Verification protocol

Hardware verification audit rules.

The four-stage verification gates required before campaigns launch and escrow payouts disburse.

Gate 1

Physical Prototype Verification

Mandatory

Creators must demonstrate a real, physical device functioning on video. 3D renderings, wireframe mockups, or simulations are strictly rejected.

Gate 2

Maker Identity & GSTIN Audit

Mandatory

Indian founders must submit PAN and Aadhaar identity verification. GSTIN registration is verified for campaigns collecting pre-orders above ₹5,00,000.

Gate 3

Factory Tooling & MOQ Approval

Mandatory for Products

Submission of formal manufacturer quotes, tooling lead times, and fabrication timelines to ensure delivery commitments are mathematically achievable.

Gate 4

All-or-Nothing Escrow Commitment

Platform Policy

Creators agree that 100% of collected backer capital stays frozen in RBI-compliant escrow until the full funding goal is met within the 40-day campaign period.

Prohibited Projects

Drop-shipped resale merchandise from generic online suppliers, unregulated medical treatments, speculative cryptocurrency tokens, and weapons are strictly prohibited from launching on MyForge.
