The details

Questions, answered plainly.

How much does advertising cost?

Venues set their own ad rates. Your booking total depends on the screens, dates, time windows, and number of ad spots you select. There is no fixed weekly PiAds advertising package. Review the exact total before paying; availability and venue approval apply.

Can I try PiAds without ads?

New accounts can start with a 14-day trial for up to two screens, with no ads required. After the trial, screens with qualifying marketplace ad slots can use the Partner plan for $0. Ad-free signage is $10 per screen per month or $100 per screen per year. Your dashboard shows each screen’s eligibility and billing.

What makes the Partner plan free?

Partner screens enable approved marketplace ad slots. Advertising funds the platform, so the signage software costs the venue $0 while the screen remains eligible and participating. See how the free plan compares to other free tiers at piads.co/free-digital-signage.

What if I don't want ads on my screens?

You can still use PiAds. Screens that don't enable approved ad slots are billed at $10 per screen per month, or $100 per screen per year. Screens become eligible for the free Partner plan when they offer qualifying ad slots; check your dashboard for billing status.

How much ad space do I have to enable?

You choose the inventory you make available and can change it as your venue needs evolve. Your own menus, announcements, promotions, and programming stay in your control.

Can I reject an ad?

Yes. Review bookings yourself and decline those that do not fit your venue, or enable optional Instant Book for automatic approval. You control your ad availability and content guidelines.

How does the 70% share work?

Venues keep 70% of cleared ad revenue and PiAds retains 30%. A cleared $100 booking means $70 for the venue and $30 for PiAds. Earnings depend on advertiser demand and campaign delivery; enabling ad slots does not guarantee bookings or income.

Is ad revenue guaranteed?

No. Earnings depend on advertiser demand, your location, audience, available inventory, and the campaigns you approve.

Do I need special hardware?

No proprietary player is required. PiAds supports common options including Fire TV, a web browser, Android, and Raspberry Pi, so you can usually use hardware you already own.

Free software. Your screen. Your call.

Launch your first screen, choose your ad availability, and keep 70% when an approved campaign runs.
