For fabric shops
Fabric shop software that tracks stock by the metre
Know exactly how many metres are left on every roll. Record purchases from suppliers, sell 2.75 m without doing sums in your head, and get warned before you run out.
Free during the beta. Works on phone, iPad and computer.
What you can do
Stock in metres, yards, pieces or rolls
Each fabric keeps its own unit. Quantities work to two decimals, so 2.75 m is exactly 2.75 m.
Low-stock alerts
Set a level for each fabric and see what is running out before a customer asks for it.
Purchases and suppliers
Record what you bought, from whom and at what price. Stock goes up automatically.
Fast sales by the metre
Add fabrics to a sale, type the length, apply a discount. The total and tax are worked out for you.
GST and VAT bills
Fabric can have its own tax rate, separate from stitching. GST and VAT both work, and invoices for India show CGST and SGST or IGST with HSN codes.
Customer balances
Sell on credit and see what each customer still owes across their fabric purchases.
Full stock history
Every purchase and sale is kept against the fabric, so you can see where each metre went.
Works with tailoring
Run a fabric counter and a tailoring counter from the same app, with the same customers.
Returns and credit notes
Take fabric back in a few taps. Stock goes up, the bill goes down, and a credit note is made for invoiced sales.
Labels for rolls and shelves
Print labels with the fabric name, price and a barcode, then scan the label to add the fabric to a sale.

Guides for fabric shops
Fabric shops: questions and answers
Is it billing software for a cloth shop?
Yes. It is made for cloth and fabric shops: stock by the metre, purchases from suppliers, sales with tax, returns and labels with barcodes.
Can I sell in fractions of a metre?
Yes. Quantities are stored to two decimal places, so you can sell 0.25 m, 1.5 m or 2.75 m and stock and price stay exact.
Can fabric have a different tax rate from stitching?
Yes. Fabric sales have their own tax setting, so you can charge a different tax rate on fabric than on tailoring.
How do low-stock alerts work?
You set a minimum quantity for each fabric. When stock falls to that level the fabric is flagged, so you can reorder in time.
What if I sell more than I have in stock?
You choose. By default the sale is stopped with a clear message. You can instead allow it with a warning, and stock shows below zero until you record the purchase.
Where is my data stored?
In your own account, online. You sign up with an email and password, and your customers, orders, stock and bills are saved to a secure database as you work. Only you can see your shop's data. You can also download a full backup file or export spreadsheets at any time.
How much does it cost?
Loomton is free to use during the beta. Paid plans will be announced before the beta ends, and there will always be a free plan for small shops.
Which devices does it work on?
It runs in the browser on phones, iPads, Android tablets and computers. There is nothing to download: open the website, sign in and use it. You need an internet connection.
