GoForDesi.com is a matrimonial and dating platform designed exclusively for the Indian community living in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zeland.
To register on GoForDesi.com, you must have:
For security and authenticity, we verify:
You can begin the registration process by clicking the “Register” button at the top of the page.
During registration, you will be asked a few basic questions about your location, religion, and the region you belong to in India. This helps us connect you with compatible matches within the community.
After completing registration, you will be prompted to complete your profile by adding details about yourself and your expectations for a life partner. We strongly encourage you to provide as much information as possible. Your profile (excluding contact details) will be visible to other members and helps them determine compatibility.
Please remember to upload your photos, as profiles with pictures receive significantly more attention and responses.
Once your profile is complete, you will automatically be enrolled in our FREE membership plan, which allows you to start browsing and searching for matches on the platform.
Yes, registration on GoForDesi is completely FREE.
After you register and complete your profile by submitting your details, you are automatically enrolled in our Basic FREE Membership Plan.
With the free membership plan, you can:
You can refine your search based on your preferences to find profiles that best match your expectations.
Please note that you will be able to view other members’ photos once your own profile includes at least one approved photo of yourself.
We take your privacy seriously.
We NEVER display or share your name, phone number, or email address with other members — whether they are Free or Premium members. Your personal contact details remain completely private on our platform.
The only way to exchange contact information with another member is through mutual communication. As a Premium member, you can send an introductory message to another member. You can begin chatting with that member only after they accept your initial message. This ensures that communication happens with consent from both sides.
The “Introduction Message” feature allows you to inform another member that you are interested in their profile and would like to connect with them.
Please note that you must not include your name, phone number, email address, social media details, or any other personal contact information in the Introduction Message. Sharing contact details in any form within the Introduction Message is strictly prohibited.
If the other member accepts your Introduction Message, you will be able to start exchanging messages with them through our website.
If the other member declines your Introduction Message, you will not be able to send further messages to that member.
Please note that the “Introduction Message” feature is available exclusively to Premium members.
Only Premium members can send an “Introduction Message” to other members.
Premium members can send Introduction Messages to both Premium and Free members. You may send Introduction Messages to up to 100 members per day.
Free members cannot send Introduction Messages to other members. However, they can receive Introduction Messages from Premium members.
Please note that you must have a Premium membership in order to accept and reply to an Introduction Message.
GoForDesi.com has disabled the right-click option on profile pictures displayed on the website to help prevent images from being easily downloaded.
We strongly encourage you to upload your photos, as we have observed that most members prefer to connect with profiles that display at least one picture.
If you do not feel comfortable uploading a full-size image, you may choose to upload a smaller or lower-resolution photo instead.
You can update most of the information in your profile yourself. However, there are some items (your e-mail address, date of birth, name, gender, and religion, etc.) which can be changed only in extraordinary/ exceptional circumstances. This too can be done only on request to support team, supported by valid reason(s) and/or necessary evidence.
We do NOT display members’ contact details anywhere on our website.
The only way to connect with another member is through our secure messaging system. Chat messaging between two members is enabled only after an Introduction Message has been sent and accepted — whether you sent the Introduction Message and it was accepted, or you accepted an Introduction Message sent to you.
Once chat messaging is enabled, you may request contact details (such as a phone number or WhatsApp number) through the website’s messaging system. However, we strongly recommend that you exchange contact information only after you have communicated for a sufficient period of time and feel safe and comfortable doing so.
If you experience any inappropriate behavior during chat messaging, you can submit an “Abuse Report” using the option available at the bottom of the member’s “View Profile” page. Our team takes such reports seriously and will review them promptly.
No, we do not store your credit card information. In fact, we never have access to your credit card details.
All payments are processed through a secure third-party payment gateway. Your credit card information is transmitted directly to the payment processor and is stored in encrypted form in compliance with international security standards and regulations.
This ensures that your financial information remains safe, secure, and protected at all times.
Yes, as a parent, you are most welcome to create and manage a profile for your son or daughter on GoForDesi.
In fact, many parents are already registered on our platform and actively assist their children in finding a suitable life partner. We understand that in the Indian community, marriage is often a family decision, and parents play an important and supportive role in the matchmaking process — even when their children are living abroad in countries like the USA, UK, or Canada.
Parents can create a profile on behalf of their son or daughter and manage communication responsibly. You may browse profiles, send Introduction Messages (if enrolled in a Premium plan), and help facilitate meaningful conversations. At the same time, your child can also be involved in reviewing matches and communicating when appropriate.
Our platform is designed to support both individuals and families who wish to participate in the matchmaking journey together. Many successful matches on GoForDesi have been initiated with the involvement and guidance of parents.
We encourage open communication within the family and recommend that profiles created by parents clearly indicate that they are being managed by a parent. Transparency helps build trust and ensures a smooth matchmaking experience for everyone involved.
