The problem with today's POS systems

💸 High monthly fees + percentages on every sale

You're paying £100–200/month plus 2–3% on every transaction. That's thousands a year just for basic features.

📡 Systems that go dark when WiFi drops

It's Friday night, the bar is packed, WiFi crashes—and suddenly you can't take orders. Your POS shouldn't depend on the internet.

🔒 Expensive, locked-in hardware and long contracts

Proprietary tablets cost hundreds, and switching providers means starting from scratch. You deserve better.

Tab focuses on what actually matters behind the bar

Three principles. No compromises.

💰

£5/month, flat

No percentages. No hidden fees. Cancel anytime. One price for unlimited transactions.

📱

Offline-first

Keep serving when WiFi dies. Tab syncs automatically when you're back online—no data lost.

🖥️

Any device

Runs in the browser on iPads, Android tablets, or that old laptop in the office. No proprietary hardware.

See Tab in action

This is our live visual prototype—no real data yet, but a good peek at how fast and simple Tab will feel behind the bar.

How Tab feels on a busy night

1

Open a new tab, add drinks, and close in two taps

No hunting through menus. Big buttons, clear labels, instant feedback.

2

Keep serving for hours even if the internet goes down

Tab stores everything locally. When WiFi comes back, it syncs automatically.

3

See today's sales and top sellers at a glance before you go home

Simple reports, exportable to CSV. Your data, your way.

Questions bar owners ask us

Do I still need a payment provider?

Yes. Tab is your POS, not your processor. You keep using your existing card terminal or online payments, and Tab just makes it easy to run the bar.

When will Tab be ready for my bar?

We're preparing a private beta in 2026 with a small group of independent bars in the UK, US and across Europe. Join the waitlist and we'll reach out when we're ready for your location and setup.

Will this work with the hardware I already have?

If you have a reasonably recent iPad, Android tablet, or laptop that runs a modern browser, you're good. Tab runs in the browser—no proprietary hardware required.

What if I want to leave?

You can export all your data to CSV at any time. We don't sell your data and we don't lock you in. If Tab isn't a fit, we'll help you move on with a clean export.

Why we're building Tab

V

Hi, I'm Victor Nascimento. I've worked both behind the bar and in the back office — as a bartender in Boston and Lisbon, and as the night auditor reconciling every drink and every shift for five-star and premium hotels in Portugal, the US and Brazil.

I know exactly how it feels when a POS is slow, fragile or wrong at 3 a.m. on a busy night. Tab is the tool I always wished existed: fast, offline-first, and financially accurate.

If you're an independent bar owner who's tired of overpaying for a slow POS, I'd love to build Tab with you in the early beta. You'll be talking directly to the founder, not a support bot.
