“We looked at other expense systems but it just didn't compare to the technology that Tab has.”Teresa, Accounting Specialist, Rock Strategic (75+ units)
Nobody changes cards for fun. What costs you is the setup you already run, and the week it eats every month.
Any card can set a limit. Restaurants still need to know who spent, where it belongs, where the receipt is, and which books get the charge. There is no time savings in a restaurant, only where that time goes.
One statement can create weeks of follow-up for a multi-location finance team.
The employee swipes. Tab texts and emails for the receipt. The purchase stays tied to the right person, location, and entity before it reaches your books.

It is not just your GMs. Directors of operations, maintenance leads, controllers, office staff, and corporate spenders all buy for the restaurant. Each one gets a card with its own limit.

Your team is terrible at handing in receipts. Every team is. So Tab texts them the second the card is swiped: tap, photo, done.
A card alone moves money. Tab handles the work around the purchase so the books are easier to close.
A full QuickBooks Online integration. Coded spend flows into QuickBooks Online, while customizable CSV exports support other ledgers.
A five-location restaurant group may have five LLCs and five bank accounts. Tab keeps the spend connected to the part of the business that owns it.
Locations

Repayment
Without the right structure: finance pays one bill, moves money between locations, and balances the difference later. Tab keeps that work closer to the original purchase.
Bring your locations, LLCs, and bank account setup. The Tab team will show you how cards, receipts, repayment, and accounting can fit together.
Restaurant teams should not have to build a card program alone. Tab helps set up cards, budgets, locations, receipt workflows, and accounting handoffs, then stays available through live chat and email.

Yes. The Base plan is free and includes unlimited virtual and physical cards, expense and receipt automation, a full QuickBooks Online integration, and live human support. There is no annual card fee. Base also earns a flat 1% cash back on every swipe with no cap, and up to 1.5% is the ceiling. It is money the spend was already going to earn, and it does not show up as a line on your P&L.
Tab can organize cards and spend around the restaurant group's locations, business entities, and bank accounts. Each purchase stays tied to the right part of the business, which reduces the manual work of sorting one shared statement at month-end.
The second a card is swiped, Tab texts and emails the cardholder for the receipt. They tap the prompt, take a photo, and add any context. The average text receipt submission time is 90 seconds.
Yes. A full QuickBooks Online integration is included in the Base plan. Tab also offers customizable CSV exports for other accounting ledgers.
Restaurant groups can issue cards to everyone who actually buys for the business, including directors of operations, maintenance leads, controllers, office staff, and corporate spenders. Each card can have its own controls, and big fixed bills like rent and sales tax can run on the card too.
No. Applying for a Tab Card does not require a credit check.
