If you use TallyPrime and want to send invoices on WhatsApp, you have two real choices. The first is TallyPrime with WhatsApp, the official connected service from Tally Solutions, which many people search for as Tally Prime WhatsApp or Tally 4.0 WhatsApp. The second is to download the Tally WhatsApp plugin from Fast2SMS, a free add-on that sends through your own Fast2SMS account. Both put invoices in your customer’s WhatsApp. They differ in how you pay and what comes in the box.<\/p>\n

This guide compares the two fairly, point by point, so you can pick the one that suits your business. Where we do not know the exact behaviour of Tally’s own service, we say so and point you to Tally’s current plan details instead of guessing. We are Fast2SMS, so we know our own plugin in detail; for the built-in service, always confirm with Tally or your Tally partner.<\/p>\n

\"TallyPrime
TallyPrime’s built-in WhatsApp service and the free Fast2SMS plugin, side by side.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What is TallyPrime with WhatsApp?<\/h2>\n

TallyPrime with WhatsApp is an official connected service from Tally Solutions, the company that makes TallyPrime. It lets you share documents like invoices, reports and reminders with your customers on WhatsApp from inside Tally. Because it comes from Tally itself, it fits into the product the way Tally designed it, and you get help through Tally and your Tally partner.<\/p>\n

It is a paid subscription service. We do not quote its price here, because plans and pricing are set by Tally Solutions and can change. If you are considering it, check Tally’s current plan details for the price, what is included and what your TallyPrime release needs. People often call it “Tally 4.0 WhatsApp” because WhatsApp sharing is linked in many minds with TallyPrime Release 4.0; your Tally partner can confirm which release you need.<\/p>\n

What is the free Fast2SMS Tally plugin?<\/h2>\n

The Fast2SMS Tally plugin is a free .TCP add-on for TallyPrime. You load it as a Local TDL or as an Account TDL through Tally.NET, switch on its SMS and WhatsApp modules in F1: Help > TDLs & Add-ons > F6: Add-On Features<\/strong>, and a Fast2SMS.com menu appears on the Gateway of Tally. It has no licence fee, no renewal and no setup or monthly fee. You pay only per message from your Fast2SMS wallet: \u20b90.25 per WhatsApp utility message, charged on delivery, with failed messages refunded automatically within 48 hours.<\/p>\n

It sends through the official WhatsApp Business API with Meta-approved templates, so there is no QR scan and no phone that must stay on. The invoice PDF goes as a document inside the WhatsApp message. The same plugin also sends SMS with your DLT sender ID. A free Fast2SMS account is required, because the plugin needs your API key. Full setup is in our Tally WhatsApp and SMS plugin guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

TallyPrime with WhatsApp vs the free plugin: side by side<\/h2>\n

Here is the comparison on the points Tally users ask about most. For the built-in service, “check Tally’s current plan details” means we do not want to guess; the answer may depend on your plan and TallyPrime release.<\/p>\n

Which one should you use?<\/h2>\n

There is no single right answer. It depends on how you like to pay and what you need beyond sharing a document.<\/p>\n

TallyPrime with WhatsApp may suit you if<\/strong> you prefer everything from one vendor, you already work closely with a Tally partner who manages your setup, and a subscription fits your budget. An official service from the maker of your accounting software is a sensible choice for many businesses, especially if you want one number to call for Tally and WhatsApp together.<\/p>\n

The free Fast2SMS plugin may suit you if<\/strong> you want no fixed fee and prefer to pay only for messages that are delivered, you need auto-send and bulk reminders, you want SMS with DLT in the same add-on, or you want to start today with ready templates and move to your own brand number later. It also suits CA firms and traders whose sending goes up and down month to month, because a quiet month costs nothing.<\/p>\n

