Before you leave Daftra
Is Haseem compliant with Phase 2?
Yes. Haseem is approved by the Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority and meets Phase 2 requirements — on every plan, from the entry plan, with no upgrade to buy.
What is the main difference between Haseem and Daftra?
On Daftra, Phase 2 starts at the Advanced plan (155 a month), and Basic (95) is Phase 1 only. On Haseem, Phase 2 is in the entry plan at 49 a month.
Does Haseem include a point of sale?
Yes. The cashier is included on every plan and you switch it on inside the software: one checkout point on Invoicing, two on Essential, and five on Business, with the option to add more at 49 a month each. The cashier issues simplified invoices that meet Phase 2 and link straight to stock.
Do simplified invoices from the till count toward the invoice limit?
Yes. Simplified invoices issued at the till count toward the plan's monthly invoice limit. High-volume shops are best on the Business plan, where invoices are unlimited.
Are there per-user fees?
Inside your plan there are no monthly per-user fees — plans include 1, 2, and 5 users. On Daftra, an extra user is 26.25 a month (315 a year).
Is the accounting complete in Haseem?
Yes. Chart of accounts, manual journals, general ledger, income statement, balance sheet, trial balance, and the tax return — from the Essential plan.
Can I move my data across from Daftra?
Yes. You export your data out of Daftra and send the files across, and the Haseem team helps you move step by step. Message the team on WhatsApp to start.
When is Daftra the better choice?
If you need a public API (from Advanced), a large Arabic content library, or ready integrations with Salla, Zid, WooCommerce, and Zapier.
Do the prices include VAT?
No. Prices shown exclude VAT, which is added at the statutory rate.
Is Haseem a good Daftra alternative in Saudi Arabia?
Yes. For a Saudi business that wants ZATCA Phase 2 and full accounting without a forced upgrade, Haseem is a strong Daftra alternative — Phase 2 is in every plan from 49 a month, while Daftra gates Phase 2 to its Advanced plan.
