Be seen by people choosing their screen
Athiwalls keeps no more than 3 sponsors at a time. Each gets a quiet, clearly labelled card in the moment people pause: right after they’ve picked a wallpaper they like.
Where it appears
Right where people decide.
Your card appears in four places, always next to something people chose to look at. It’s a hairline card with your logo, your name, one line and a link: deliberate and calm, never a banner. It follows the light and dark themes, and nothing on it blinks or slides in for attention.
Under the Download button
On every wallpaper page, beside the wallpaper someone has just chosen.
After the first row of a gallery
Across Explore, the ten mood collections and search results.
Halfway through a guide
Between two sections of each guide, where readers pause.
In the footer
At the foot of every page on the site, apart from this one.
A page never carries more than three sponsored or ad slots, and never shows the same sponsor twice. On the home page, the thin “Backed by” line under the menu takes the place of a card.
What you send us
Four things and two dates.
- Your name, up to 40 characters.
- One line about what you make, up to 90 characters. Plain words work best here.
- A square logo, at least 80 × 80 pixels, or an SVG. It’s shown at 40 pixels with rounded corners.
- The address the card links to. It must start with https.
- A start and an end date. The card runs for every day in between.
Who we say yes to
Brands people are glad to find.
Apps and tools, design resources, stationery, music, games, independent makers: things you’d be happy to find next to a wallpaper you like. We say no to gambling, trading and crypto schemes, adult content, miracle health claims, and anything that pretends to be something it isn’t.
Sponsors don’t buy opinions. A card never changes what goes in the gallery, and the terms of use tell readers so.
Rates
An early rate, while we grow.
Athiwalls is young, so slots are priced for that and the price rises with traffic. Write to sponsor@athiwalls.com and we’ll reply with the current rate alongside this month’s visitor and download numbers, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Questions sponsors ask
- Is a sponsor card an ad?
- Yes, and it says so. Every card is labelled “Sponsored”, and its link is marked rel="sponsored", so readers and search engines both know it is paid for.
- How many sponsors run at the same time?
- Never more than 3, and no page shows the same sponsor twice. With two or three running, they take turns page by page, so each gets an even share of every placement.
- Can my card appear only next to certain wallpapers?
- Not at the moment. Cards are spread across every page with a slot, so you reach people browsing every mood, not just one.
- How do I measure the visits a card sends?
- We link to the exact address you give us, so you can add your own UTM tags or a dedicated landing page and see the visits in your own analytics.
- When does a card start and stop showing?
- You choose the start and end dates, and the card shows from the first day to the last by each visitor’s own calendar, then comes down by itself. Send us the details at least two days before the start, so the card is on the site in time.
