Sponsor Truck Equipment Atlas

Support a growing educational platform built to make trucking equipment, systems, services, and industry resources easier to understand and find.

Truck Equipment Atlas provides practical information about commercial trucks, trailers, engines, transmissions, axles, suspension systems, braking systems, freight sectors, and other equipment used throughout the trucking industry.

Our growing Industry Atlas directories connect visitors with truck stops and, as additional directories launch, other businesses and services that support drivers, fleets, and transportation operations.

A Truck Equipment Atlas sponsorship gives an approved company a clearly identified way to support this work while building recognition through relevant website placements, educational content, and promotional opportunities.

TEA Industry Atlas Founding Industry Partner

$500 USD per year — eligibility and capacity review before enrollment. This is a paid Industry Atlas recognition program, separate from listing verification and sitewide sponsorship.

• An approved Founding Industry Partner recognition badge on the participating profile.
• An approved organization name and profile link, with its approved basic logo when available, in the Founding Partners section of the Industry Atlas overview.
• A recognition label on the association directory card. Ordinary directory results remain alphabetical.

No banner, gallery, automatic verification, search priority, content promotion, or sponsorship benefits are included. A free Standard listing, free claim, one approved basic logo, and separate free TEA factual verification remain available.

The first ten approved partners share one register across the entire Industry Atlas, not ten places per category. One organization occupies one place. Eligibility approval reserves capacity before a partner-specific checkout is issued. New enrollment ends when ten approved partners have joined or on December 31, 2027, whichever comes first. Reservations may temporarily make fewer places available. A place used by a joined partner is not resold to an eleventh partner after cancellation.

The $500 annual subscription renews each year until canceled. Cancel through the Stripe Customer Portal or contact TEA before renewal. Existing partners may renew after the enrollment deadline without consuming another place. Recognition continues through the reviewed paid-through date when cancellation is scheduled for period end. When the paid term ends without an approved paid renewal, or TEA ends recognition after refund or payment review, the badge, overview entry, and directory label are removed. The free listing, approved free logo, claim status, and verification status remain separate and are not removed because payment ends.

Payment does not itself activate recognition or approve a logo. TEA reviews payment, eligibility, organization identity and public assets. Paid recognition normally begins within two business days after successful payment and required information. Initial purchases may qualify for a full refund requested within 14 calendar days; renewals are normally nonrefundable. Billing errors and duplicate payments remain reviewable. If TEA cannot activate the purchased recognition, a full refund is due. Failed payments enter private review; no unpaid renewal is represented as paid recognition. General Directory Listing Upgrade Billing Terms also apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a sponsorship the same as a Truck Stop Atlas listing upgrade?

No. Sponsorships support the broader Truck Equipment Atlas platform.

Featured, Professional, Enterprise, Founding Industry Partner, and other listing options apply to individual directory listings and are purchased separately.

What is a Founding Industry Partner?

Founding Industry Partner is the limited $500-per-year TEA Industry Atlas recognition program for approved early participants. It applies to an eligible individual business listing and is separate from the five sitewide Truck Equipment Atlas sponsorship levels.

The initial program is limited to the first 10 approved Founding Industry Partners and is available through December 31, 2027, or until all positions have been filled. Founding Industry Partner status does not purchase Claimed or TEA Verified status.

Does sponsorship make a business TEA Verified?

No. TEA Verified is a separate, free factual-review status. It cannot be purchased through a sponsorship or listing plan.

Will a sponsor rank higher in directory search results?

No. Sponsorship does not change ordinary directory search ordering.

Any paid promotional placement is presented separately and clearly labeled.

Can our company sponsor a specific state?

Strategic and Presenting sponsorship opportunities may include active state landing pages within an Industry Atlas.

Availability depends on whether the state section has been published and supports the approved sponsor placement.

Can we sponsor an equipment or service category?

Yes. Category opportunities may be available beginning with the Premier or Industry Leadership levels, depending on the requested placement.

The category must be active, relevant to the sponsor, and available.

Are category or state sponsorships exclusive?

Not automatically.

• Written interview
• Video interview
• Sponsored video

What reporting is provided?

Reports document completed deliverables using available website links, publication dates, and screenshots.

Truck Equipment Atlas does not promise impressions, clicks, leads, conversions, or sales. Performance data is included only when dependable tracking is available.

Can a sponsorship package be customized?

Truck Equipment Atlas may adjust the mix of placements or content through a written agreement.

The final package must remain appropriate for the selected sponsorship level and cannot compromise directory, verification, or editorial policies.
