Terms of Service
Last updated: October 17, 2026
1. Agreement
These terms are a contract between you and nomad Media Group, LLC ("nomad"). They govern the website, the dashboards, the driver app, and every campaign booked through the platform. Each campaign also has an order (for advertisers) or an offer (for drivers) that states the specific corridor, term, pay, and dates; if an order or offer conflicts with these terms, the order or offer controls for that campaign. By creating an account, accepting an offer, or placing an order you agree to these terms.
2. What nomad does
nomad is a marketplace and service company. We match advertisers with trailers, arrange wrap production and installation through independent installers, meter delivery with location data, report results, collect advertiser payments, and pay drivers. nomad is not a motor carrier, broker, or freight forwarder and has no role in what you haul, who you haul for, or how you drive. Drivers and fleets are independent businesses, not employees or agents of nomad.
3. Eligibility and accounts
- You must be at least 18 and authorized to act for the business you register.
- Drivers must own the trailer they list, or hold written permission from the owner (including a carrier whose lease covers the equipment) to place advertising on it, and must keep valid operating authority and insurance for the term of any campaign.
- Keep your account details accurate and your credentials private. You are responsible for activity under your account.
- We may decline, suspend, or close accounts that provide false information, violate these terms, or create safety or brand-safety risk.
4. Driver commitments
- Offers: you may accept or decline any offer for any reason with no penalty. Accepting creates a binding commitment for that campaign's term.
- Delivery: during a campaign you will run the matched corridor often enough to meet the delivery floor in your offer, keep the app's location sharing on while running that lane, and complete the monthly photo check-in by the 5th of each month.
- Care of the wrap: keep the wrapped trailer in service and reasonable condition, do not alter, cover, or remove the wrap, and report damage within 48 hours through the app.
- Independence: you remain free to work with any broker or carrier and to haul any lawful freight. We never direct your dispatch; the only requirement is the corridor delivery floor you agreed to.
- Leaving: between campaigns you may close your account with 30 days' notice. During a campaign, tell us as early as you can; we will arrange a replacement trailer and coordinate removal, and you are paid for the months you delivered.
- Taxes: you are an independent contractor responsible for your own taxes. We issue IRS Form 1099 where required and need a valid W-9 before the first payout.
5. Advertiser commitments
- You own or are licensed to use everything in your creative and it complies with our content policy and with federal, state, and local law in every state the corridor crosses, including rules for alcohol, cannabis, tobacco, firearms, gambling, political, and financial advertising.
- Creative must preserve the trailer's required DOT markings and conspicuity tape. We will flag layouts that do not.
- You approve the final proof before production. Changes after production is ordered are a new production charge.
- Drivers may decline your creative; we will offer other trailers on the corridor.
6. Installation, loaner trailers, and removal
- We schedule installation with an independent installer on the driver's lane and provide a loaner trailer for the install window so the driver keeps working. If a loaner is unavailable and the driver loses a working day because of us, we pay the downtime amount stated in the driver's offer.
- Before and after photos are taken at installation and removal and are part of the campaign record.
- Removal at campaign end is at nomad's cost. If removal damages factory paint because of installer error, we pay for professional repair. Pre-existing damage documented in the installation photos is excluded.
- Production timelines in orders are targets; weather, installer capacity, and freight schedules can move install dates. We tell both parties as soon as a date changes.
7. Verified miles, impressions, and reports
- Verified miles are miles the location data shows the trailer traveled on the matched corridor, after map-matching and the removal of implausible or duplicated points. Miles recorded while location sharing is off, or that fail our plausibility checks, are not verified.
- Eligible miles for per-mile driver pay are verified miles up to 10,000 per month.
- Delivery floor: each trailer-month carries a floor of 6,000 verified on-corridor miles. Below the floor the advertiser receives a pro-rata credit for that trailer-month.
- Impressions are estimates modeled from verified miles and public traffic counts using the method published on our site. They are not counted or audited, are not a guarantee, and are not the basis for credits; verified miles are.
- Disputes about miles or reports must be raised within 10 business days of the monthly report. We will provide the underlying segment-level data to both parties and decide within 10 business days.
8. Payments and payouts
- Advertisers pay production before installation and each month of media in advance. Online payments are not yet available (coming soon); when they launch, advertiser payments will be processed by Stripe. Until then, how to pay is confirmed in your order. Late payment pauses the campaign and any report delivery.
