MishkanBuilding a Jewish
future
online.
Mishkan gathers what a community needs to exist online into a single app: a currency of its own, private messaging, and a social network with no strangers and no algorithm.
Three services
Money, messaging and a social network — built for one community.
מ, one a day
A currency the community issues to itself. It accrues by the second, it's sent by PIN, and it cannot be bought.
Private conversations
Direct and group chats, photos, videos, links, read receipts — and מ that travels inside the conversation.
Réels and Posts
A chronological feed from your own community. Appreciation is paid in מ, and publishing is earned through verification.
01 / Money
מ — a currency the community mints for itself.
From the moment your account is verified, your balance grows by one מ a day — continuously, down to the second, on screen. It isn't bought, traded or backed by a bank: it is issued by belonging. Send it to a contact, to a post you liked, or to open a channel.
- One מ per day, automatically
- Your counter starts at verification and never stops. No purchase, no top-up, no subscription — the only way to hold מ is to be part of the community, or to be given some.
- Sent by PIN
- No account number, no phone number to hand out. Everyone has an eight-character PIN: enter it, and the מ arrives instantly.
- A ledger you can read
- Sent and received, to whom and when — the whole history sits in your wallet, in plain language, with a running balance.
- Money that circulates in the app
- Send מ from a conversation, on a post, or to enter a paid channel. It moves where the community already is.
- Chmita — every seven years, back to zero
- At the very end of the sabbatical year — 29 Elul 5789, which is 9 September 2029, at sunset in Jerusalem — every balance returns to zero, for everyone at the same instant, and the counter starts again from there. A balance can never fall below zero, so there is no debt to carry across: what the release lets go of is accumulated credit. Your history stays readable; only the balance starts over.
מ is earned, never sold. There is nothing to buy in Mishkan — and every seven years, everyone starts again from zero.
02 / Messaging
A messenger for the people you actually know.
Mishkan's messaging is a real messenger, sized for a community rather than a crowd: direct chats, group conversations, media, links and receipts — and nobody you haven't added yourself.
- Direct and group
- Write to one person or to a whole Shabbat table. A group is a conversation with a name and a picture, and the same tools as any other.
- Photos, videos and links
- Send media straight into the thread; links render with a preview instead of a raw URL.
- Per-person read receipts
- In a group you see who has actually caught up — not just that “someone” read it.
- מ inside the conversation
- Send מ without leaving the chat: it appears in the thread like any other message, and lands in the wallet immediately.
You decide who reaches you: the people you already talk to, whoever you gave your PIN to, and anyone answering something you published. Blocking cuts contact both ways.
Security isn't a feature here. It's the ground floor.
Mishkan is built for Jewish communities, which means it is built to be attacked. Everything below exists for that reason.
- Four levels of verification
- Email, then phone, then a photo of your mezuzah approved by a human, then formal verification. Level 2 activates your מ counter; level 3 unlocks publishing.
- Nothing public to scrape
- No public directory, no username search, no profile to crawl. You are reachable only where you chose to be: through your PIN, through the people you added, or through what you published yourself.
- Blocking that actually blocks
- Block someone and it holds in both directions: no message, no מ, no group invite, and their posts leave your feed.
- Business accounts
- Up to 26 sub-accounts under one member: an alternate identity to post and write with, while the מ stays with the owner.
- Three languages, natively
- English, Français and עברית — right-to-left included — everywhere in the app and on this page.
“Mishkan” — מִשְׁכָּן — the dwelling place. A small, portable home for community, wherever you happen to live.
Built with care, in three languages: English, Français, עברית.
Bring your community in.
Mishkan is free, on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android, and already in three languages. Download it, verify yourself, share your PIN.
03 / Social network
A feed that belongs to the community.
Two feeds in one tab: Réels — full-screen video — and Posts, short text with links. Chronological, from your community, with no advertising and no recommendation engine deciding what matters.
No ads. No sponsored posts. Nothing to promote.
