How do brands advertise on Lidquid?

Brands sponsor a batch of laptop lids in one city and pay only for verified scans, not impressions. Every owner approves the brand before the sticker ships, so the placement is welcomed rather than tolerated.

Turn your laptop lid into income.

Q: Will the sticker wreck my laptop?

No. Lidquid uses removable vinyl designed for laptop lids. It peels off clean and leaves zero residue.

Q: Do I get a say in which brand goes on my lid?

You approve every brand before anything ships. You see the design, the brand, and the rate — and you can say no for any reason.

Q: When does my city open?

Cities open in order of waitlist demand — joining the list is the vote. Pilot spots go to the top of the list first.

Q: Do I have to do anything once the sticker's on?

No. No posting, no follower count, no promoting. You work from your café like you already do.

Q: What if I want out?

Peel it off. Done. No lock-in, no minimum term, no fees. You keep everything you've earned.

Lidquid rents the back of your laptop to a brand you approve. Strangers scan the QR out of curiosity, the brand pays for real attention, and you earn on every verified scan.

Fair questions.

the stuff everyone asks before joining

How much can I actually earn?

It depends on where your laptop lives. Each brand sets a rate per verified scan, and a lid that sits in a busy café five days a week earns far more than one that stays home. We'll publish real pilot numbers once the first city has run — no made-up projections.

Will the sticker wreck my laptop?

No. We use removable vinyl designed for laptop lids — the same class of material as premium decals. It peels off clean, leaves zero residue, and doesn't care about your stickers-underneath situation because it goes on top of bare lid only.

Do I get a say in which brand goes on my lid?

You approve every brand before anything ships. You see the design, the brand, and the rate — and you can say no for any reason, or swap out at the end of a campaign. It's your lid; we're just the agent.

What counts as a "verified scan"?

A real person, on a real phone, scanning your QR for the first time. Repeat scans from the same device, bots, and — sorry — you scanning it yourself in a mirror don't count. Verification is how brands trust the numbers enough to pay properly.

When does my city open?

Cities open in order of waitlist demand — joining the list literally is the vote. When your city crosses the threshold, everyone there gets one email, and pilot spots go to the top of the list first.

Do I have to do anything once the sticker's on?

That's the whole point — no. No posting, no follower count, no promoting. You work from your café like you already do; curiosity does the rest. The only thing you might have to do is answer "wait, what is that?" from the table next to you.

What if I want out?

Peel it off. Done. No lock-in, no minimum term, no fees. You keep everything you've earned up to that day.