- Driver payouts are planned and not yet active. The planned payout method is PayPal Payouts: you connect a PayPal or Venmo account to receive payouts. Once they launch, the planned schedule is payment within five business days after each month closes, once the month's check-in is complete. Each payout carries a $0.25 PayPal Payouts fee, paid by you and shown as a separate payout-fee line in your pay statement (it isn't one of the deductions below). Pay is the fixed base plus the per-mile amount on eligible verified miles, plus any bonuses stated in the offer, less amounts you have agreed we may deduct (for example an unreturned loaner).
- We may hold a payout while we investigate suspected location spoofing, a missing check-in, or a damage report, and will tell you why and what resolves it.
- Advertiser funds are held until the campaign runs. If nomad stops operating, prepaid media for undelivered months is refunded.
- Agencies: an agency that books a campaign for an advertiser client receives a commission of 10% of the net media amount that client pays, not including production, installation or taxes. The commission is paid monthly, within 15 days after the client's invoice is paid. No commission is owed on unpaid or refunded invoices. Commission is net of any credits or partial refunds on that invoice; a refund after commission is paid comes off the next commission. If an agency books a campaign for an eligible founding advertiser, the advertiser keeps the founding 10% discount, and the agency's commission is 10% of the net media amount the client actually pays after that discount.
- Founding advertisers: there are 25 founding spots. Spots go, while available, in the order advertisers complete sign-up and verification, and founding advertisers get 10% off advertising, not wrap production, applied automatically and confirmed in the quote. The founding discount can be combined with the agency commission. A founding spot can be revoked for duplicate or fake accounts, fraud, or breach of these Terms, and a revoked spot can be reused. A revoke removes the founding discount from campaigns not yet invoiced. Amounts already invoiced stand.
9. Cancellation and refunds
- Before production is ordered: an advertiser may cancel and receives a full refund of prepaid media; any design work already delivered is billed at the order's stated rate.
- After production is ordered: production charges are non-refundable. Prepaid media for months that have not started is refunded less one month's media as a cancellation fee.
- If nomad cannot deliver (for example, no replacement trailer within 14 days of a driver leaving), the advertiser receives a credit or refund for the undelivered period, their choice.
- Drivers are paid in full for every completed month; there is no clawback for a campaign the advertiser cancels.
10. Damage, insurance, and responsibility
- Normal wear, weather, and road debris damage to the wrap is nomad's responsibility to repair or replace. Deliberate damage or damage from an undisclosed accident is the driver's.
- nomad carries coverage for wrap materials in its care and general liability for its operations. Drivers maintain their own commercial auto and cargo insurance and must tell their insurer about advertising wraps if their policy requires it.
- Each party is responsible for its own acts. nomad is not liable for a driver's operation of the vehicle or for freight, and drivers are not liable for the content of an advertiser's creative.
11. Brand safety, suspension, and removal
We may pause or end a campaign, remove a wrap, or suspend an account to address a legal requirement, a safety issue, a material breach, or conduct that damages an advertiser's brand or nomad's reputation. Where we end a campaign for a reason that is not the driver's fault, the driver is paid for completed months and the removal is at our cost.
12. Intellectual property and data
Advertisers keep ownership of their creative and grant nomad and the matched driver a license to reproduce and display it on the trailer for the campaign and in campaign reports and installation photos. nomad owns the platform, its impression methodology, and aggregated, de-identified delivery data. Drivers own their location data; our use of it is described in the Privacy Policy.
13. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The platform is provided as is. Except for the specific commitments in Sections 6 through 10, nomad makes no warranty about campaign results. To the extent the law allows, nomad's total liability for any claim is limited to the amounts paid to nomad (by an advertiser) or by nomad (to a driver) for the campaign concerned in the 12 months before the claim, and nomad is not liable for indirect or consequential losses. Nothing here limits liability for fraud, gross negligence, or anything that cannot be limited by law.
14. Indemnification
Advertisers will defend nomad and drivers against claims that their creative infringes a third party's rights or violates advertising law. Drivers will defend nomad against claims arising from their operation of the vehicle or their freight.
15. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Idaho. Before filing a claim, each party agrees to raise the issue in writing and work in good faith for 30 days to resolve it. Claims that remain are brought in the state or federal courts in Ada County, Idaho, except that either party may seek an injunction anywhere to protect intellectual property or safety.
16. Changes
We may update these terms. Material changes take effect 14 days after we email account holders; they do not change the pay, price, or term of a campaign already accepted or ordered. Continued use after the effective date is acceptance.
