Coming from Salams? How Maktub is designed

Maktub removes the swipe deck and limits concurrent courtship so introductions stay intentional.

• One curated introduction per day.
• Photos blurred until mutual interest; chat after reciprocal Salaam.
• Optional Wali Mode designed into the flow — not treated as an afterthought label.
• Safety and verification features are not paywalled.
• Paid tiers unlock initiating capacity, never “better matches.”

Many discovery-led apps optimise for browsing a large set of profiles and opening several chats. That is a valid preference for some people.

Maktub instead paces attention: one Salaam path at a time. We mention Salams only as a brand readers may already know — not as a scorecard we claim to own.

Maktub is Netherlands-first. We will not advertise city density we do not have.

UK or other readers are welcome to learn and join the waitlist with that context.
