Quote & invoice app for electricians in South Africa
Built for South African electricians— branded with your logo, VAT-ready, straight into your customer's WhatsApp.
Get started freeZakr is a quote and invoice app built for South African electricians. From a DB board upgrade to a Certificate of Compliance, you can send a branded, VAT-ready quote to your customer's WhatsApp on the spot — then invoice and get paid without ever touching a laptop.
DB board upgrade
Quote the board upgrade before you leave the property
When a customer's asking for a COC or a DB board upgrade, the sparky who quotes on the spot looks the part — and books the job before the next guy has opened his laptop. Save your standard items once and Zakr builds the quote in under a minute, itemised and branded with your logo.
Look qualified and compliant
A professional, itemised quote with your details and VAT number signals a registered, qualified electrician — not a fly-by-night. Add line items for the COC, materials and labour so the customer sees exactly what they're paying for, with no surprises when the invoice arrives.
Deposit in before you buy materials
Cable and components aren't cheap. Request a deposit the customer can pay online the moment they approve the quote, so you're not funding the job out of your own pocket. When it's done, convert to an invoice in one tap and let Zakr chase payment for you.
