Global's AdPower, launched on 11 June 2026, books the London Underground, the national bus network and BT Street Hubs alongside Global's radio stations, including Heart, Capital and LBC, with campaigns live as soon as the next day and free AI tools to make the ads. Global manages the advertising across TfL's rail estate, so a Global-only plan is best bought from Global. AdBuyMCP doesn't sell radio. It books out-of-home as one of four channels, beside streaming TV, podcasts and ChatGPT ads aimed at the same market.
