No. Every feature works 100% offline. Only the AI camera scan and WhatsApp sharing need a connection.
Is this SARS-compliant?
Yes. Invoices are formatted as TAX INVOICES per SARS requirements. VAT201 reports export exactly as SARS needs for eFiling. All 2026/2026/27 tax rates are built in.
Can I install on my phone without an app store?
Yes — open Setwel in Chrome, tap "Add to Home Screen" from the menu. The app icon appears on your home screen like a native app. Works offline immediately.
What happens after my 30-day trial?
Your data is preserved. You'll see an upgrade prompt. Choose a plan and everything continues exactly as you left it. Nothing is ever deleted.
How does the camera scanner work?
Tap the camera button, point at any receipt or invoice. AI reads the supplier, invoice number, every line item, VAT and total. You just review and save. No typing needed.
Your books. Your phone. Your power.

Business Details
Most spaza shops and small home businesses are not VAT registered — that's completely normal below the R1 million/year SARS threshold. Select "No" and your invoices simply won't add VAT. You can switch this on later once you register.
