How to Invoice on WhatsApp
wabill lets you create and send professional invoices directly through WhatsApp. No app to download, no website to visit, no forms to fill out. Just chat.
Why WhatsApp?
Across Africa, WhatsApp is how business gets done. Your customers are already on WhatsApp. Your suppliers are on WhatsApp. So why use a separate app for invoicing?
With wabill:
- Message us on WhatsApp
- Tell us what you need (invoice or quote)
- We create a professional PDF
- Send it directly to your client — via WhatsApp
Works on WhatsApp bundles
This is the big advantage. In Africa, data is expensive. But WhatsApp bundles are cheap.
South Africa
MTN: R2 for 500MB WhatsApp daily. Vodacom: R35 for 1GB WhatsApp monthly.

FAQ
How do I create an invoice on WhatsApp?
Message wabill on WhatsApp and say 'create invoice'. We'll guide you through adding your client, line items, and amounts. Then we generate a professional PDF you can forward to your client.
Does WhatsApp invoicing use my data?
wabill works on WhatsApp, so it uses your WhatsApp data — not your regular data. If you have a WhatsApp bundle (like MTN's R2 daily bundle), invoicing is essentially free.

Absolutely. wabill generates proper PDF invoices with all required information — business details, line items, VAT, totals, and payment information. The delivery method is WhatsApp, but the invoice itself is fully professional.
