GoBarakah Wins World Summit Award — Digital Zakat Platform Processes $500,000 for 15,000 Beneficiaries

Halal Times, 2024

The Halal Times documented GoBarakah's recognition at the World Summit Award 2024 and three additional fintech honours, noting the platform's core achievement: using e-voucher technology to guarantee 100% fund delivery from donor to beneficiary, with full real-time transparency. The platform processed over $500,000 in transactions benefiting 15,000 recipients, partnered with HLISB for value-based banking integration, and joined the MIFC Global Impact Challenge in September 2025. Its 2025 roadmap includes corporate onboarding to scale impact across the $3 billion Islamic philanthropy sector.

What this means for us: Our community gives. We have always given. The question that has haunted our giving is whether it arrives. GoBarakah answers that question with technology — and wins global awards for doing so. MBC backs founders who solve problems our community has been carrying for decades.
