Bahi Khata App Bahi khata app: your paper register, digitised
The same red register your shop has always kept — without the pages that tear, the entries that get disputed, and the book that stays behind when you do not.
Bahi khata is the traditional Indian account book: one page per customer, credit on one side, payments on the other. A bahi khata app keeps that exact structure and removes the four things that make paper fragile — it cannot be copied, searched, proved, or recovered.
The register cannot be lost
Every entry is backed up online and on the device. A register that is lost, torn or soaked takes the whole hisaab with it; a digital khata is recovered by logging in.
Entries carry proof
Paper entries are a single copy in your handwriting. In OkCredit the customer receives an SMS for every entry, so both parties hold the same timestamped record.
It works the way the register did
One page per customer, credit and payment entries, a running balance. No accounting knowledge and no accountant needed — setup takes about two minutes with just a mobile number.
It works without a network
Entries can be made offline and sync automatically when the phone reconnects, which matters at a counter with patchy connectivity.
Frequently asked questions
What is a bahi khata app?
A bahi khata app is the digital form of the traditional Indian account book used by shopkeepers to record customer credit (udhar) and payments (jama). OkCredit replaces the paper register with a free app where every entry is saved securely online and the customer receives an automatic confirmation.
Do I have to move my old register into the app?
No. Most shopkeepers start by entering only the current outstanding balance for each customer and record new transactions from that point onwards.
Can I still give a customer a written statement?
Yes. You can produce a full account statement for any customer and a monthly collection report, download them as PDF, and share them directly.
Which languages does the app support?
Eleven: English, Hindi, Hinglish, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam and Punjabi.
