Is email verification mandatory?

Yes. Every user must verify their email address with an OTP before their account is activated. This ensures that only genuine users join our platform.

What is a Profile ID?

After registration, you are assigned a unique Profile ID (e.g., DDM123456). You can share this ID with others for quick profile lookup on our platform.

Privacy & Security

Is my personal information safe?

Absolutely. We use industry-standard encryption and security measures. Your contact details (email, phone) are hidden from other users until you accept their interest request. Read our Privacy Policy for details.

Can other users see my phone number and email?

Search & Matchingशोध आणि जुळणी

How can I search for profiles?

Use the Search page to filter profiles by age range, gender, religion, mother tongue, and other criteria. You can also browse profiles from the homepage.

What is an "Interest Request"?

An Interest Request is a way to express your interest in someone's profile. When you send an interest, the other person receives a notification. They can accept or decline your interest. If accepted, both parties can see each other's contact details and start messaging.

Can I message someone before they accept my interest?

No. Messaging is enabled only after mutual acceptance of an interest request. This protects users from unwanted messages and ensures communication happens only between genuinely interested parties.
