Coded bottles of Hot have a unique QR code hidden under the gold seal. Once the bottle's yours, peel the seal back and scan the code with your phone camera. It opens the waiver in your browser, with no app or account needed. Each bottle can be signed once.

There's a printed code under the seal as well. Type it in at kiwiflame.nz/redeem. If that doesn't work either, get in touch with a photo of the label and we'll sort it out.

Each bottle counts once, so a code that's been signed can't be signed again. If you think something's wrong, contact us and we'll look into it.

Each signed, coded Hot bottle adds one point to the town its owner picks. Page visits, quiz results and unsigned codes don't count. The full rules are on the Town Wars rules page.

Not yet. We're setting up online orders. Until then, find a stockist or join the waitlist and we'll let you know.

We only collect what we need: your email if you join the waitlist, your details if you send an enquiry, and for the Hot waiver, your town, the date and an optional display name. A drawn signature stays on your device; we don't store it. See the privacy policy.
