Process

How it works

From the counter to a VAT return you can file, with a person approving before anything counts.

1

Sell at the counterالبيع عند الكاشير

Your cashier opens the till with a six-digit code, rings the sale and prints the bill. Shift takings, refunds and pay-outs are all recorded against the person who rang them up.

2

Stock moves with itالمخزون يتحدّث فورًا

Every sale takes the item off the shelf on every screen at once, per branch. Low stock shows itself before you run out, and transfers between branches are counted in, not guessed.

3

Bills arrive by WhatsAppالفواتير تصل عبر واتساب

Photograph a supplier invoice or receipt and send it to your Rakam number. The AI pulls out the vendor, amount, VAT and category, and flags what it cannot decide rather than guessing.

4

A person approvesشخص يعتمد القيد

Every captured entry waits in a review queue. Staff can capture but never approve their own, and nothing reaches the books until the owner or accountant confirms it.

5

Profit and VAT, liveالأرباح والضريبة لحظيًا

Approved entries land in your profit and loss the moment they count, and in a VAT201 laid out box by box like EmaraTax's own form. You read the numbers and file the return.

6

Everything stays provableكل شيء قابل للإثبات

Every entry keeps its original document, every change is hash-chained and nothing can be silently deleted. The owner gets reports on WhatsApp and the accountant can prove any figure to an auditor.

Features

What you get

Built for UAE counters, stockrooms and online orders, against FTA requirements rather than adapted from a Western accounting template.

POS billing

Sell, refund and exchange at the counter with a barcode scanner or by search. Cash, card and split payments, discounts with manager approval, and a shift that closes with the drawer counted. Each cashier signs in with their own six-digit code.

Live inventory

Per-branch stock that updates on every screen as sales happen. Sizes and variants are separate lines that still group together when you search. Low-stock alerts, and branch transfers that are counted in at the receiving end.

Real-time profit and loss

Revenue, cost of sales and margin as they happen, by day, branch or product. Cost and margin are owner and accountant views; a cashier never sees them.

WhatsApp capture

Staff photograph supplier invoices and receipts and send them to your Rakam number. The AI reads the vendor, amount, VAT and category; nothing new to install.

Accountant review queue

Every AI-captured entry waits for a human. Staff can capture but never self-approve, so the reviewer's judgement stays part of the record.

VAT201, box by box

Prepared for you and laid out to match EmaraTax’s own form, with every figure traceable to the document it came from. Rakam never files on your behalf — you check it and submit.

Corporate tax, worked out

Article 33 entertainment and Article 28 fines surfaced as add-backs, and Small Business Relief tested against the AED 3m threshold before you rely on it.

Verifiable audit trail

Every change is recorded server-side and SHA-256 hash-chained. An auditor can verify nothing was altered rather than take our word for it.

Z-Report reconciliation

Daily takings matched against card terminal settlements automatically, with variances flagged the same day rather than at month end.

Multi-client accountant workspace

One accountant, many clients. Switch between companies, review pending entries and track your activity across every client in one place.

Zoho and QuickBooks sync

Push approved transactions into the platform you already use. Rakam feeds your general ledger, it does not replace it.

E-invoicing ready

Every transaction is structured to the UAE's Peppol/PINT-AE format today, so connecting an accredited service provider later is a connection, not a rebuild.

UAE Compliance

FTA-ready records, from the till up

جاهز للهيئة الاتحادية للضرائب. محمي من التدقيق.

The UAE Federal Tax Authority requires VAT-registered businesses to keep records for five years, and seven for Corporate Tax. Every counter sale, supplier invoice and stock movement is kept with its document, timestamped, tamper-evident and exportable on demand. Rakam prepares the VAT201 from your approved entries; you review it and file it with the FTA.

  • VAT201 prepared from your approved entries, for you to file
  • Every figure traceable to its source document or till receipt
  • Five-year VAT and seven-year Corporate Tax retention
  • Append-only audit log, verifiable on demand
  • Records cannot be silently deleted
  • Structured to Peppol/PINT-AE for e-invoicing
