From the first card to the proposal

Introduce yourself honestly
Your religious practice, your life plans, what you hope for in a spouse. Ten minutes is enough.
Browse compatible profiles
Right if you are interested, left if not. You only see adults of the opposite sex whose e-mail has been verified.
Talk once interest is mutual
A conversation opens only when both of you are interested. You alone decide when your photos become visible.
Bring in the families
Share your wali’s contact details in one tap and carry on the proper way.

The wali has a place

Add your wali and share his contact details in the conversation once things become serious.

Clear intentions
