Unknown to many is that there are transit advertising companies that will pay big bucks to place adverts (also known as auto-wraps) on individuals' vehicles.They recruit average car owners willing to have auto wraps plastered over their vehicles, and in return, the car owners get paid up to $500 a month to drive (sometimes more). Some companies even give away free cars.
What’s the catch? Well, there is no shortage of people looking to take advantage of this opportunity, making it difficult to get an application accepted. However, it is not impossible, and so with some perseverance and good fortune, you could be one of the lucky drivers to earn money for driving.

Some Things to Consider

Before beginning the quest to get paid to drive with auto-wraps on your car, consider the following:

You must be at least 18 years old and with a valid drivers license.
You must have an excellent driving record and a clean car.
You will usually be required to drive at least 800 miles a month. This is sometimes tracked with a GPS system that the company installs in your car.
You will have to enter into a contract.
Insurance and maintenance is your responsibility.
The ad will be on your car 24/7, wherever you drive, and cannot be removed.

What the Companies Look for in Applicants

To get paid to wrap your car with advertising, you will need to meet certain requirements. Asides from the requirements stated above, there are 4 main determining factors that the transit advertising companies look at when selecting drivers:

Where You Live: Living in a city or high populated area is the best.
Where You Drive: If your route to work consist of freeways and other high
traffic streets, it is a big advantage to you.
How Much You Drive: The companies will be looking to see how much you
drive per month. More driving equals more advertising.
Where You Park: High visibility being a plus. If you live in the middle of nowhere, rarely leave the house and keep your car in the garage, then the odds are stacked against you.

How to Apply

To use your car for advertising, you will need to contact a transit advertising company. There are a few of these, some national and some locally based. A handfull of these "paid to drive" companies will advertise on the internet, whereas many simply do not need to due to the high number of applicants they receive.

Search the yellow pages and online for transit advertising directories.

Beware of Paid to Drive Scams

There are many websites claiming to offer lists of “paid to drive opportunities” for a fee. These are not known to be especially useful, and you will more than likely end up paying money for no results. If you do chose to sign up on one of these websites, choose one with a money back guarantee.
You should never have to pay to earn money for driving. If you are told you need to pay some kind of deposit, or sign up with an affiliate program, chances are it is a scam.
