Intersection, an experience-driven out-of-home media and technology company, and LinkNYC, the public-private partnership that created the largest free public Wi-Fi network in the world, announced the official launch of the LinkNYC Self-Service Ad Portal. Featuring expanded free offerings and a lower cost of entry for paid campaigns, advertising on LinkNYC is now easier than ever for New York City’s small business community.
Intersection’s launch of the portal includes an enhancement of LinkNYC’s LinkLocal free advertising program. Eligible New York City-based community organizations and local small businesses can now display ads on six LinkNYC screens at a time-up from four-at no cost. The update also includes customizable advertising templates and colors, the ability to add a logo or QR code, and an interactive map to help advertisers select optimal LinkNYC locations.
“These upgrades to LinkLocal will provide hundreds more community-based businesses and nonprofits with opportunities to amplify their messaging through the most coveted out-of-home advertising space in New York City,” said Margaux Knee, Chief Administrative Officer of LinkNYC. “In 2024 alone, LinkNYC provided over $4 million in free advertising space, and we’re just getting started.”

LinkDirect allows advertisers to select specific screen locations and campaign dates. Users can upload custom creatives and include a QR code to boost engagement. To celebrate National Small Business Month, advertisers can enjoy a 20% discount [code: SHOPSMALL20] on their first order through LinkDirect during the month of May.
“LinkNYC is the ideal platform for New York City’s vibrant small business community,” said Jonathan Fuller, Chief Revenue Officer at Intersection. “With thousands of LinkNYC kiosks across all five boroughs, we’re excited to help local businesses of all sizes and budgets connect with their neighborhoods in a meaningful way.”
