How it works

Compliance built into the model.

A savings circle is one of the simplest Shariah-compliant ways to save. Wafir keeps it that way.

01

No riba (interest)

No interest is charged at any stage of the circle. Nobody borrows at interest and nobody earns interest.

02

Rooted in tradition

The jam’iya has been practised in Muslim communities for centuries as a form of mutual cooperation. Wafir keeps that same model and runs it digitally.

03

Equal and fair

Every member contributes the same fixed amount each month and receives the full circle value once, on their turn.

04

Clear terms, no uncertainty

Monthly contribution, total value, duration, payout dates and fee are all shown before you commit, so nothing is left unclear.

05

A fixed, disclosed fee

Wafir charges a clearly disclosed subscription fee for running the circle. It is not interest and is not deducted from your contributions.

06

Protected in escrow

Contributions are held in a segregated escrow account with a licensed Qatari bank, separate from Wafir’s own funds, and used only for payouts.
