Sharia Compliance at Match My Business

1. Our Ethical Foundation

At Match My Business (MMB), every feature of our platform is built around one principle:

Facilitating entrepreneurship without riba (interest), exploitation, or unethical financing.

We believe innovation should never require compromise — our mission is to connect founders, investors, and freelancers who want to build wealth in a halal, fair, and transparent way.

2. What “Halal Funding” Means to Us

Halal funding is not only about avoiding interest. It’s about creating transactions based on real value, shared risk, and mutual benefit.

In practice, this means:

  • ❌ No interest-based loans (riba)

  • ❌ No speculative or gambling-based activities (maysir)

  • ❌ No investments in haram industries (e.g., alcohol, adult content, gambling, weapons, pork, etc.)

  • ✅ Support for real business activity (trade, services, innovation, production)

  • ✅ Transparent contracts and clear mutual consent between parties

3. Our Role and Responsibility

MMB acts as an intermediary — a bridge between founders and investors.
We provide the digital space, tools, and verification processes, but we do not directly structure or guarantee financial returns.

Each project and investor remains responsible for ensuring that their agreements, profit-sharing models, and contracts comply with their ethical and religious standards.

MMB provides guidance and clarity — not legal or religious rulings (fatwas).

4. Verification & Transparency

To maintain trust, we integrate several layers of control:

  • KYC & Identity Verification: every user (founder or investor) is validated.

  • Project Screening: we flag or reject sectors that contradict Islamic ethics.

  • Escrow / Milestone Payment Systems: protect both sides while preventing misuse of funds.

  • Traceable Agreements: digital contracts ensure full transparency in every transaction.

5. Future Sharia Advisory Board

We plan to form an independent Sharia Advisory Board composed of scholars and professionals in Islamic finance.
Their role will be to:

  • Review platform mechanisms and deal templates

  • Validate compliance frameworks

  • Issue non-binding recommendations

  • Ensure transparency and accountability

6. Our Commitment

We are committed to continuous improvement and transparency in our halal-compliant model.
As the platform grows, we will evolve toward a certified Sharia-compliant standard audited annually.

“Ethical business is not a niche. It’s the future of global entrepreneurship.”
— The MMB Team

7. Disclaimer

While MMB strives to maintain halal standards in its operations, final responsibility rests with users to ensure that each agreement they enter complies with both their legal and religious principles.
MMB is not a financial institution and does not issue Sharia rulings.
