Khatabook vs Bazaar IQ

Comparing Khatabook for your shop?

Khatabook made the digital udhaar ledger mainstream. Here is how it compares with Bazaar IQ for a busy shop counter, using Khatabook’s own Play Store listing.

What Khatabook is

Khatabook is a business app best known for its digital khata — a credit ledger with payment reminders — whose Play Store listing also covers bills, inventory and business loans.

When Khatabook may suit you better

Most of your work is tracking udhaar and sending payment reminders, rather than running a busy billing counter.
You want business loans offered inside the same app as your ledger.

Switching from Khatabook

Does Bazaar IQ have a khata like Khatabook?

Yes. Every customer has a ledger with open bills and payments. A credit sale at the counter is added to their khata automatically, and you settle it when they pay.

Can I bring my existing udhaar balances over?

Yes. Add each customer and enter their opening balance once; from then on Bazaar IQ keeps the ledger up to date from your bills.

What does Bazaar IQ do beyond the khata?

Counter billing with barcode scanning, GST invoices, shelf and godown stock, staff logins with per-screen permissions, expenses and salary, and reports.
