Why advertise with us
Hyper-local
Your ad only shows to users near your business. Not citywide noise — real proximity.
Captive & idle
Stranded drivers are on their phone, waiting. Nowhere to go. Nothing to scroll past.
Open hours match
Your pin is active during your business hours, reaching people when you're actually open.
High intent
Someone stuck 1 block from your restaurant hasn't eaten in hours. That's your customer.
