Swipe alternative

Thinking of moving from Swipe?

Swipe is a popular invoicing app. If most of your sales happen at a counter, with a customer in front of you, stock moving with every sale and regulars paying later, BillCountr is built around that shape of day. This page explains how, and what it does not do.

01 · Counter

A bill for the person standing in front of you

Search or scan the item, set the quantity, choose how they paid, save. The bill prints or goes out on WhatsApp from the same screen. What follows happens by itself: stock goes down, the customer's balance moves if it was on credit, and the sale lands in the day's total. The customer is only picked when the sale goes on udhaar, so a cash regular never slows the queue.

02 · Payments

We do not handle your customers' money

The customer pays you directly — and on Pro, BillCountr prints your own UPI ID, QR code and bank details on the bill so they know where. It records how they paid (cash, UPI, part payment or udhaar) but it does not send payment links, hold money or take a cut. If collecting payment inside your billing app is what you want, BillCountr does not do it and will not.

Cash, UPI, part payment or udhaar recorded
No payment links and no settlement account
Nobody between you and the person paying you

03 · Udhaar

Part cash, part credit, on the same bill

Regulars often buy on udhaar, so a bill can go partly or fully on credit at the moment it is made. When they pay later, the money is allocated to the bills it clears, and each one keeps showing what is still open on it.

05 · Honestly

What you would give up

BillCountr does not generate e-invoices, e-way bills or GSTR returns, has no online store or product catalogue page, and runs on Android and on the web. There is no iPhone app and no desktop application. If any of these is why you use your current software, BillCountr is not the right move.

No e-invoice, e-way bill or GSTR generation
No online store or catalogue page
No iPhone app, no desktop application
No payment collection inside the app

Common questions

Questions about switching from Swipe.

Can I bring my items and customers across from Swipe?

On the Business plan, if your current software can export your item and customer lists to a spreadsheet, BillCountr imports them in one go. Those two lists are what take longest to retype. On any plan, you can add items as they come up rather than all at once, and what customers already owe you goes in as an opening balance when you set them up.

What happens to the bills I have already made?

They stay in the software that issued them, which is where they belong: a GST invoice is part of the numbered series it was issued in. BillCountr starts its own series from the day you begin, so neither series has a gap.

Do I have to stop using Swipe before I start?

No, and it is safer not to. Run a week or two of billing in parallel, or start with one counter. Your stock figure can only be right in one place while you do, so decide which one that is and stick to it until you have made up your mind.

Is BillCountr connected to Swipe?

No. BillCountr is an independent product with no relationship to Swipe. We name it here only because people looking for an alternative search for it by name.

Can customers pay me by UPI?

Yes — directly, into your own account. On Pro, your UPI ID and QR print on the bill so the customer knows where to pay. BillCountr records that the bill was paid by UPI; it never touches the money.
