Islamic lender Offa has joined Knowledge Bank, making it easier for brokers to see and compare its product criteria.

In February, the halal finance provider launched a home purchase plan.

The product is a Sharia-compliant alternative to a conventional residential mortgage and the lender says it can make offers within an hour depending upon credit rating and risk.

Last July 2025, Offa launched a bridge-to-let finance service and recently it bought Bank of Ireland’s Alburaq Sharia-compliant home finance portfolio.

Offa senior intermediary and product manager Saalik Haleem says: “By showcasing our criteria on Knowledge Bank, we are supporting intermediaries in identifying the right solutions for their clients with greater ease. 

“This will also help drive greater awareness of our offering across the intermediary market and is an important first step in strengthening our visibility and footprint among intermediaries, which is a key strategic priority for us.”

Knowledge Bank criteria and partnerships manager Julie Bourne says: “We are pleased to welcome onboard Offa, the newest finance provider to join Knowledge Bank. 

“From hearing about their proposition, we knew that brokers would benefit from learning about their criteria and where they can help place those cases offering different ways to finance investments regardless of whether you are a UK resident, living abroad or a UK based company.”
