Searching for a Bookipi alternative in Malaysia? Both apps do the same core job — make a quotation or invoice on your phone and send the PDF on WhatsApp. The real difference is who each one was built for. Bookipi is a global app made in Sydney, Australia; QuoFast is made in Malaysia for the Malaysian format and tax rules.

“Not Malaysia-specific” means the app is not built around SST and the SSM number — you can usually enter them by hand. Prices are as of 2026; check each app’s store listing for the current figure. Bookipi is a trademark of its owner; this page is an independent comparison.
Where QuoFast wins
QuoFast is built around one country. SST at 6% for construction, renovation, electrical, plumbing and M&E work — or 8% for most other services — is a preset, not a box you configure. Your SSM number, a Malaysian address layout, ringgit totals and a sebut harga that reads the way local customers expect all come as standard. The app speaks English, Bahasa Melayu and Mandarin, and the subscription is in ringgit — RM 29.90 a month, which is lower than Bookipi's US-dollar mobile plan once you convert it.
Where Bookipi might suit you better
Bookipi is a mature, polished product with a large global user base, a web version and extra tools like recurring invoices, card payments and a website builder on its higher plans. If you bill international clients in several currencies, want a desktop web app as well as the phone, or already use Bookipi and are happy, there is no urgent reason to switch. A good tool is the one you will actually use every week.
Honest bottom line
If most of your customers are in Malaysia and you want a quotation or invoice that already fits SST, SSM and ringgit — in your language, at a local price — QuoFast is the more natural fit. If you bill the world and live on the web, Bookipi earns its place. Both have a free tier, so the cheapest way to decide is to make one real document in each.
