Put visual ads on managed screens in delis, bodegas, laundromats, and convenience stores. Targeted by zip. Approved by store. Rotated on the tablet.
Built for local advertisers that need physical presence — not another generic social ad.
Store partners keep approval control and can run their own in-store specials.
Operators manage campaigns, assignments, tablet codes, pricing, and payout estimates.
Retail media, block by block
A local ad network built from ordinary daily stops.
Blink 5 Media is designed for small and mid-sized advertisers who need to show up close to where people buy coffee, wait for laundry, pick up groceries, and move through their own neighborhood.

How it works
Three steps from creative to screen.
Advertisers submit campaigns
Upload your creative, pick the zip codes you want to reach, choose a plan, and send it in for review.
Operators route approvals
Blink 5 Media approves the campaign, assigns matching stores, and sends it to each store queue.
Screens rotate approved content
Only running campaigns approved by that store appear on the tablet, alongside store specials.
Campaign examples
What an ad on a neighborhood screen looks like.
Six imagined creatives — built from the kinds of campaigns we've seen run well on the pilot network. Your mileage may vary, but the shape will feel familiar.
Woodfired Pizza Co.
Restaurants
Hot, authentic woodfired pizza made with real cheese and fresh dough daily — pushed to nearby screens right when the dinner rush hits.
Operator console
Built around the actual work of running a retail media network.
Campaign control
Admin can approve, reject, assign, pause, and run campaigns from one console.
Store-level consent
A rejected store approval blocks that campaign only for that location.
Tablet configuration
Every location has a display code so the right screen runs in the right store.
