Customer credit, without the notebook
Selling on credit is part of doing business. Barkeel tells you who owes what, since when, and blocks sales that go beyond the limit you set.
Why credit makes you lose money
- The credit notebook gets lost, damaged or out of date.
- A customer disputes what they owe, and you have nothing clear to show them.
- Some customers build up debts far beyond what you would accept.
- Partial repayments are not recorded anywhere.
What Barkeel credit tracking does

Set the maximum credit for each customer. The till refuses a credit sale that would exceed it.

Frequently asked questions
Can the customer receive their statement?
Yes. The account statement prints with your letterhead, and invoices are sent on WhatsApp.
What if a customer pays more than they owe?
The surplus is kept as an advance on their account and deducted from their next purchases.
Can a seller go over the limit?
No. The credit sale is refused if it would take the customer over their limit.
Can I sell on credit to a walk-in customer?
No: without a registered customer, the sale must be paid in full. This is deliberate, so every credit has a name.
