This innovative concept integrates e-commerce, Shariah-compliant digital raffles, and fractional ownership, offering a unique digital experience.
‘Daily Millionaire’ allows users to purchase shares in luxury assets like cars, villas, and gold. These shares then grant entry into transparent digital draws powered by blockchain technology. The platform also features a digital wallet and a loyalty points system, both designed in accordance with Islamic finance principles, aiming to provide a fair and empowering experience that blends smart purchasing with a spirit of solidarity.
Khalid Al Abri, OPD Chief Financial Officer, commented on the launch, stating, “‘Daily Millionaire’ reflects our commitment to supporting high-impact digital solutions through secure and sovereign cloud infrastructure.” He added that hosting the platform on OPD’s cloud ensures scalability and flexibility, aligning with Oman’s Vision 2040 goals of fostering a knowledge-based economy and an integrated digital society.
Azzan Al Kindi, Rihal Co-founder & CEO, highlighted the platform as the culmination of their vision to offer an innovative digital model that combines commerce, investment, and social solidarity, meeting the aspirations of younger generations. “We believe that merging technology with values can deliver a unique experience that promotes digital justice and opens doors to broader community engagement through innovation,” Al Kindi said.
The platform leverages cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and advanced analytics to ensure a secure, transparent, and fair experience, enabling users to contribute to sustainable social impact. Furthermore, ‘Daily Millionaire’ is set to support local employment opportunities and attract tech sector investments through an Omani–Dutch partnership, showcasing local talent and collaborating with European partners to deliver globally scalable solutions.
The agreement, representing a joint investment of $13 million in its first phase, was signed by Rihal co-founders Abdullah bin Salem Al Abadi and Haider Al Maktoumi. Oman Data Park stated that ‘Daily Millionaire’ is planned to be a global platform, inviting participants from countries worldwide. This strategic roadmap aims to position the platform as a promising tech gateway that bridges Omani innovation with international standards, offering a digital experience rooted in human values and Sharia-compliant frameworks.
