How a partnership starts

  1. ApplyFill in the form and describe what you would like to build together.
  2. ConversationA first call to agree the scope, the people involved and what each side brings.
  3. PilotA defined piece of work on the sandbox, with its own success criteria.
  4. ListingA partner is listed only once an agreement exists and the partner has approved the listing.

No commissions, referral fees or reseller margins are paid or advertised on this site. No "certified partner" badges: the site does not issue certifications. A partner is listed only after an agreement exists and the partner has approved the listing. Shariah review of content is attributed to named reviewers who agree to it; it is not a fatwa and does not approve any product. When we describe a partner's integration we use plain status words with their meaning: In progress (work under way), Target (planned, not started), Aligned by design (built to follow a published standard, not assessed by anyone) and Certified (only when the certifying body itself says so, with its link). These words never describe IslamicOpenFinance™ itself.
