Buy a tasteful, on-brand sponsorship online in about 90 seconds. Local businesses only — no display ads, no banners, no programmatic, no national chains, no sales call. Pick a scarce local position, write it in our builder, and it runs.
You fill the words. We render the design.
01
Choose a scarce, dated, local position — a day in the briefing, a week on a neighbourhood page, a guide. Local businesses only. The price is on the card.
02
Fill the fields — headline, a line of copy, a link, one logo. A live preview renders it on-brand as you type. You fill the words; we render the design.
03
Pay online and your position is booked for the date you picked. No proofs to chase, no invoices to wait on. It goes live on schedule.
Scarce, dated, local. Transparent prices — what you see is what you pay.
Your ad goes out in the morning email and sits at the top of the homepage. Only one business runs each day — that day is yours alone.
Morning email + homepage
Your ad stays on one neighbourhood's page for the week. Reach the people who live and shop nearby, instead of paying to reach all of Victoria.
One neighbourhood page
Your ad runs on one of our most-read guides — Best Patios, Best Coffee, Moving to Victoria — the pages people look up again and again.
One guide page
Your event sits at the top of the events calendar while it's on, plus a mention in the weekend roundup email.
Events calendar + weekend roundup
A paid post on the community board — sales, garage finds, classes, shout-outs. Cheap, fast, and seen by people who scroll the board daily.
Community board
A 30-day listing on the jobs board, syndicated once into the newsletter. Hire someone who already reads Victoria every morning.
Jobs board + one newsletter mention
Prices in CAD. No setup fees, no minimums.
Capital Daily is independent Victoria news, supported by readers and local advertisers. The builder won't let the wrong thing through — fixed type, fixed layout, a label that can't be removed. An editor still reads every unit before it runs.
No. Capital Daily ad space is for local businesses and organizations rooted in Greater Victoria or the South Island.
No sales call. Pick a placement, write it in the builder, and pay — the whole thing takes about 90 seconds. An editor gives it a quick read before it goes live, usually the same day.
It won't. You don't design anything — you fill in a headline, a line of copy, a link, and one logo. Our template renders it in Capital Daily's house style, the same as every other unit on the site.
Yes. The Neighbourhood Partner card is scoped to a single page — Fernwood, James Bay, Oak Bay, Cook Street Village, and the rest. You reach the people on that block, not the whole island.
Each placement shows its next open date, and positions are scarce on purpose — one Sponsor of the Day, one partner per neighbourhood per week. If a date is taken, the builder won't let you book it.
You can fix a typo or swap a link any time the position is still running. Date and placement changes depend on availability.
Cancel a future booking before it runs and you're refunded in full. Once a position has gone live for its dated run, that run isn't refundable — but we'll always make a genuine mistake right.
No call, no proposal, no waiting
Choose a scarce local position, write it in the builder, and pay online. Local ads help keep Capital Daily free, without giving sponsors a say in the newsroom.
