The opportunity

A simple idea with room to go far.

DriveThru.ad aims to make a fragmented advertising opportunity easier to discover, manage, and scale — for both sides of the partnership.

For brands & agencies

Explore future advertising placements across participating drive-thru restaurants, instead of arranging each location separately.

For restaurant hosts

Explore a new use for suitable drive-thru advertising surfaces, with a fixed placement fee when an approved position is occupied.

For coordinated campaigns

Select several relevant locations, then work with one central platform for campaign arrangements, production and placement.

How it could work

Many drive-thrus.
One simpler way to advertise.

The intended experience when the marketplace launches — subject to participating locations and available placements.

Discover locations

Browse participating restaurants by city, area and available advertising positions.

Build a campaign

Choose locations that suit your audience and combine multiple placements through one platform.

Put the message up

DriveThru.ad would coordinate campaign details, printing and approved installation with participating hosts.

Not accepting ad bookings yet. We're gathering early interest from businesses, agencies and drive-thru restaurant operators as the network takes shape.

For restaurant operators

Your drive-thru could do more.

We're exploring partnerships with drive-thru restaurants that have suitable, approved advertising space. The idea is straightforward: allow selected placements to be offered to advertisers while your team stays focused on serving customers.

✓Fixed host fees for approved advertising positions when those positions are booked and in use — not a revenue-sharing calculation.
✓One central point of contact for advertising enquiries and campaign coordination.
✓Production and installation coordination through DriveThru.ad, subject to the eventual host agreement.
✓Your approval matters. Site suitability, permissions, safety, maintenance and damage procedures will be addressed before placements begin.

Built in stages

Start tangible.
Think bigger.

We intend to start with simple, practical displays and expand formats when the network and economics support it.

Planned first phase

Printed ad placements

Professionally prepared printed advertising sheets or panels displayed on suitable, approved drive-thru surfaces. Campaign arrangements would include printing and placement coordination.

Possible future phase

Digital advertising displays

Digital screens and additional reporting or campaign tools may be introduced later. These features are ideas for future development, not currently available products.

The essentials

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Here's what we can share while DriveThru.ad is in its early development stage.

Can I book advertising space today?

Not yet. DriveThru.ad is in preparation. The early-interest list is for launch updates and potential partnerships only; it does not reserve inventory or create an advertising contract.

Which restaurants and cities will be available?

Locations will depend on participating restaurant partners and approved advertising positions. We'll share initial markets and inventory as they become confirmed. We are not publishing a live location map yet.

Will advertisers be able to use more than one location?

Yes — that is a central part of the planned model. Advertisers would be able to compare and select placements across participating locations, with DriveThru.ad as one point of contact.

What would participating restaurants receive?

The proposed host model uses a fixed fee for each approved position while it is occupied by a paid campaign, rather than a percentage of advertising sales. Rates and contractual details are not yet finalized.

Who handles printing and installing ads?

Our planned service includes coordinating printing, installation, removal and routine replacement according to each campaign and host agreement. Final conditions, including damage and vandalism procedures, will be agreed before any placements are installed.

What will advertising cost?

Pricing will depend on location, placement type, campaign arrangements and selected locations. We have not published rates or begun taking payments.
