How to Run a Whole Shop From Your Phone

You can run a whole shop from a single phone with Tukri — a mobile-first POS, inventory, বাকির খাতা (due book), কিস্তি and invoicing app for small shop owners in Bangladesh. Billing, dues, stock, expenses and reports all live in one app that keeps working OFFLINE and syncs when the internet returns. Install it like a normal app and it runs well even on an inexpensive Android phone.

Can one phone really replace a counter machine and a খাতা?

For most small shops, yes — Tukri puts billing, stock, the due book and your numbers in one place on the phone you already carry, so you stop juggling a calculator, a notebook and a separate machine. A paper খাতা is fine for a tiny stall with a handful of বাকি customers, but once you have real stock and many dues, one app saves the daily reconciling.

  • Quick billing — search by name, SKU or barcode, or tap the product grid
  • Scan barcodes with a USB scanner or the phone camera
  • Split a bill across cash, card, bank, mobile-banking or Due
  • Hold a bill and resume it when the customer comes back

How does Tukri keep working when the internet drops?

Tukri is built offline-first: you can bill, take payments and add customers with no internet, and the app syncs everything automatically once you are back online. That means a power cut or weak network at your counter never stops a sale.

  • Keep billing during outages — nothing is lost
  • Changes sync in the background when the connection returns
  • Stock, dues and reports stay correct after sync

What can you actually manage end to end?

From the same phone you handle the full shop, not just the counter — every sale moves live stock, every বাকি is logged per customer, and your profit is calculated from real cost. Tukri ties it all together so nothing is double-entered.

  • Live stock with low-stock alerts, valuation and batch/expiry (FEFO)
  • বাকির খাতা per customer with SMS/WhatsApp/tap-to-call reminders + statement PDF
  • Expenses with a receipt photo, plus cash/bank/mobile money accounts
  • Reports — profit & loss, top products, sales-by-day, receivables aging
  • Invoices as A4 or 80mm thermal PDF (renders Bengali) + a shareable link

Will it run on a cheap phone, and how do I install it?

Tukri is a PWA (installable web app) designed to be light and fast on inexpensive Android phones — no Play Store download needed. Open tukri.bd in your browser and tap Install (or Add to Home Screen) and it sits on your home screen like any app, in English or বাংলা.

  • Installs straight from the browser — no large APK
  • Works in English and full বাংলা
  • Free tier to start, with paid plans and a 14-day premium trial
