Looking to earn some extra money without changing your day-to-day schedule?
You can make passive income by putting advertisements on your car. The best part is it takes minimal up-front work.

When you get accepted for a campaign, a professional will come to wrap your car with the ads and you must keep it on for a set amount of time. Then you drive around like normal except now you're making passive income.
If you don't mind having ads on your vehicle, making money doesn't get much easier than this.
Putting ads on your car can make in the ballpark of $100-$300 per month.

Pros of Car Advertising
Cons of Car Advertising:
How Much Can You Make?
Putting ads on your car can make in the ballpark of $100-$300 per month. Generally, the more you drive the more you will make.
However, not every person qualifies because they look for people who drive a lot. If you commute daily to work, are a rideshare driver, or just drive a lot, you're more likely to get a campaign.
What Companies Will Pay You?
There are a lot of car wrap advertising agencies online. The two most popular options are definitely Carvertise and Wrapify.
1. Carvertise
Carvertise started in 2012 and they are one of the top car wrap advertising agencies.
Their website says they will pay $300-$1200 per campaign. These are the requirements according to their website:
- Drive at least 30 miles per day
- Have a clean driving record
- Own a 2008 model car or newer
- Factory finish paint job
2. Wrapify
With Wrapify, you login to their mobile when you want to drive. The app will track your distance and pay you for the miles you drive.
Wrapify says, "drivers can pick and choose an advertiser, as well as decide on the look of their car: full, partial or panel wrap covering." Contracts range from 3 months to 1 year and their website estimates you can make $264-$452 per month.
There are some negative reviews on their app but overall, it is a legitimate company that's been around since 2015.
3. Other Car Wrap Advertising Agencies
I included the two most popular options above but there are certainly more companies out there.
If you decide to go with another option, be aware of scams because there are some in this industry. Just do your due diligence and be aware if something seems to be too good to be true.
Final Thoughts
Typically, it takes lots of work or capital (or both) to create a stream of passive income. That's why I love the idea of putting ads on your car.
It may not lead to massive earnings, but it's still an extra $100-$300 per month.
If you want extra money to pay your car bills or other expenses, it's worth checking out.
