Who is Tabfather built for?
Mobile bar companies, event bartending businesses, and the crews behind them. Solo supports an owner with up to three active crew members. Team adds unlimited crew, managers, multiple brands, and a partner bench. Multi supports businesses coordinating multiple benches and metros.
Can I use my own packages, prices, and agreements?
Yes. Configure your brands, packages, recipes, pricing inputs, pay rules, and agreement templates. Proposals and plans use your business settings, and you review the assumptions and approvals before committing.
Do my crew, clients, and venues need paid accounts?
No. Your business pays for the subscription. Crew access, client event portals, and venue participation do not require separate paid subscriptions.
What happens when there’s no signal at the venue?
Supported crew actions can be recorded offline and synchronized when the connection returns. Online payments, provider confirmations, and some shared updates require a connection. Offline status stays visible so the crew knows what still needs to sync.
Can I bring my existing records?
Yes. The business import workflow lets you inspect extracted records, map them to your workspace, and review source references before applying them. Records with missing or ambiguous information need your review.
How do payments and tips work?
Payment features use Stripe and require a connected, verified payment account. Tabfather does not add a platform fee to staff tips or mark up partner bench labor. Stripe processing fees and other provider charges are separate from your subscription.
Can I sign up today?
Yes. Create your account, verify your email, and set up your business. Select your subscription in Business settings. Crew, client, and venue access are included without separate paid seats.
GOOD NIGHTS. SOUND BUSINESS.
Put your whole
damn business together.
The gigs. The people. The details.
Give the business behind the bar a proper home.
