Set Up Free Billing Software for a Small Indian Shop

Start with the smallest working setup

1. Create the merchant workspace in the billing app using the appropriate authorized Google account.
2. Choose the business type that best fits your shop, without enabling every optional module at once.
3. Enter the correct business name and contact information that should appear on receipts.
4. Add your top products with selling prices, units and applicable GST settings.
5. Check accepted payment methods and how UPI confirmation will be verified.
6. Make a test bill for cash and another for UPI, then check amounts, tax, item names and receipt formatting.
7. Learn how to export the day's sales before starting real transactions.

First bill test

For three illustrative units at ₹25 each, the pre-tax amount is ₹75. Apply tax only if required and configured correctly. Check your final invoice before using it for live sales.

Only then turn on optional features

For a kirana shop, consider inventory, Khata and baskets. For a restaurant, review tables and QR ordering readiness before activating kitchen routing. See shop billing and product walkthroughs.