If you are unsure, try the free plugin with the \u20b950 test credit you get after signup, and compare it with Tally’s current plan details for your volume. For how other paid options compare, see our Tally WhatsApp TDL price comparison<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How to try the free plugin in ten minutes<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Sign up free at fast2sms.com<\/a> and copy your API key from the Dev API section.<\/li>\n
  2. Download the plugin from the Fast2SMS Tally plugin folder<\/a> and load the .TCP file as a Local TDL, or as an Account TDL through Tally.NET.<\/li>\n
  3. Open your company and press F1: Help > TDLs & Add-ons > F6: Add-On Features<\/strong>. Set the WhatsApp module (and the SMS module if you need it) to Yes. Only the administrator sees this option.<\/li>\n
  4. Paste your API key in the plugin’s API Key Update screen from the new Fast2SMS.com menu.<\/li>\n
  5. Enter the default WhatsApp settings shown in the next section, then open a sales voucher and press the WhatsApp button.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \"Enable
    F6: Add-On Features: switch on the SMS and WhatsApp modules of the free plugin.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

    Start in two minutes with the ready default templates<\/h2>\n

    This is the biggest practical difference when you compare with any subscription service: with the free plugin you can send your first WhatsApp invoice minutes after installing, without setting up a WhatsApp number or waiting for approvals.<\/p>\n

    You do not need your own WhatsApp Business number or any Meta approval to start. Fast2SMS gives 20 ready, pre-approved templates on a default sender. After you paste your API key, make two entries:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Tally to WhatsApp > WhatsApp API Settings:<\/strong> type 123456789<\/strong> as the WABA Phone Number ID.<\/li>\n
    2. Tally to WhatsApp > WhatsApp Template Settings:<\/strong> enter the message IDs T101 to T120<\/strong> exactly as in the table below.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n

      What is TallyPrime with WhatsApp?<\/h3>\n

      TallyPrime with WhatsApp is an official connected service from Tally Solutions that lets you share documents like invoices, reports and reminders with customers on WhatsApp from inside TallyPrime. It is a paid subscription service. Check Tally’s current plan details for the price and what is included.<\/p>\n

      Is TallyPrime with WhatsApp free?<\/h3>\n

      No, TallyPrime with WhatsApp is a paid subscription service from Tally Solutions, not a free feature that comes with every TallyPrime licence at no extra cost. We do not quote its price because Tally sets and updates its plans. For the current price and inclusions, check Tally’s current plan details or ask your Tally partner.<\/p>\n

      What is Tally 4.0 WhatsApp?<\/h3>\n

      “Tally 4.0 WhatsApp” is how many people search for WhatsApp sharing in TallyPrime, because they link the feature with TallyPrime Release 4.0. The official service is called TallyPrime with WhatsApp. Your Tally partner can confirm which release and plan you need for it.<\/p>\n

      Is there a free WhatsApp plugin for TallyPrime?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, the Fast2SMS Tally plugin is a free .TCP add-on for TallyPrime with no licence fee, no renewal and no setup or monthly fee. You pay only per message from your Fast2SMS wallet, and a free Fast2SMS account is needed for the API key.<\/p>\n

      Where can I download the Tally WhatsApp plugin?<\/h3>\n

      You can download the Tally WhatsApp plugin from the official Fast2SMS Google Drive folder linked in the Download Tally Plugin button on this page. Load the .TCP file as a Local TDL or as an Account TDL through Tally.NET, then enable its modules.<\/p>\n

      What is the main difference between the two?<\/h3>\n

      The main difference is the cost model: TallyPrime with WhatsApp is a paid subscription from Tally Solutions, while the Fast2SMS plugin is free and you pay only per delivered message. The plugin also includes SMS with DLT, auto-send, bulk sending and ready default templates in the same add-on.<\/p>\n

      Which is cheaper, TallyPrime with WhatsApp or the Fast2SMS plugin?<\/h3>\n

      It depends on your volume, because one is a subscription and the other is pay per message at \u20b90.25 per delivered WhatsApp utility message. Multiply your monthly invoice count by \u20b90.25 and compare that with Tally’s current plan details. A quiet month costs nothing with the plugin.<\/p>\n

