Trust and verification

Trust is earned. Verification is separate.

Trust Levels reflect current platform activity and reputation. Blue and Gold are paid verification plans that communicate active Mjengo Networks subscription status; buying a plan does not automatically increase Trust Level.

These levels are calculated automatically from current data and may go down when requirements stop being satisfied.

Verification Plans

A checkmark means the selected paid verification subscription is active according to the platform’s criteria. It does not independently certify professional competence, workmanship, licensing, qualifications, suitability, or portfolio claims.

Blue Profile

KES 100/ year

Active checkmark status. Separate from Trust Level.

Gold Profile

KES 500/ year

Active checkmark status. Separate from Trust Level.

Active checkmark status. Separate from Trust Level.

Gold Page

KES 2,000/ year

Level 5 requires an active Blue or Gold checkmark as one eligibility requirement, but neither plan grants Level 5 by itself.
