Put it on the tab.

The running tab for homestays, hostels and guesthouses, on your staff’s phones. Orders land on the right room, the kitchen hears on WhatsApp, and the bill is added up before anyone asks for it.

First 30 days free. No card. We set it up for you.

₹1,000 a month for the whole property. Every room, bed, table and staff phone.

Every small property runs on a notebook. Two chai for Room 4. A thali for Table 6. Maggi for Bed 2 at midnight, if anyone wrote it down. At checkout, someone adds it all up while the taxi waits.

Bill Inn keeps the tab instead. Here is one night at a small homestay, told on one guest’s bill.

20:14 Dinner for Room 4

Three taps, and it’s on the tab.

Anita wants dinner in her room. Ravi taps Room 4, taps two chai and a thali, and sends. No page to find in the notebook, no sum to carry over.

  1. 1Tap the room, bed or table
  2. 2Tap the dishes
  3. 3Send

Best-sellers sit at the top. Add a note for the kitchen, or type in something that isn’t on the menu.

20:15 In the kitchen

The kitchen hears it at once.

The order reaches the kitchen’s phones on WhatsApp the moment it’s sent: which room, what to make, and any note. Cooks tap Prepare, then Deliver, so whoever is serving knows when to go up.

Nothing to install in the kitchen. Nobody shouting down the stairs.

21:30 Room service

Anita orders dessert herself.

There’s a QR card in her room. It opens your menu in her phone’s browser, showing what the kitchen is serving right now. She confirms her number with a WhatsApp code, orders, and can check her own tab. No app to download.

Prefer to take every order yourself? Switch guest ordering off and the menu becomes view-only.

21:42 A slip

Wrong room? Move it.

A cold coffee meant for Room 3 lands on Room 4. Meena moves it across in two taps. Both tabs are right again, and the record keeps who changed what, and when.

Cancel a line with a reason, void a wrong payment. Nothing is ever erased, and settled bills stay exactly as they were.

23:50 The signal drops

No signal. Still on the tab.

Anita wants Maggi at midnight, and the network is gone again. Ravi takes the order anyway. It waits safely on his phone and goes through the moment the signal comes back. Once, never twice.

Orders, check-ins, the kitchen queue and payments all keep working offline. The guest menu needs internet.

09:05 Morning, checkout

Checkout is already added up.

Three nights, every order, and the advance she paid when she arrived. It’s all on one bill before Anita comes downstairs. Take UPI, cash or a bit of both, and settle. The bill goes to her WhatsApp.

  • Anything still in the kitchen is flagged before you settle
  • A UPI QR with the amount already filled in
  • Walk-in tables pay and clear the same way

The whole day, added up.

Takings for today, the week and the month: cash against UPI, rooms against tables, what sold most. Only owners and managers can see them.

Everyone on their own phone
Staff sign in with a WhatsApp code, so every line on every bill says who put it there.

Ask on WhatsApp
My staff aren’t comfortable with apps. Will this work?

If they can use WhatsApp, they can use Bill Inn. The buttons say what they do: Send, Prepare, Deliver, Settle. Kitchen orders arrive on WhatsApp with dish names exactly as they are on your menu. The app is in English today.

Our internet is patchy. Will it still work?

The staff app will. Take orders, check guests in and settle bills with no signal. Everything is saved on the phone and goes through once the signal returns. The guest menu needs internet.

Do guests need to download an app?

No. They scan the QR card in their room or on their table and the menu opens in the browser. Before ordering, they confirm their number with a WhatsApp code. Guests without WhatsApp order through your staff, onto the same tab.

Who sets it up? I’m not good with computers.

We do. Send us a photo of your menu and a list of your rooms and tables on WhatsApp. We set everything up and send QR cards ready to print. You sign in on your phone.

How many people can use it?

Your whole team: owner, manager, front desk, service and kitchen. Everyone signs in on their own phone with a WhatsApp code. Only owners and managers see takings.

How do payments and GST invoices work?

You collect money as you do now, in cash or by UPI, and Bill Inn can show a UPI QR with the amount filled in. Bill Inn keeps the record. There’s no payment gateway, PDF or GST invoice today; the guest gets their bill on WhatsApp as a link.

What does it cost? Anything hidden?

₹1,000 a month for the whole property: every room, bed, table and staff phone. The first 30 days are free, with no card. No setup fee. Stop whenever you like.

Message us on WhatsApp. We’ll set up your rooms, tables and menu, and you use it free for 30 days.
