Advertise on the Extended Cup Community Screen
Local Coffee. Local Businesses. Local Community.
Some of the best businesses in our community aren’t national chains with huge advertising budgets. They’re the people who live here, work here, serve here, and help make our community what it is.
At Extended Cup Cafe, we want to help people discover them.
The Extended Cup Community Screen gives local businesses, organizations, and community events an affordable way to connect with the people who visit our cafe throughout the week.
Your advertisement will become part of a rotating collection of local business advertisements, Extended Cup promotions, upcoming events, and community information displayed on our large in-house screen during regular cafe hours.
Advertising starts at just $20/month.
Put Your Business on the Big Screen
Social media is crowded. Posts disappear down the feed. Online advertising can become expensive quickly.
The Community Screen is different.
Your advertisement is displayed right here at Extended Cup, where customers are enjoying coffee, grabbing lunch, meeting friends, having conversations, working, and spending time in our community.
Our screen runs a continuous rotation during regular cafe hours, with paid advertisements generally cycling approximately every 15–20 minutes.
No complicated algorithms. No bidding for clicks.
Just an affordable opportunity to put your business in front of local people.

Choose Your Brew
Different messages call for different approaches.
Whether you’re looking for an affordable way to introduce your business to our customers, need more time to communicate your message, or want the added exposure of appearing more frequently, we’ve created several options to choose from.
☕ LATTE — $20/month
30 seconds • Once per rotation
A simple and affordable way to get your business onto the Community Screen.
Perfect for a clear message, recognizable brand, special offer, or simple call to action.
A GREAT STARTING PACKAGE!
☕ AMERICANO — $35/month
60 seconds • Once per rotation
Need a little more time?
The Americano gives you a full minute of screen time during each rotation, making it a great option for advertisements containing multiple products, services, event information, or a longer message.
BEST FOR LONGER MESSAGES
☕ ESPRESSO — $40/month
30 seconds • Twice per rotation
Short. Focused. Repeated.
The Espresso gives you two 30-second placements during each rotation, increasing the frequency with which customers may encounter your message.
BEST FOR REPEATED EXPOSURE
☕ DOUBLE SHOT — $70/month
60 seconds • Twice per rotation
More time. More frequency.
Double Shot combines a full 60-second advertisement with two placements during each rotation for businesses looking for our maximum available Community Screen exposure.
MAXIMUM EXPOSURE
Advertising space is limited. Rotation times are approximate and may vary based on the number of participating advertisers and Extended Cup promotional content. Placement does not guarantee a specific number of views, impressions, leads, or other results.
Static or Video? Same Price.
Have a great graphic?
Send it.
Have a professionally produced video?
Send that instead.
We don’t charge extra just because your advertisement is a video.
Community Screen pricing is based on the amount of screen time and frequency you purchase—not whether you submit a static graphic or video.
Video advertisements must be provided as MP4 files and will be displayed without audio.
Because music and other audio may already be playing inside the cafe, we cannot accommodate advertisements requiring sound. We also discourage live-action videos that depend heavily on closed captions or rapidly changing text, since customers may be viewing the screen from across the room.
Simple. Visual. Easy to understand.
Those advertisements will generally work best.
Who Can Advertise?
The Extended Cup Community Screen is designed primarily to promote legitimate businesses and organizations serving our local community.
This can include:
- Locally owned businesses
- Local owners of franchise businesses
- Contractors and home-service companies
- Realtors and other professional services
- Retailers
- Personal-care businesses
- Photographers and creative services
- Nonprofit organizations
- Community events
- Special events hosted by local churches and ministries
Advertisers may be asked to provide information verifying that they are operating as a legitimate business or organization.
Discounted or complimentary placement for qualifying nonprofit organizations and community announcements may be offered at the discretion of Extended Cup Cafe.
Churches and ministries are welcome to submit advertisements for special events such as concerts, conferences, community events, and similar activities. We do not accept paid advertisements promoting regular weekly church services.
All advertisers and advertising content are subject to approval.
Your Ad. Your Design.
Extended Cup Cafe does not provide graphic design or video production services.
Advertisers are responsible for submitting finished, display-ready media.
Static Advertising
Accepted formats: JPG or PNG
Video Advertising
Accepted format: MP4
Video advertisements must not require audio.
Dimensions
All advertisements should be created in a 16:9 widescreen format.
Minimum: 1600 × 900 pixels
Recommended: 1920 × 1080 pixels
Media that does not meet our technical requirements or contains colors, layouts, text, or other elements that do not display clearly on our equipment may be rejected or returned for modification.
Want to Use a QR Code?
Absolutely.
QR codes can be a great way to turn someone seeing your advertisement into someone visiting your website, viewing your menu, following your social media account, scheduling an appointment, or learning more about a special offer.
QR codes must already be incorporated into your finished advertising media.