      Can I use the free plugin if I do not have a TallyPrime with WhatsApp subscription?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, the Fast2SMS plugin works on its own and does not need the TallyPrime with WhatsApp subscription or any other paid Tally service to send messages. It sends through your Fast2SMS account using the official WhatsApp Business API. You need TallyPrime, the .TCP file and a free Fast2SMS account with its API key.<\/p>\n

      Can I use both TallyPrime with WhatsApp and the Fast2SMS plugin?<\/h3>\n

      The Fast2SMS plugin loads as a separate add-on with its own Fast2SMS.com menu and send buttons, so it does not replace anything in Tally. If you use both, decide which one sends which document, so your customers do not get the same invoice twice.<\/p>\n

      Does the free plugin use the official WhatsApp Business API?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, the Fast2SMS plugin sends through the official WhatsApp Business API with Meta-approved templates, so there is no QR code to scan, no phone that must stay connected and no ban risk from WhatsApp Web automation. See Tally to WhatsApp without QR<\/a>.<\/p>\n

      Does TallyPrime with WhatsApp need a QR scan or my phone?<\/h3>\n

      We do not want to guess how Tally’s own service connects in every plan, so please check Tally’s current plan details or ask your Tally partner. With the Fast2SMS plugin, there is no QR scan and your phone does not need to be on, because it uses the WhatsApp Business API.<\/p>\n

      Can I send the invoice PDF on WhatsApp with the free plugin?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, the Fast2SMS plugin sends the invoice PDF as a document inside an approved WhatsApp template, so the customer opens it right in the chat. You see a preview with the message and the customer’s mobile number before it goes. Read how to send invoice on WhatsApp from Tally<\/a>.<\/p>\n

      Do I need Meta approval to start with the free plugin?<\/h3>\n

      No, you can start with the 20 ready, pre-approved default templates on the Fast2SMS default sender, so there is nothing to submit to Meta on day one. Type 123456789 as the WABA Phone Number ID and T101 to T120 as the message IDs, save, and you can send the same day. Meta approval is only needed for your own number.<\/p>\n

      Can I send invoices from my own business number?<\/h3>\n

      With the Fast2SMS plugin, yes: complete the free Meta embedded signup, press Add Templates to META Account, then replace the default phone number ID and message IDs with your own. For TallyPrime with WhatsApp, check Tally’s current plan details for what sender options are available.<\/p>\n

      Which one supports auto-send when I save a voucher?<\/h3>\n

      The Fast2SMS plugin supports auto-send: per voucher type, you can send the WhatsApp message the moment a voucher is created or altered. For whether TallyPrime with WhatsApp offers the same, check Tally’s current plan details, since features can differ by plan and release.<\/p>\n

      Which one supports bulk invoices and bulk payment reminders?<\/h3>\n

      The Fast2SMS plugin supports bulk invoices from the sales register and bulk outstanding reminders from Statement of Account > Outstanding > Group > Debtors. For the built-in service, check Tally’s current plan details. Our guide to Tally payment reminders<\/a> shows the plugin’s steps.<\/p>\n

      Can I send SMS from Tally with the same tool?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, with the Fast2SMS plugin you can, because it has an SMS module alongside the WhatsApp module in the same add-on, both paid from one wallet. SMS needs DLT registration for your sender ID and templates, and the invoice PDF goes as a short link. TallyPrime with WhatsApp is a WhatsApp service; check Tally’s current plan details for SMS.<\/p>\n

      Do I need DLT registration for WhatsApp from Tally?<\/h3>\n

      No, WhatsApp messages from Tally do not need DLT registration, because DLT applies only to business SMS sent in India, not to WhatsApp. If you want SMS from the Fast2SMS plugin as well, you register your sender ID and templates on DLT first. Our Tally SMS DLT templates<\/a> give ready wording.<\/p>\n

