What is the best free invoice app for WhatsApp sellers in India?
If you sell on WhatsApp and get paid by UPI, Paige is a simple free option: make a bill or receipt in rupees on your phone, with GST and GSTIN fields, and send it into the customer's WhatsApp chat in one tap, with no account or sign-up. Your UPI ID prints on the bill for free; Paige Pro adds a scan-to-pay UPI QR code with the amount filled in. If you need full GST accounting, inventory or e-invoices, an accounting app such as Vyapar or Zoho Invoice is the better fit.

Good to know
- Free: unlimited bills and receipts in rupees, GST and GSTIN fields, 15 languages, and records you can export as a spreadsheet or for Xero, QuickBooks or Zoho.
- Paige Pro (paid) adds a UPI QR code (a upi://pay link with the amount and invoice number), your logo, invoice numbers that count up, saved business details and a "Who owes me" list with polite reminders.
- Paige does not create GST e-invoices (IRN) through the government e-invoice portal and does not file GST returns. Businesses that must issue e-invoices need a tool connected to that portal.