Extended Cup does not create, manage, or track QR codes. However, we will test QR codes before adding an advertisement to the rotation to make sure they can be successfully scanned from our display.
Frequently Asked Questions
• How much does it cost to advertise?
Community Screen advertising starts at $20 per month.
Final pricing depends on the length of your advertisement and how frequently it appears within the rotation. See our advertising packages above for current options.
• How often will my advertisement appear?
Paid advertisements generally cycle approximately every 15–20 minutes during normal operation.
Exact rotation times may vary depending on the number and length of paid advertisements and Extended Cup promotional content in the rotation.
• How long will my advertisement be displayed?
Packages are available with either 30-second or 60-second placements and either one or two appearances per rotation.
• When are advertisements displayed?
The Community Screen operates during Extended Cup Cafe’s regular business hours, currently Wednesday–Saturday, 8:00 AM–1:00 PM.
Paid advertising is not displayed during Unify Church worship services.
Operating hours and display schedules are subject to change.
• Do I have to commit to three months?
No.
One-month advertising is available and runs for four weeks from the date your advertisement is added to the rotation. This is particularly useful for advertising special events, sales, grand openings, vendor fairs, and other time-sensitive opportunities.
For businesses seeking ongoing advertising, we recommend a three-month advertising period.
Three-month campaigns generally follow calendar months. Advertisements beginning during the second or third week of a month may be eligible for prorated pricing. Advertisements submitted late in the month may be held until the beginning of the following month.
• How many advertisers do you accept?
Advertising space is limited so we can maintain a reasonable rotation time for participating businesses.
The number of available positions will vary depending on the length and frequency of advertisements currently in the rotation.
• Can another business in my industry advertise too?
Yes.
We cannot guarantee category or industry exclusivity. More than one business providing similar products or services may participate in the Community Screen at the same time, subject to available advertising space.
• Can I change my advertisement?
Yes.
Replacement media must meet the same technical and content requirements as the original advertisement and will be subject to approval.
When submitting a replacement, please tell us whether the change is permanent or temporary.
For example, you may temporarily replace your regular business advertisement with a seasonal promotion and return to the original advertisement after the promotion ends.
• How quickly can my advertisement be added or changed?
New or replacement advertisements received by 5:00 PM Friday will be reviewed and, if approved, added to the Community Screen by the following Wednesday morning.
Media requiring corrections or modifications may take longer.
• Can I choose specific days or times for my advertisement?
No.
Advertising packages provide placement within our general Community Screen rotation rather than specific days, times, positions, or individual impressions.
• Do you guarantee how many people will see my advertisement?
No.
Community Screen advertising provides placement within our rotation during Extended Cup Cafe’s operating hours.
We cannot guarantee cafe attendance, individual views or impressions, QR-code scans, leads, sales, customer engagement, or other advertising results.
• When is payment due?
For one-month advertising, payment must be received in full before your advertisement is added to the rotation.
For three-month advertising, payment for the initial three-month period must be received in full before your advertisement is added.
During month two, we will send an invoice for the following three-month advertising period. Paying that invoice reserves your continued placement.
If the renewal invoice is not paid before your current advertising period ends, your advertisement will be removed from the rotation when the current period expires.
• What if I cancel?
Payments for the current advertising period are nonrefundable.
If you have already paid a three-month renewal invoice but decide not to renew before your current three-month advertising period ends, the renewal payment will be refunded and your advertisement will be removed when the current period concludes.
• What happens if the Community Screen isn’t operating?
Occasional interruptions may occur because of equipment maintenance, technical issues, weather closures, holidays, changes in cafe hours, or circumstances beyond our control.
Brief or occasional interruptions do not qualify for refunds or credits.
If circumstances prevent advertisements from being displayed for an extended period (generally more than two consecutive weeks) Extended Cup Cafe may extend the affected advertising period at no additional charge.
Advertising payments are not refundable because of temporary display downtime.
• Are there restrictions on advertising content?
Yes.
Extended Cup Cafe reserves the right to approve or decline any advertiser or advertisement.
Advertising must be appropriate for a family-friendly environment. We will not accept advertisements containing misleading, offensive, sexually explicit, or otherwise inappropriate content.
Because Extended Cup Cafe operates as a ministry of Unify Church, we also reserve the right to decline advertising for businesses, organizations, products, services, events, or messages that are inconsistent with our beliefs, mission, or values.
Acceptance of an advertisement does not necessarily constitute an endorsement by Extended Cup Cafe or Unify Church of the advertiser, organization, products, or services being advertised.
Let’s Help Our Community Discover Your Business
We’re local, too.
We know that getting the word out about a small business, service, organization, or upcoming event isn’t always easy. And a small business shouldn’t need a huge advertising budget just to get noticed.
The Extended Cup Community Screen is one small way we can help connect the people who walk through our doors with the businesses and organizations serving the community around us.
And it starts at just $20/month.
