Our take
Muzz is a dating app for Muslims, designed to help people "find their perfect partner while respecting their religious beliefs". Although it appears to operate in a highly competitive space, the Muzz app is unique in catering to those dating to marry, unlike more casual-leaning options such as Tinder.
Formerly known as Muzmatch (the company was forced to switch up its branding after losing a legal battle to match-making giant Match.com), Muzz supplies a modern but tradition-honouring alternative to arranged introductions and family-led courtship. Like most dating apps, it offers both a free and premium "gold" version that comes with advanced capabilities such as unlimited profiles and more in-depth search priorities. Many free features are tailored for Muslim dating, such as the ability to add a chaperone (Wali) to conversations, and religious filters for sect and how much they pray.
As members of the Muslim community continue to embrace more modern dating methods, Muzz has positioned itself well to serve the billions looking for love around the world. Despite its loss in the courts, the company appears positive in its rebrand - even adding new features alongside its new look - and it will be an interesting one to watch as it grows into the future.
