Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Ismaili Match
ISMA is a community-exclusive matrimony app built for Shia Ismaili Muslims. Unlike general dating apps, every member is a Ismaili. We exist to help community members find life partners who share the same faith, values, and cultural background — in a safe, respectful environment designed specifically for us.
Yes! ISMA is fully free to use as of today. It includes profile creation, browsing verified Ismaili members, and sending introductory messages. We may include a paid version at a later stage
ISMA is exclusively for the Ismaili community. We understand Ismaili culture, the role of family in matchmaking, and the values that guide our lives. You will never need to explain what jamatkhaana is, or why certain shared values matter to you. We already know.
Our matching considers religious values, cultural heritage, lifestyle compatibility, education, family background, jamat location, and personal preferences. You can also apply detailed filters — from regional background (e.g. East African Ismaili, South Asian Ismaili) to language, relocation preferences, and more.
Not at this time - We encourage users to create their own profiles and represent themselves. We might include a flow for parents to sign up for representation later
Yes. All data on ISMA is secure. We never sell or share your personal information with any third party. Your profile is only visible to other Ismaili members, and you have full control over your privacy settings.
Yes, and this is one of the reasons we built it. Ismailis in smaller cities or countries with smaller jamat populations often have very limited options locally. Ismaili Match connects you to the entire global Ismaili community across 40+ countries.
