For brands and media agencies
Reach your customers where they shop, dine and pay.
Tap Ads is a new digital out-of-home channel which displays advertising on the customer-facing screens of POS systems and payment terminals. Tap places your brand in front of your customers whether they're out for their morning coffee, their grocery top up, sushi with the kids or drinks with friends.
Why it works
Most advertising gets skipped, scrolled past or glanced at. This is a screen the customer is already looking at, at the moment they are paying.
- 15-30 seconds dwell time
- The average time a customer spends at the counter placing an order.
- Targeted
- Pick the locations and areas your customers visit.
- Brand safe
- No feeds, no trolls, no unpredictable comments.
- Frequency
- Regulars come back to the same counter, day after day, week after week.
- Captive
- Full screen while they wait to order. No scrolling, no skipping, no ad-blockers.
- Trackable
- Impressions* come from verified in-store transactions.
Where your ads run
Target your customers by specific locations, suburbs, merchant types and demographics, or run a nationwide campaign at all participating locations. Your ads appear, front and centre, on the customer-facing display, all day, every day.

*An impression is one transaction completed at a participating location while your campaign is running; transaction numbers are daily averages and vary by location, category and day of week. Campaign delivery is indicative - the number of participating locations and trading days can vary, and while we make every effort to deliver your campaign as booked we cannot guarantee it. Any undelivered days are credited. Minimum booking two weeks and one location.
