Configuring your Account Settings personalizes your business name on WhatsApp PDF invoices, embeds your GPay/PhonePe UPI QR code for direct bank payments, and manages your ₹99/month subscription.

1. Updating Business Profile & Owner Details

Follow these steps to update your shop name and business contact details:

  1. Open Account Settings: From the menu, tap Settings.
  2. Enter Business Name: Type your official shop or RO water plant name (e.g. Shree Ram Water Suppliers). This name prints on top of all WhatsApp PDF invoices.
  3. Enter Owner Name: Enter your full name (e.g. Rajesh Patel).
  4. Select State & City: Select your state (e.g. Gujarat) and city (e.g. Surat) for localized customer support.
  5. Save Profile: Click Save Profile Settings. Your changes apply across all bills immediately!

2. Configuring UPI ID for WhatsApp Bill QR Codes

Enable instant 1-click online payment scanning on your WhatsApp bills:

  1. Locate UPI Field: In the Settings form, find the UPI ID / VPA field.
  2. Enter Your Bank UPI ID: Enter your shop's Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, or BHIM UPI ID (e.g. 9876543210@paytm or shreeramwater@okaxis).
  3. Automatic QR Generation: When customers receive their monthly WhatsApp invoice link, PaniHisab automatically generates a scannable UPI QR code. Customer payments transfer directly into your linked bank account with 0% extra fees!
Direct Bank Credit: PaniHisab does not hold your money! Customer UPI payments go straight from GPay/PhonePe into your own bank account.
