Trust & Transparency
Built to Be Trusted
We built this platform to fix the trust problem in digital promotions. Every claim is backed by published rules, server-verified data, and a public audit trail.
Published Campaign Rules
Every campaign shows its entry method, winner selection method, eligibility rules, reward, and closing time. No hidden terms.
AI-Assisted, Not AI-Decided
Our AI classifies comments, filters spam, extracts answers, and supports moderation. For payout-triggering decisions, deterministic rules apply.
Public Audit Trail
Every completed campaign includes a public summary: rules, number of entries, winner selection method, selected winners, and campaign status.
Server-Verified Timestamps
Our High-performance ingestion layer timestamps every comment the millisecond it arrives. Our server logs are the single source of truth.
Free-Entry Promotional Campaigns β Not Gambling
Spot The Plug KE campaigns are free-entry promotional marketing activities. No purchase or payment is required to participate. Rewards, vouchers, and offers are provided according to the published rules of each campaign. Campaigns are not sponsored, endorsed, or administered by Instagram, Meta, or any other social platform.
Secret Vault
What if You Miss
the Top Reward?
In a normal campaign, only one person wins. Everyone else leaves empty-handed. That's a wasted audience.
On Spot The Plug KE, selected participants who entered but didn't win the main reward may unlock the Secret Vault β a private, time-limited brand offer delivered by DM. They already showed buying intent. The vault converts that interest.
Selected by campaign rules
Vault recipients are chosen by random selection, engagement score, or brand-configured criteria β not everyone.
Delivered privately by DM
A single DM with a personalised product recommendation, discount code, or exclusive brand offer.
Fully brand-funded
The vault offer is configured and funded by the brand. Spot The Plug KE handles delivery and tracking.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Campaigns on Spot The Plug KE are free-entry promotional campaigns. No purchase or payment is required to participate. These are digital marketing engagements, not lotteries, bets, or games of chance.
Our AI understands minor variations, but accuracy matters. If the answer is "Leather" and you type "Lthr," the AI may reject it. The evaluation rendered by the AI is based on the campaign's configured accepted variations and is final.
DMs are only sent to selected winners or Secret Vault recipients based on the campaign rules β not to all commenters. If you didn't receive a DM, the campaign may have closed, the maximum winners may already have been selected, or you may not have been selected for a vault offer this time.
Winner selection depends on the campaign's published rules. Methods include: correct answer (first or all correct entries), closest guess, random selection among valid entries, or brand-approved manual review. The method is always published before the campaign runs.
The Secret Vault is a limited-time promotional offer delivered by DM to selected participants. It may include discount codes, product recommendations, vouchers, or exclusive brand offers. Vault access is not guaranteed to all participants β it is granted based on the campaign's configured selection method.
Where cash rewards are offered, selected winners provide their Safaricom number and the brand-funded reward is disbursed via M-PESA. Spot The Plug KE handles the payout workflow on behalf of the brand as part of campaign management services.
You get: a campaign page, published rules, comment capture and entry processing, AI-assisted moderation, winner workflow, Secret Vault configuration, reward delivery support, and a performance report covering entries, vault unlocks, discount code usage, and audience insights.
