Confused about choosing a Billing Machine For Your Business? Here are 10 Features to Look for in a Billing Machine (2025 Guide):
Running a business today whether itās a restaurant, supermarket, cafĆ©, or retail shop, means more than just handling customers.
You need speed, accuracy, and compliance, especially with GST rules in place. Thatās where a reliable billing machine comes in. But with so many models on the market, how do you decide which one is right for your business?
In this 2025 guide, weāll break down the 10 must-have features to look for in a billing machine. Weāll also highlight some of the most popular Balaji billing machines available at BillingCart.in, your trusted Balaji Billing Machine Dealer in Pune.
1. GST Compliance
A billing machine in India must generate GST-compliant invoices. This not only keeps you legally safe but also simplifies your tax filing process.
All of our modelsālike the BBP 3T SUPER STAR and BBP 2T SUPER STARācome with GST billing as a built-in feature.
š Pro Tip: Always check if the machine prints GST separately for each item. This makes your accounting smoother.
2. Printer Quality & Speed
Your billing machine should offer fast and clear printouts.
- 3-inch thermal printers (like in the BBP 3T) are great for supermarkets and restaurants.
- 2-inch thermal printers (like in the BBP 2T and Junior models) work well for smaller shops and cafƩs.
Speed matters. For example, the BBP 3T can handle 50mm/sec printing, which means faster lines and happier customers.
3. Product Storage Capacity
Think about how many products you need to store in your machine.
- Entry-level models like the BBP Junior store a limited product rangeāperfect for small setups.
- Advanced models like the BBP 3T store 1500+ products, making them ideal for larger businesses.
š If you run a cafĆ© with 30 menu items, a Junior Star may be enough. But if you manage a supermarket with thousands of SKUs, go for a high-capacity model.
4. Multi-User Login Support
A good billing machine should allow multiple staff logins. Most Balaji machines support up to 99 users, so you can track billing by staff membersāuseful for accountability and performance tracking.
5. Reports & Analytics
Modern billing isnāt just about invoicesāitās about insights.
Look for machines that generate reports like:
- Daily sales
- Item-wise sales
- Tax reports
- Stock reports
Balaji billing machines like the BBP 2T SUPER STAR and BBP 3T SUPER STAR provide 15+ to 30+ report types, helping you manage inventory and monitor sales patterns.
6. Power Backup & Battery Life
In a city like Pune where power cuts still happen, a billing machine with battery backup is non-negotiable. Balaji machines come with a 7.4V rechargeable battery, capable of printing 200+ bills per charge.
For outdoor setups like parking booths, the BHP 2T Parking / Toll Machine and BHP 3T are designed with rugged battery performance.
7. Connectivity Options
Your billing machine should adapt to your setup. Look for:
- USB / Pen Drive Transfer (to back up data or update rates)
- PC Connectivity (for syncing data)
- Weighing Scale Integration (essential for grocery stores)
- Barcode / Keyboard Support (for faster operations)
The BBP 2T Junior Star offers all of these at an affordable price.
8. Ease of Use (Keypad & Display)
A billing machine should be easy for staff to learn.
- Graphic LCD displays provide clarity.
- 30-key keypads (available in BBP 2T and 3T) make operations quicker.
If your business has frequent staff changes, a user-friendly interface will save you time and training costs.
9. Durability & Warranty
Always check warranty terms. All Balaji machines at BillingCart.in come with a 1-year warranty. These machines are designed to handle high workloads, making them long-lasting investments.
10. Business-Specific Features
Not all businesses have the same needs:
- Restaurants & CafƩs: Go for models with KOT (Kitchen Order Ticket) and coupon printing. (e.g. BBP 3T, BBP 2T Junior Star)
- Retail & Grocery Stores: Choose machines with scale integration and stock reports. (e.g. BBP 2T, BBP 3T)
