Can I target specific markets or neighborhoods?

Yes, within what each format allows. In Kansas City, shelter posters let you choose specific locations. Buses are assigned across the KCATA system each day, so bus ads build presence across the city rather than on one street. Tell our team which neighborhoods matter and we will recommend the formats that fit.

What types of transit advertising does Adsposure offer?

Adsposure offers a variety of out of home advertising solutions, ranging from interior and exterior bus advertising to street furniture and stations. In Kansas City, that means Full Wraps, Full Sides, Bus Billboards, Bus Banners, Supertails, Full Backs, interior cards, ceiling banners, interior takeovers, shelter posters and paratransit exterior ads.

How much does transit advertising cost?

Cost depends on the format, how many vehicles or locations you book, the market and how long you run. Graphics are produced for each campaign, so production is a separate cost. Campaigns run a minimum of four weeks, and we recommend three months or more to build meaningful presence. Tell us your goal and timeline and we will show you what is available and what it costs.

How do I choose the right advertising format?

Start with your goal. Shelters put your message where people wait. Buses give community-wide reach. Interior cards reach riders during the trip. Our team will match the mix to your goal and timing.

Can Adsposure support campaigns across multiple markets?

Yes. Adsposure works with transit authorities in markets from California to North Carolina, and formats vary by market. We can plan one campaign across several markets, including nearby St. Louis, Des Moines and Tulsa.

How do I get started with an Adsposure campaign?

Reach out to our team (link to the quote form). We confirm what is available, you reserve your space, our creative team adapts your artwork or builds custom creative, and the campaign is scheduled and installed. Space is first come, first served, and the first month of media and production are due when you reserve.

Why it works here

One wrap. Both sides of the state line.

A RideKC bus wrapped in your brand crosses Kansas and Missouri, through the Crossroads Arts District, past Power & Light, into Country Club Plaza. One wrap, two states, visible all day.

Unlike a billboard, one wrap covers Jazz District and River Market.
Builds repeat exposure, not a single passing glance.
One buy, two states' worth of buyers.
In front of commuters, shoppers and visitors every day KCATA's RideKC buses run.

Create Presence

Transit advertising across Kansas City

A campaign on KCATA's RideKC buses technically spans two states, Kansas and Missouri, but with Adsposure, it's one contract, one creative file, one install. We handle the complexity of a multi-state transit system so you don't have to think about where the state line actually is.

That's the value of working with a specialist: fewer moving parts, not more. One team manages your Kansas City campaign start to finish, whether it's running through the Jazz District, Power & Light, or across the river into Kansas.
