CAPTIVE ENGAGEMENT: The Future of Taxi-Based DOOH Advertising

The Future of DOOH

Every taxi journey is a chosen moment, 10–45 minutes where people can relax, disconnect and engage fully with what’s in front of them. Our platform makes the most of that time, turning our in-taxi screens into immersive brand experiences that stay with people long after the journey ends.

FREQUENCY ASKED QUESTIONS

Taxi advertising in Botswana uses digital screens inside combi taxis to display your brand message directly to passengers during their journey. It transforms everyday travel into a high-impact advertising environment where attention is guaranteed.

Combi taxis provide:

– A captive audience with minimal distractions

Yes. Campaigns can be targeted by:

  • City (e.g. Gaborone, Francistown, Maun)

This allows you to reach the exact audience that matters most to your business.

Your advert is displayed on digital screens inside combi taxis across key locations such as Gaborone, Francistown, Maun, Palapye, Serowe, Mochudi, Mahalapye, Molepolole, Ghanzi, and Kasane/Kazungula.
Passengers view your content throughout their journey — typically between 10–45 minutes — ensuring strong message recall.

Our network delivers tens of thousands of daily passenger impressions across Botswana, with consistent exposure in high-traffic commuter routes.

Because passengers are seated and engaged, your advert benefits from longer viewing time and stronger recall than roadside advertising.
