Charged on win
The sponsor's card is charged only when a winner is confirmed. VAULT never holds prize money.
Cash challenges
PICK A CHALLENGE.
POST YOUR SHOT.
WIN THE CASH.
VAULT helps businesses market and interact with people in a fun, authentic way. Brands and Sponsors will fund a real cash challenge; anyone with a phone can enter. No portfolio, no follower count, no experience required. The community votes on finalists, then the sponsor or the crowd picks the winner and the prize is paid out.

The loop
FROM CHALLENGE TO PAYOUT.
One cash challenge, four moves — a sponsor sets it up, anyone with a phone shoots it, the community votes, and the winner gets paid.
- 01
A sponsor posts a challenge
The sponsor adds a payment card when the challenge is created — nothing is charged yet.
- 02
Anyone enters with proof
One photo or a short video shot on your phone. No stock, no AI-generated entries, no experience needed.
- 03
The community votes
Upvotes decide the finalists. The sponsor or the crowd picks the winner — every brief clearly states who decides.
- 04
The prize pays out
The sponsor's card is charged the moment a winner is decided, and the prize goes to the winner's verified bank account. No winner, no charge.
Sports Picks
FREE TO PLAY. REAL CASH PRIZES.
Sponsors fund the prize pool. You pick the winners. It costs nothing to enter.
- 01
Make your picks
A sponsor posts a Sports Picks challenge with real upcoming sports games and a cash prize pool. Browse the matchups and pick the team you think wins each game. Entry is always free.
- 02
Lock in your entry
Add a final-score guess for each game and submit — up to three entries per challenge. Your guesses stay private until the challenge settles.
- 03
Win the pot
Live scores update right on your pick post as games are played. When the final game ends, the most correct picks win. Ties go to the closest score guess, then the earliest entry. Winners are paid straight to their VAULT wallet.
- ▸Free entry — sponsors fund 100% of the prize pool
- ▸Live scores on every pick post, updating as games play
- ▸Up to 3 entries per challenge
- ▸Win/loss marks on every pick once games finish
- ▸Share your picks — friends can vote thumbs up or down, even without an account
- ▸Winners split ties fairly and get paid to their wallet
For sponsors
MARKET BY CHALLENGE. ENGAGE WITH CASH.
Turn your marketing budget into an interactive campaign people actually want to join. Post a brief, set the challenge, and receive dozens of real, on-brief entries from real people — authentic content and audience engagement for less than a single agency shoot. You pick the winner from the community's finalists.
For everyone else
NO SKILL NEEDED. JUST SHOW UP & FOLLOW THE CHALLENGE RULES.
Entering is free and open. Snap it, upload it, and let the crowd decide. Spectators keep the feed honest by voting on what actually deserves the challenge.
For creators
SHOW YOUR WORK. BUILD YOUR PARTNERSHIPS.
Post and share photos or short videos to your public Showcase feed. Brands browse real work, discover talent, and start conversations that lead to paid collaborations — not just challenge wins.
