Question 1

Is Banglai Business Suite really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The full Banglai Business Suite — POS, inventory, invoicing, purchase orders, expenses, cash shifts, loyalty, customers, suppliers, and reports — is free for everyone in the USA, UAE, Bangladesh, and beyond. No hidden fees, no per-user charges, no transaction commissions.

Question 2

Does it support US sales tax, UAE 5% VAT, and Bangladesh 15% VAT?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Switch region to the US for USD with configurable state sales tax (NY, CA, TX, FL presets included). Switch to the UAE for AED with the federal 5% VAT and TRN on every tax invoice. Switch to Bangladesh for BDT (৳) with NBR-compliant 15% / 10% / 7.5% / 5% / 0% VAT rates and BIN on a Mushak 6.3-format VAT invoice.

Question 3

Does it support local payment methods like bKash, Nagad, and Rocket?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In Bangladesh region the POS exposes bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, cash, card, bank transfer, and cheque — including split payments (e.g. partial bKash + partial cash). Each line records the trx ID / reference for reconciliation.

Question 4

How does it compare to Shopify POS, Square, Tally, Loyverse, QuickBooks, or Zoho Books?

Accepted Answer

It covers the same core workflows — POS with line-level discounts and split payments, inventory with stock adjustments and audit trail, suppliers and purchase orders with goods receipt, quotations that convert to invoices, customers with loyalty points, expenses with categories, daily cash shifts with Z-reports, and Profit & Loss reporting — without monthly fees, per-terminal charges, or transaction cuts. Paid platforms still win on advanced ecosystems; we close the gap with deep customization and direct developer support.

Question 5

Can I get a custom feature built for my business?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. For anything specific to your company — multi-branch, hardware (printers, scanners, scales, cash drawers), real-time multi-device sync, accounting integrations (Tally, QuickBooks, Xero, Zoho Books, SAP), e-commerce sync, NBR Mushak filing automation for Bangladesh, FTA filing for UAE, kitchen display systems, table management, mobile apps, branded white-label deployments — contact us and we will build it on a paid engagement.

Question 6

Where is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

In the public demo, all your data is stored locally in your own browser (localStorage) — nothing is uploaded. Use Settings → Export to back up your data or move it between devices. For production deployments with multi-device sync, accounts, and automated backups, we offer a hosted or self-hosted version as part of a custom build.

Question 7

How is the suite secured?

Accepted Answer

Multiple layers: optional PIN lock with PBKDF2-SHA-256 (200k iterations) and exponential lockout backoff, idle auto-lock, lock-on-tab-hidden, deep state validation on every load (drops malformed fields), prototype-pollution guard on imports, CSV formula-injection escape on export, image-type whitelist (PNG/JPG/WebP/GIF only) with decode verification, rolling localStorage snapshots for recovery from corruption, and HTTP security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, HSTS, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, COOP, CORP). React auto-escapes all user-supplied strings; we never use dangerouslySetInnerHTML.
