The galla — the wooden cash box under the counter — has run Pakistani business for generations. Next to it sits a register for the khata and a memory full of prices. Egalla brings all three into the phone the shopkeeper already owns.
They expect a desktop, a card machine and English menus. They don’t understand udhaar, JazzCash, half-kilo mithai or a waiter shouting an order across a dhaba.
So we built Egalla for the way business actually works here: on a budget Android phone, in Urdu or English, offline when the internet drops — and simple enough to learn in one afternoon.
We handle people’s money. Totals are never ambiguous, every void is logged, and owners see the truth from anywhere.
Iftar rush, Eid shopping, month-start grocery runs. Fewest taps, biggest buttons, no waiting.
Urdu is a first language, not a translation. Local payments, local products, support from people who get it.
