Nikah.com & Its Purpose
Nikah.com began in 2000 through NikahSearch.com, with a simple intention — to help singles complete half their deen and to help parents fulfil their responsibility in a dignified, organised and halal way.
From the beginning, our platform was built with a clear and pure intention — not for dating, not for casual friendship, but solely for Nikah. A dedicated space where Muslims, especially sisters and parents, could search with privacy, dignity and trust.
At a time when no digital platform existed for Muslims, we created a safe, value-aligned environment that respected privacy, modesty and Islamic guidelines. As families became more global and traditional networks weakened, the need for a structured, trusted platform became even more essential.
Our intention has always remained the same:
- Provide a halal-first, trusted pathway for marriage
- Support families in making informed decisions
- Ensure privacy and dignity for women
- Use technology responsibly without compromising Islamic values
Nikah.com continues this mission with a modern ecosystem built for today’s needs — simple, respectful and aligned with the principles we started with more than 25 years ago.
Beyond Matchmaking: Families & Community
Nikah.com is not just about matchmaking or monetisation — it carries a long-term responsibility. In today’s digital era, where social apps often weaken family structures, our focus is to guide, protect and strengthen the family system, which is the core foundation in Islam.
As Nikah Groups grows, we aim to combine sustainable business with meaningful community impact by:
- Engaging professional marriage counsellors to support healthy, stable marriages
- Partnering with masjids and community organisations for guidance and education
- Providing dignified support for divorcees, widows and single parents
- Exploring sadaqah-backed assistance for underprivileged families in genuine need
Our long-term vision is to build a safe, value-driven digital ecosystem that not only connects people, but also uplifts families and strengthens communities worldwide.

- Filters for deen, values, madhhab, culture and language.

Leadership gap in the market = Nikah.com’s opportunity.
Calling Ethical, Long-Term Investors
For 25 years, Nikah.com has been run independently with a clear mission and steady organic growth. Today, with rising divorces, social pressures and the explosive growth of dating apps, there is a clear global gap for a safe, structured and high-trust marriage platform. The opportunity is now far larger than what a single founder can scale alone.
We are inviting like-minded investors who care about both long-term value creation and impact — investors who want exposure to a defensible global brand and a purpose-led mission.
- Global brand potential: “Nikah” is a universal term across the Muslim world; Nikah.com is positioned to be the category-defining brand.
- Asymmetric upside: a relatively modest round size against a large, underserved global market.
- Capital-efficient history: more than two decades of revenue built with minimal external spend, now ready to scale with focused capital.
- Clear scaling path: multi-vertical ecosystem (matchmaking, events, invitations, media, vendors, centres) with diversified revenue streams.
- Future exit possibilities: long-term potential for institutional rounds, IPO or strategic acquisition once the ecosystem is scaled.
For early angels and ethical growth investors, this is an opportunity to come in before full-scale global execution, and participate in the upside as Nikah.com grows into a leading global marriage ecosystem brand.
Investment Opportunity – SAFE
We are opening a focused funding round to complete our AI-powered matchmaking ecosystem and accelerate expansion across the GCC and major global Muslim markets.
Instrument: SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity)
Round Size: US $800,000
(with an optional extension of US $200,000)
This SAFE round provides early investors with exposure to the long-term value of the entire Nikah Groups ecosystem—powered by premium domain assets, AI-driven moderation technology, and a multi-product roadmap serving the global Muslim marriage market.
The structure allows us to move fast, remain mission-aligned, and minimise early equity dilution, ensuring that investor capital is fully focused on product development, market expansion, and establishing regional leadership.
This round also lays the foundation for a structured VC raise, planned once key milestones are achieved across product deployment, traction growth, and GCC expansion over the coming months.
Detailed financials, traction metrics, execution roadmap, and SAFE terms will be shared with verified and actively interested investors upon request.
The Digital Estate That Can't Be Easily Replicated
While many competitors build on rented digital land, we have secured and grown an asset base that owns the “Nikah” category online.
Think Nikah. Think Nikah.com.
Our Triple-Layered Competitive Moat
Investor FAQs
We are raising now to modernize Nikah.com, reintroduce our proven “free to message, pay to share contact” model from 2001–2004, and evolve into the global Muslim matchmaking leader powered by AI-Wali — a guardian that protects privacy, prevents misuse, and makes life-partner discovery simpler, faster, and more meaningful.
Long-Term Vision: Towards a Publicly Listed Global Institution
We are building Nikah Groups with the discipline, governance and scalability needed to potentially pursue a public listing on a major international or regional exchange over the next 6–8 years, in sha Allah, if market conditions and company performance align.
Phase 1
Rebuild and scale the core Nikah.com platform with proprietary AI moderation and
Nikah Invitations.
Achieve strong traction and readiness for larger VC-backed rounds.
Phase 2
Progressively launch and scale the remaining ecosystem verticals (EliteNikah,
Nikah.tv, Directory, Centers etc.) in selected markets.
Expand globally in a phased manner.
Phase 3
Establish Nikah Groups as a global category leader in halal family services.
IPO is one of the potential long-term outcomes once the ecosystem matures and global footprint is established.
The current flagship — Nikah.com — remains the primary focus and revenue engine. Additional verticals will be activated in a disciplined sequence to maximise capital efficiency and long-term shareholder value.
