One plan. ₹0. There is no second column.
No card, no trial clock, no tier where the useful part lives. Most of this page explains why that is a real position rather than a launch offer — which is the question worth asking about anything free.
Everything the counter needs
- Offline billing, unlimited bills
- Unlimited stock items, and the shared catalogue to fill them from
- Barcode scanning, plus shelf labels your shop prints for loose goods
- The udhaar book, with reminders from your own WhatsApp number
- Batch and expiry tracking
- Staff on the same phone, each with their own PIN and their own limits
- Bluetooth thermal printing, 2-inch and 3-inch
- Your UPI QR on the bill
- CSV export of everything, whenever you want it
- A public page for your shop
How free actually works here
The app barely uses a server
Because billing happens on the phone, we are not paying to process your sales — we are paying to store some text and send it back when you sign in on a new handset. The running cost of a pilot shop is close to nothing, and that is a fact about the architecture rather than a promotional decision.
There is no sales team to fund
No advertising, no growth budget, no commission. You found this page rather than an advertisement, and the pilot is small on purpose. Most of what makes software expensive is not the software.
Your billing is the thing that makes it work
Every shop that enters stock makes the shared catalogue better for the next shop. That is the only part of this with a compounding advantage, and it comes from ordinary use — so a shopkeeper billing for free is not a cost being absorbed, it is the product being built.
And it will not stay this cheap forever
At real scale the server bill stops being a rounding error. That is why the section below names where money would come from — the answer is decided now, in public, while nobody is under pressure, rather than in eighteen months when someone is.
Six things that will never be charged for
These are the standard moves in this category. Each one works by taking away something that already worked, which is why they are refused as a group rather than one at a time.
- Charging for sync
- Sync is how your bills survive a lost phone. Charging for it means charging you not to lose your books.
- A cap on items, bills or customers
- A row limit is a bill that arrives on your busiest month, which is exactly the month you cannot deal with it.
- A cap on devices or staff
- The counter is one shared phone with three people on it. Charging per person taxes the way the shop actually works.
- Charging to restore or export your data
- Holding your own records behind a payment is the single most effective way to lose the trust everything else depends on.
- Selling receipt de-branding
- There is no branding on your receipt to remove. It is your signboard, not our billboard, so there is nothing there to sell back to you.
- Selling or lending against your data
- The udhaar book especially. It is never sold, never shared, never monetised — it is a record of a relationship that existed before this app.
The till is never a paywall. If it records a sale, it is free.
Where money would come from instead
Named now because a company that has not thought about this has simply not told you yet. None of it exists today and none of it touches billing.
Listing placement
A shop that wants more visibility in discovery could pay for a labelled, capped slot. It sits beside real results and never reorders them — a paid listing will not be allowed to outrank an organic one.
Ordering between businesses
If a shop buys its stock through the platform one day, that transaction is a place value is obvious and a fee is honest.
Analytics, for people who ask for analytics
Depth beyond your own recorded numbers, for a shop big enough to want it. The numbers themselves stay free.
None of this is built, none of it is priced, and none of it is a tier above the free one. It is written here so that when the question is asked in two years, the answer already exists in public — and so that anything outside this list has to be argued for against a page that predates it.
Free is easy to say. Read the other one.
The page that actually tests this is the one listing who can read your books — including the things we deliberately do not claim.
