Your shop's book, on your phone.
No internet needed.

Sell, buy stock, give credit and take part-payments on any Android phone or Windows computer. DBL keeps working with no data and sends a backup to the cloud whenever it finds a signal, so a lost phone never means a lost book.

Made for how we really do business

Cash, mobile money and "trust". Customers who pay small-small and collect later. Goods by the bag and by the cup. Prices that change with every new load. DBL handles all of it.

Offline first

Everything is saved on the phone. Sync happens by itself when there is data, even a weak 2G signal.

Credit and part-payments

Take many payments for one sale. Each payment is spread over the items, so every item shows amount, paid and balance.

Pay now, collect later

A customer pays bit by bit and collects when it is paid off. Items are marked collected or waiting for collection.

Profit per batch

Every purchase line is its own batch with its own cost and price. See exactly what each load of goods made or lost.

What you owe suppliers

Pay suppliers in parts too. Know what is still owed on each line, and which goods you have not collected yet.

Mobile money

Orange Money, Afrimoney, MTN MoMo, M-Pesa, Wave and more, with the transaction ID kept on every payment.

Wholesale, retail and services

Sell by the carton and by the piece from the same stock. Offer services too, like photocopy, typing or repairs, priced per copy, page or job.

Sellers you can trust

Each seller gets a PIN on one phone in one shop. You decide who may give credit or change prices. Cash-up per seller every day.

Receipts and reminders

Send receipts and friendly balance reminders by WhatsApp or SMS straight from the app.

Many shops, one owner

Own more than one shop? Switch between them on your phone and see them all in your online portal.

Backup and recovery

Phone stolen or broken? Install DBL on a new phone, sign in, and your whole book comes back.

Light on cheap phones

Small download, Android 5 and newer, big buttons, works for weeks without a connection.

How it works

1
Register an account here. One account holds one or more shops. The DBL team approves it, usually the same day.
2
Add your shops and sellers in the owner portal: shop type (retail, wholesale or both), goods or services, currency, and a PIN for each seller.
3
Install the app on your phone and sign in once with internet. Your free trial starts.
4
Connect each seller's phone with a one-time code from the portal. That phone works only for that shop.
5
Sell, buy and collect money on the phones. The online portal shows your reports and keeps your backups. It never changes your book.

Simple yearly prices

1 month free, with every feature. Then one price per shop, per year, by the size of the shop. Sellers and their phones are not charged extra. Pay by mobile money.

Full functionality. Starts when you install the app on your first phone or computer.
