It keeps working when the network does not.

Every entry is saved on your phone the moment you tap Save. When the signal comes back, it syncs by itself. Only creating your account needs internet, once.

  • No currency symbol: your rupees are recorded as you type them
  • Photograph the bill and keep it with the entry

  • PDF statement per customer

Questions

Good to know

Is it free?

Yes. Recording and reading your own entries is free, with no entry limit, no trial clock and no card.

Can I add my own payment modes?

Yes. Cash, Bank and Credit are there to start, and you can add your own, for example a mobile wallet or a particular bank account, so each entry shows how the money moved.

Can my staff use it without seeing everything?

Yes. Access is given book by book. You can hide the running balance, hide other people’s entries, and stop backdating, so a salesman can record sales all day without seeing the day’s takings.

Does MoneyBook do sales tax?

No. MoneyBook is a ledger, not accounting or tax software: it does not calculate sales tax or file returns. If you want the sales tax amount or an invoice number next to an entry, add it as a custom field in that book (up to five per book), and export to Excel for your accountant.

Open your first book in about a minute.

No card, no sales call, nothing to cancel.
