One price per business. Not per employee, not per invoice.
Four plans, each including everything in the one below it. E-invoicing and the VAT return are in every plan without exception, and the price does not move with the number of invoices you issue or people you employ.
Basmtak Books is licensed to registered establishments only (commercial registration and VAT number). It is not sold to individuals.
No credit card. We activate your account within business hours, and your 14 free days start the moment we do.
Subscription term
Prices are for one business, before VAT (15%). A longer term has a lower monthly rate.
Start
One shop or one practitioner: issues invoices, follows the bank, files the VAT return
948SAR / year
That is 79 SAR a month.
Save 17% against paying monthly
Admin users included
2
Each extra user is 15 SAR a month.
Each extra business is 30% off: 55.30 SAR a month.
The plan includes:
Double-entry ledger, chart of accounts and journals
Quotes, invoices, credit notes and receipt vouchers
Pick the plan, the term and how many users you need above the included ones. Every figure here is computed by the server from the same price book that issues your invoice.
You move up whenever you like, and nothing you have paid for is lost.
Upgrade at any time
You buy a term of the new plan, stacked on top of what is left of the old one, and the new features apply the moment the invoice is paid. The remainder of your subscription is never confiscated.
An extra user mid-term
Billed only for what is left of your term, at the rate you signed up on rather than a new one.
Existing customers keep their price
Anyone who subscribed before these plans keeps their price and every feature for as long as they renew. We do not reprice a running contract.
In every plan
Where we make no difference between plans
These are the basics of Saudi accounting, not features to be sold.
E-invoicing integrated with Fatoora
Phase 1 and phase 2: the QR code, the hash chain, and the link to ZATCA that submits your invoices.
The VAT return
In ZATCA's own box order, produced from your books rather than a side spreadsheet.
Bilingual documents
Your invoice, quote and voucher in Arabic and English, with Hijri and Gregorian dates.
Hosted in the Kingdom
Your data on servers in Jeddah, posted journals that are reversed rather than edited, and full separation between businesses.
The iPhone and iPad app
The same books in your pocket: invoices, vouchers and reports, with QR sign-in from the web.
Your accountant comes with you
Invite your accountant or firm into your books with permissions you set; the firm dashboard is available on every plan.
Common questions
What everyone asks before subscribing
Can an individual subscribe?
No. Basmtak Books is business software licensed per establishment: the account is opened in the name of a registered establishment with a commercial registration and a VAT number, and the establishment's administrator then issues accounts to its staff and accountants. It is not sold to individuals or for personal use.
Do I need a credit card for the trial?
No. The trial is 14 days with no card, on the full Pro plan. When it ends the books simply become read-only — nothing is deleted and nothing is charged — and you pick your plan when you decide.
Is the price per user?
No. The price is per business and includes a number of admin users that depends on the plan (5 on Grow). Each extra user is 15 SAR a month, billed for the remainder of your term if you add one mid-way.
I have more than one company. Do I pay twice?
No. Every plan includes one business, and each extra business under the same account is 30% off the plan's price, with its own books, numbering and VAT return. One account, one subscription.
Do the prices include VAT?
No. Prices are before VAT (15%), which is added on the invoice, and you receive a tax invoice in your business name with your VAT number — for exactly the amount the calculator showed you.
What happens to my books if I stop paying?
They stay exactly as they are: readable and exportable, but nothing can be written until the subscription is renewed. We never delete anyone's books.
Can I change plan mid-term?
Yes, upwards whenever you like: you buy a term of the new plan, stacked on what is left of the old one, and nothing is confiscated. If you stop renewing, the paid term stays yours to its last day.
I am an existing customer. Does my price change?
No. Anyone who subscribed before these plans renews at their old price with every feature for as long as they stay on their plan. The new plans are offered to new customers only.
Is e-invoicing a paid extra?
No. E-invoicing in both phases and the VAT return are in every plan, from the smallest to the largest.
Do I need Basmtak HR?
No. The product is complete on its own. Posting payroll journals from Basmtak HR is a feature for those who use it, and it is added to the same account without moving your books.
How do I bring my data from my current software?
Migration is in every plan: chart of accounts, customers, suppliers, items, opening balances and open invoices, with a preview before anything is written and a full undo.
