Silaikar

Questions workrooms ask.

Starting

How do I sign in?

With your WhatsApp number: a code comes on WhatsApp. The code lasts 10 minutes. Nobody from Silaikar will ever ask you for it. No WhatsApp message? Get the code by email.

How do I add my first karigar?

Add their face and their 3 pictures. On a shared phone, each karigar opens their own card by touching their 3 pictures.

Can the whole floor use one phone?

Yes. Each karigar presses their face, then their 3 pictures. A shared phone shows no money. The pictures tell who is who on a shared phone. They are not a secret against someone who wants to cheat.

On the floor

How is a card finished?

Scan the tag when the job has one; otherwise tap Done. No signal: tap Done on the card.

What does red mean?

Late. A card turns red before its date, not after.

What about a redo?

A red check means the work is done again. The redo is already in the week’s figures.

Money

Does the money go through the app?

No. Silaikar only writes it down. The money itself moves by hand.

How does a karigar get the slip?

Confirm the week and each slip goes out on WhatsApp.

Who sees the money?

Only you see the week’s wages. A shared phone shows no money; a karigar sees their own on a personal phone.

The shop

What does the shop see?

The stages and photos of its own orders. Never your wages or your costs.

Free

What does it cost?

The first year is free for everyone. Free for ever up to five workers. The first workrooms to run on Silaikar keep it free for ever.

Deleting

How do I delete my account?

Write from the number or address your account signs in with. Everything is on this page: Delete your account
