What Is Car Wrap Advertising?

Car wrapping offers you the chance to display your business (or someone else’s) and products on your car without the requirement for costly in-store publicizing or expensive print media.

Companies will pay you to put their logo on your car. Getting the car wrapped is typically pretty easy. Once you qualify, the car wrap company will provide you with the wrap company to do the work. Then drive as you normally do, and make money.

You can have a basic wrap with an organization name and logo on a stripe. Or get crazy and wrap the whole car or truck.

How Much Money Can I Make Advertising on My Car?

Advertising with your car is a great way to make some cash. Typically, you can make a few hundred bucks per month. It all depends on the type of advertisement on your car, the exposure you get with your car and the miles.

For example, sites like Wrapify offer over $400 a month based on a full wrap. Other sites like Carvertise pay per campaign an average of $300, which is based on size and brand. Plus Carvertise gives driver promotions from nationwide automotive companies, including Jiffy Lube, Valvoline and Pep Boys, which can save you some money.

Look Out For Car Wrap Scams

Like any good business, scams exist. The FTC advises to watch out for scams that will send you money and then have you send part of the money to another company that will wrap your car. This is typically done with the illegitimate company sending a fake check. A legit car advertising company will not make you pay for a car wrap.

To check out a company, look them up on legit sources like the Better Business Bureau to see if they are a viable company.

When going through the application process, make sure they have a viable application process including gathering information about your car.
