Questions

How do I choose billing software for my shop?

Start with the things you cannot work without: offline billing if your internet drops, e-invoices or e-way bills if you sell B2B at scale, a connected weighing scale for loose items, and your budget. Then compare the counter features: barcode billing, staff controls, udhaar, offers and multi-store.

Which billing software works offline?

RichPOS does not; it needs internet. Vyapar lists offline billing that syncs when you are back online (as listed on vyaparapp.in, October 2026).

Do small shops need e-invoicing?

E-invoicing under GST applies to businesses above the turnover limit set by the government for B2B invoices. Most small shops that sell to walk-in customers do not need it. Ask your CA. RichPOS makes GST bills and GSTR-1 reports but not e-invoices or e-way bills.

Is there free billing software for shops?

Vyapar advertises a free plan. RichPOS has a free 30-day trial, then ₹99/month for 3 months, ₹199/month after, or ₹2,000/year.

Does the quiz always recommend RichPOS?

No. If you need offline billing, e-invoices, e-way bills or a connected weighing scale, it says RichPOS is probably not the right fit and names apps that list those features.
