About PlugZ

Physical Authentication Infrastructure

PlugZ connects buyers, sellers, and trained verifiers with physical review, NFC evidence, escrow protection, advisory AI risk signals, and PlugZ Chain records.

Our Mission

PlugZ exists because we were tired of scams, delays, and marketplaces that protect the platform — not the people. Built by someone who lived through resale and knew exactly what needed to change.

Every product goes through mandatory evidence review before it reaches the buyer, combining NFC records, trained verifiers, and auditable chain-of-custody data.
