BALMA is revolutionizing the way South Asian LGBTQIA+ individuals and their allies connect, offering a unique platform that's the first of its kind. As a company led by members of the community, including those from the LGBT, gay, trans, and Hijra communities from countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, BALMA is committed to fostering inclusivity and diversity. Our app is designed to provide a safe space where users can express themselves freely and form meaningful connections. Here's why BALMA stands out:
User Profiles
At BALMA, we believe in celebrating individuality. Our users can craft detailed profiles, including age, location, interests, relationship status, and pronouns, allowing everyone to showcase their true selves.
Live Broadcasting
With BALMA's Live broadcast feature, users can stream video content to engage with a broader audience. Viewers can interact through comments and send virtual gifts, which can be converted into cash, supporting content creators and enhancing community engagement.
Chatting
Our messaging system goes beyond text, allowing users to share photos, exchange videos, send virtual gifts, and tip other users. This fosters deeper connections and facilitates engaging conversations within the community.
Location-Based Connections
As a Queer social networking app, BALMA uses geolocation to connect you with nearby LGBTQIA+ individuals. This feature makes it easier to find and meet local members, enhancing the possibility of forming meaningful relationships.
Community
BALMA encourages a strong sense of community through interest-based groups and forums. This platform is perfect for LGBT+ networking, Queer discussions, and organizing events around themes relevant to the LGBTQIA+ community.
Video Chat
Our video chat feature enables face-to-face conversations within the app, strengthening bonds and enhancing communication among users.
Events
Stay updated with BALMA's event listings, which include information on LGBTQIA+ gatherings, parties, and Pride events in various cities. This feature helps users plan and participate in community activities, further building connections within the community.
Travel Mode
With BALMA's Travel Mode, users can connect with locals and other travelers at their destination before arrival, opening up opportunities to meet like-minded individuals and explore LGBTQIA+ friendly locations.
Safety and Verification
Your safety is our priority. BALMA includes robust security features like user verification, screenshot protection, and options for reporting and blocking to maintain a secure and inclusive environment. These measures help protect against harassment and promote respectful interactions.
BALMA Subscriptions
BALMA is free to download and use, but we offer additional features through optional subscription packages (BALMA Unlimited) or individual paid services like Gifts and Tips. Subscription options include weekly, monthly, 3-month, and 12-month durations, with varying prices that may differ by country and are subject to change.
