UbarTab turns the long-lived, staff-managed tab into a real-time system for Shopify — live stations on the floor, intelligent forecasting behind the scenes, and secure settlement out front. Built for bars and restaurants, fabric and yarn shops, custom automotive, and anyone else who runs a tab instead of a single sale.
A tab is any long-lived transaction that's touched by multiple people before it settles. Over 100 shops across these verticals already run on it.
Open tabs all night without losing track of who owes what. Split any way your regulars ask, and close out without a reconciliation scramble.
Cut to the exact yard, meter, or skein — priced to the sub-cent so nothing gets rounded away on a big order. Deposits stay tracked from the first cut to final pickup.
A vehicle can sit in a bay for days while parts, labor, and customer approvals pile up. UbarTab keeps it all on one tab, from diagnosis to invoice.
Layaway, repairs, special orders — anything that starts before it's paid for stays live and visible until it's picked up and settled.
The core systems behind every tab — live today, not roadmap slides.
Real-time views of every open tab across every station — the bar, the cutting table, the service bay — synced instantly to tablets and wall screens. No more shouting across the room.
Replenishment reports, demand and prep forecasts, and capacity planning — generated from tabs as they form, not just orders after they settle.
Vault a card once, settle automatically at close — through your own connected Stripe account. Money truth never leaves Shopify Checkout.
Every item added to a tab reflects in Shopify POS instantly — accurate stock, no double-entry, no end-of-night surprises.
Sell by the yard, the foot, or any fraction of a unit — priced to the sub-cent internally, with invoice-based receiving and no purchase orders required.
This platform grows from what merchants actually ask for — not a fixed roadmap.
