Pricing questions

What does TAB cost?

It depends on how each bill is paid, and creating an order costs nothing. A bill paid through TAB pays one transaction fee out of the payment: 2.5% plus ₦ 150.00, plus VAT, capped at ₦ 3,650.00 before VAT. A bill settled in cash, on your own POS or by a transfer straight to you uses one credit, ₦ 150.00 VAT included, and no fee. Settlement to your bank the next business day is free, and each withdrawal you make from your TAB balance costs a flat ₦ 100.00. There is no subscription, no setup fee and no charge per user or per branch.

What is a credit?

A prepaid bill settled outside TAB. Recording a cash, POS or direct-transfer payment uses one, so 50 credits covers the next 50 of those bills. Your balance is a count of bills, not a sum of naira. Credits cost ₦ 150.00 each, VAT included, in packs of 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500.

Do I need credits if my customers pay through TAB?

Not for those bills: they pay the transaction fee out of the payment instead. Credits are for bills settled outside TAB, bills left open for a day, and the nightly report if you want it.

What counts as one bill?

Rounds added to a table or a room belong to the same bill, and an appointment's deposit and balance count once. Each bill is charged once, by how it is paid.

What are free credits?

The 30 credits every business starts with and any you earn by referring. Each covers one bill settled in cash, on POS or by a transfer straight to you, just as a bought credit does; they don't cover the transaction fee on a bill paid through TAB. They are used before credits you buy and last 90 days. Credits you buy never expire.

What happens if I run out?

At zero, a bill settled in cash or on POS can't be recorded until you top up, though the customer can still pay it through TAB. Bills left open for a day can take you below zero; at -10, staff can't start new orders and your table and room codes take payment as customers order. Auto-refill is on unless you switch it off: whenever you drop to 10, 50 more credits are bought from your TAB balance.

What is the fee on a payment?

One transaction fee: 2.5% plus ₦ 150.00, plus VAT at 7.5%, and never more than ₦ 3,650.00 before VAT. A ₦ 2,000.00 payment costs ₦ 215.00 all in, a ₦ 15,000.00 payment ₦ 564.38, and anything from ₦ 140,000.00 up ₦ 3,923.75, because the fee is at its cap. You can choose to pass the fee to your customer at checkout, so they pay it on top of the bill.

Can my customer pay the fee instead of me?

Yes. You can choose to pass the transaction fee to the customer at checkout, so it is added to what they pay and you receive the full bill. Bills settled in cash or on POS are unaffected.

Is anything not charged a fee?

Cash, payments taken on your own POS machine, and transfers made straight to your bank account. Record them in TAB so the bill is complete. They use one credit each, and no fee.

Do my branches need their own credits?

No. Branches draw on their main business's credits.

What if a bill was left open by mistake?

A bill still open after 24 hours uses a credit. Cancel it within a day after that, say the customer walked out, and the credit comes back.

Is the AI free?

Ask Tabby, the assistant in the app, is free up to 30 questions a day. The nightly report, an AI-written summary of the day by email, is 1 credit a night, and you can switch it off.

Can I take payments before my business is verified?

Yes, up to ₦ 5,000,000.00 a month until your verification is approved, and payouts wait until then. A business verified without CAC registration keeps that monthly limit; one verified with its CAC registration has none.

Does it cost anything to be paid out?

No. Settlement to your bank the next business day is free. Only a withdrawal you make yourself from your TAB balance costs a flat ₦ 100.00, taken along with the amount you withdraw.

What do I get for referring another business?

20 free credits, once 20 of their bills of ₦1,000 or more have been paid through TAB, for up to 10 businesses a year. They start with the same 30 free credits as any new business. Your link is in Settings, under Referrals.
