Bizim Hesap vs LUCA

Bizim Hesap is a Turkish cloud pre-accounting service for small businesses, shopkeepers and sole traders. It replaces notebooks and spreadsheets with a simple web and mobile app for issuing invoices, tracking who owes what and seeing cash flow, and it is designed for business owners who are not accountants.

Users create sales and purchase invoices and issue e-invoices and e-archive invoices in line with the Turkish Revenue Administration (GİB) requirements. Customer and supplier accounts show balances and payment history; cash, bank and credit card accounts track money in and out; expenses can be recorded quickly; and stock tracking follows products and quantities. Reports summarize sales, collections, payables and profitability, and the business's accountant can be given access to review records and prepare filings. Pricing is a subscription in Turkish lira, typically billed annually, and changes periodically with inflation.

Bizim Hesap suits micro and small businesses that want straightforward invoicing and receivables tracking without the depth of an ERP. It is Turkey-specific, has fewer third-party integrations than larger rivals, and growing companies with complex inventory, production or multi-branch needs will outgrow it. Paraşüt is the best-known alternative with more integrations, Logo İşbaşı brings the backing of Logo Yazılım and a path to its ERP products, and KolayBi targets the same small-business segment.

The practical choice between these tools usually comes down to interface preference, the accountant's familiarity and the current lira price.

LUCA is a Turkish accounting software family launched in 2005 by TÜRMOB, the union of Turkish certified public accountants (mali müşavir), through its training arm TESMER. TÜRMOB describes it as Turkey's first web-based central accounting system. Luca Net was added for businesses at the end of 2013. Its core job is to let accountants keep the books of all their client companies in one system and file Turkish tax returns and e-ledgers directly with the Revenue Administration (GİB).

The flagship Mali Müşavir Paketi (MMP) prepares VAT, withholding (muhtasar), provisional tax, BA/BS and income or corporate tax returns and sends them to GİB e-Beyanname in bulk, produces e-Defter files, runs payroll with SGK incentives, imports bank statements and calculates inflation accounting. For businesses, Luca Net KOBİ handles current accounts, stock, invoicing, e-Fatura and e-Arşiv, and posts entries straight into the accountant's LUCA ledger; Luca Net One is a lighter version and Luca Koza targets larger firms. Pricing is in Turkish lira with a one-time entry fee plus an annual fee.

LUCA fits independent accountants and the small businesses they serve, especially when both sides use it and data flows without exports. It is weaker on modern UX, mobile apps and open APIs. Paraşüt and Logo İşbaşı are friendlier for business owners doing their own pre-accounting, while Mikro suits companies that need a full desktop ERP.

Buying tip: newly licensed accountants can get the MMP entry support package with no entry fee, and the e-Defter license is a separate one-time ₺9,000 charge.
