Our mission

For generations, Jewish families have relied on the shidduch: a thoughtful introduction between two people who share values and could build a home together. ShidduchMatch brings that tradition into the present. We use modern tools to widen the circle of people you can meet, and we keep the focus where it has always been: marriage, family and shared values.

ShidduchMatch launched in 2026 and is run from Israel. We are a young site, and we prefer to say so plainly rather than make promises we cannot back up.

Why a site dedicated to Jewish singles

General dating apps are built for volume and quick swipes. They rarely ask the questions that matter most for a Jewish home: how you keep Shabbat, what kashrut means to you, which community you feel part of, whether you want to raise children with the same traditions. On ShidduchMatch these questions are part of sign-up from the start.

The compatibility score takes into account religious observance, kashrut, Shabbat, lifestyle, geography, children, education and smoking, as well as personality, measured with a test based on the Big Five model. It is calculated in both directions, so a suggestion makes sense for you and for the other person.

Who ShidduchMatch is for

ShidduchMatch is for Jewish men and women aged 18 and over who are ready to invest time in finding the right person. Some are looking for a first marriage, others are divorced or widowed and want to rebuild a family, and some already have children. The situation and criteria step lets you say openly whether you accept a partner with children or with a disability, so that nobody has to explain their situation again and again.

The personality test is there for a simple reason: two people can share the same observance and still be very different day to day. Knowing how open, organized, sociable, agreeable and emotionally steady someone is helps predict how well two people will live together.

Our values

Seriousness

ShidduchMatch is designed for people who want a lasting relationship, above all marriage. You state clearly what you are looking for (marriage, a serious relationship or friendship) so that expectations are clear on both sides.

Respect for every level of observance

Secular, traditional, conservative, reform, modern orthodox, orthodox or haredi: every member is welcome, and none is judged. Ashkenazi, Sephardi, Mizrahi and mixed backgrounds are all part of our community. The goal is not to push anyone in one direction, but to help each person meet someone whose practice fits their own.

Discretion

Messaging only opens after a mutual match. Apart from your main photo, you decide whether each photo is Public, Blurred or Hidden until there is a mutual match. Many people prefer to search discreetly, and the site is built to allow that.

Human support

An algorithm can suggest, but people make the introduction meaningful. With the Premium + Matchmaker plan, a dedicated matchmaker interviews you, selects profiles by hand, sends you up to 4 personalized introductions per month and follows up after each meeting. Details are on the plans page.

Four languages, one community

The Jewish world speaks many languages. ShidduchMatch is fully available in English, French, Hebrew and Russian, so that singles in Israel, France, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and elsewhere can use the site comfortably and meet across borders.

This matters in practice: a French-speaking family in Netanya, a Russian-speaking engineer in Haifa, an English-speaking professional in London or Toronto can all describe themselves in their own language and still find each other. Geography is one of the factors in the compatibility score, and Premium members can filter by country, distance and language, whether they want to meet someone nearby or are open to building a life in another country, including making aliyah.

What we do not do

You can read exactly what we collect and why in our privacy policy and the rules of the site in our terms of use.

How it works, in short

You sign up for free in 8 steps, including your religious practice, your criteria and a short personality test. You receive compatibility scores, like the profiles that interest you, and start a conversation once a like is mutual. The How it works page covers each step in detail.