      Where do I see delivery reports?<\/h3>\n

      With the Fast2SMS plugin, both the Tally to WhatsApp and Tally to SMS menus have a Delivery Report screen inside Tally, and full logs stay in your Fast2SMS panel. For delivery reporting in TallyPrime with WhatsApp, check Tally’s current plan details.<\/p>\n

      Who gives support for each option?<\/h3>\n

      TallyPrime with WhatsApp is supported by Tally Solutions and your Tally partner, while the Fast2SMS plugin is supported directly by the Fast2SMS team. You can reach Fast2SMS at support@fast2sms.com and +91-6262778822, and book a free screen-share meeting to install and set up the plugin with you.<\/p>\n

      How much does a WhatsApp invoice cost with the free plugin?<\/h3>\n

      Each WhatsApp invoice costs \u20b90.25 with the Fast2SMS plugin, because Tally templates are utility messages, and you are charged only on delivery. Failed messages are refunded to your wallet automatically within 48 hours. There is no fee for the plugin itself.<\/p>\n

      Which TallyPrime version does the free plugin need?<\/h3>\n

      The Fast2SMS plugin is built for TallyPrime and loads as a standard .TCP add-on, as a Local TDL or an Account TDL through Tally.NET. It is not a feature tied to a Tally subscription. If you are unsure whether your TallyPrime setup is ready, our support team will check it with you.<\/p>\n

      Does the free plugin work with Tally ERP 9?<\/h3>\n

      No, the Fast2SMS plugin works only in TallyPrime and does not work in Tally ERP 9, so businesses still on ERP 9 need to upgrade to TallyPrime first. Every menu and step in our guides, such as the Fast2SMS.com menu and F6: Add-On Features, refers to TallyPrime screens.<\/p>\n

      Are paid third-party Tally WhatsApp TDLs a better option?<\/h3>\n

      Paid third-party Tally WhatsApp TDLs commonly cost \u20b93,000 to \u20b96,000 plus GST, and some add a yearly panel renewal, so they are a third cost model to compare. Check what they include and how they send. See our guide to TDL for Tally to WhatsApp<\/a>.<\/p>\n

      Can I switch from TallyPrime with WhatsApp to the free plugin later?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, you can start using the Fast2SMS plugin at any time by loading the .TCP file, enabling its modules and entering your API key and templates. Your Tally data stays the same. For ending or changing your Tally subscription, check Tally’s current plan details or ask your Tally partner.<\/p>\n

      Is the free plugin safe for sending bulk messages?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, because the Fast2SMS plugin uses the official WhatsApp Business API with approved templates, bulk sending does not carry the ban risk of WhatsApp Web tools. Send only to your own customers who expect your invoices and reminders. That keeps your messaging quality healthy.<\/p>\n

      Can I test the free plugin before deciding?<\/h3>\n

      Yes, sign up free at Fast2SMS, get \u20b950 free test credit after signup, install the plugin and send a few test invoices to your own number using the default templates. That lets you judge it in your own Tally before you compare costs with Tally’s current plan details.<\/p>\n

      What can I send from Tally with the free plugin?<\/h3>\n

      You can send sales invoices, delivery notes, sales orders, purchase orders, receipts, payments, POS vouchers, credit notes, journal and ledger vouchers, ledger confirmations and outstanding, plus stock summary, profit and loss, balance sheet and trial balance. See sending Tally reports on WhatsApp<\/a>.<\/p>\n

      The short answer<\/h2>\n

      If you want an official subscription service from the maker of your accounting software, look at TallyPrime with WhatsApp and check Tally’s current plan details. If you want to pay nothing for the add-on, pay only for delivered messages, and get auto-send, bulk reminders, SMS with DLT and ready templates in one place, download the Tally WhatsApp plugin from Fast2SMS and try it today.
