tab. — Terms of Service
Last updated: June 4, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Concentric Solutions Group LLC d/b/a tab. ("tab.", "we", "us"). By creating an account or using the tab. app or website (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
You must be at least 18 years old to use tab.
1. What tab. is — and what it is not
tab. is a social tool that lets users record and share claims that another person owes them money ("Tabs"), and to settle those claims using third-party payment apps.
- A Tab is a claim made by one user, not a verified fact, court judgment, or
legal determination of debt. Every Tab is presented as *"[Filer] says [Person] owes $X."*
- tab. is not a debt collector, collection agency, lender, bank, money
transmitter, escrow service, credit bureau, or background-check provider.
- tab. does not verify, guarantee, or take a position on whether any claimed
debt is real, owed, or accurate. We are a neutral platform for user content.
- tab. does not process, hold, or transfer funds. Payments happen entirely
through third-party services (e.g., Venmo, Cash App) that you choose to use, subject to their terms.
2. Your responsibilities when filing a Tab
When you file or confirm a Tab, you represent and warrant that:
- The claim is truthful, accurate, and made in good faith, and you have a
genuine, good-faith basis to believe the money is owed to you.
- You have evidence reasonably supporting the claim and the right to share it.
- You are filing for a legitimate personal purpose — not to harass,
threaten, coerce, extort, defame, stalk, or retaliate against anyone.
- You are not a debt collector collecting on behalf of a third party, and
you are not using tab. to perform third-party debt collection.
- You have the legal right to provide any personal information you enter about
another person, and your doing so does not violate their rights or any law.
You are solely responsible for the content of your Tabs and for any consequences of filing them, including any claims of defamation, invasion of privacy, or harassment. tab. is not responsible for user-generated content.
3. Prohibited uses
You may not use tab. to:
- Post false, misleading, defamatory, or bad-faith claims.
- Harass, threaten, intimidate, dox, stalk, or shame any person.
- Collect a debt as, or on behalf of, a third party (no third-party/agency
collection).
- Publish a Tab as a threat ("pay or I'll post this publicly") in a coercive or
extortionate manner.
- Post another person's sensitive personal information (government IDs, financial
account numbers, exact home address, etc.).
- Upload unlawful, infringing, hateful, or sexually explicit content.
- Send unsolicited messages, or send SMS/notifications to anyone who has not
consented to receive them.
- Scrape, resell, or build a competing database from Service content.
Violating these Terms may result in content removal, account suspension or termination, and referral to law enforcement.
4. Consent, notice, and the rights of people named in a Tab
- When you file a Tab against someone, you authorize tab. to **notify that
person** (in-app if they are a user) and to display the claim consistent with our product (a private response window, then potential public listing if unresolved).
- SMS/text reminders are sent only with consent. We do not auto-text people
who have not opted in to messages from tab.
- Any person named in a Tab — whether or not they are a registered user — may
dispute the claim and may request review or removal of content about them through the in-app "This is about me" flow or by emailing hello@thetab.io. We will review such requests promptly and may remove or restrict content at our discretion.
- We honor applicable data-subject rights (see the Privacy Policy), including
access, correction, and deletion requests.
5. Content moderation and takedowns
We may, at our sole discretion and without notice, review, remove, or restrict any content; suspend or terminate any account; and cooperate with law enforcement. We provide tools to report content and block users. Report abuse or request a takedown at hello@thetab.io.
6. tab. Pro (subscriptions)
tab. Pro is an auto-renewing subscription sold through the Apple App Store. Pricing, billing, and renewal are handled by Apple and disclosed at purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. Except where required by law or Apple policy, payments are non-refundable.
7. License and intellectual property
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes. You retain ownership of content you submit but grant tab. a worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, and distribute it as needed to operate the Service. "tab." and our logos are our trademarks.
8. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, express or implied. We do not warrant that any claim, rating, or piece of user content is accurate, current, or lawful. We are not responsible for the conduct of any user or for any payment made or not made through third-party apps.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, tab. AND ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, REPUTATION, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE OR FROM ANY USER CONTENT. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) US $100.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless tab. from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) content you submit (including any claim that it is defamatory or violates privacy); (b) your violation of these Terms or any law; or (c) your violation of any third party's rights.
11. Dispute resolution; arbitration; class-action waiver
Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights, including your right to bring a lawsuit in court.
Informal resolution first. Most disputes can be resolved without formal proceedings. Before starting an arbitration, you agree to first email us at hello@thetab.io with a short description of the dispute and your contact information, and to give us 30 days to resolve it informally.
If we can't resolve it, any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and tab. arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, and not in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. You and tab. each waive the right to a jury trial and the right to participate in a class, collective, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims.
Arbitration administration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, and may be conducted by telephone, video, or written submissions where permitted. The arbitrator's award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
30-day right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration and class-waiver agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing hello@thetab.io from your account email with the statement "I opt out of arbitration." Opting out has no effect on any other part of these Terms.
Governing law. These Terms and any dispute are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration provisions. If any portion of this Section 11 is found unenforceable, the remainder will remain in effect, except that if the class-waiver is found unenforceable, this entire Section 11 will be void.
12. Changes; termination
We may modify these Terms or the Service at any time; material changes will be posted with a new "Last updated" date. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time.
13. Contact
For anything — general questions, abuse reports, takedowns, and legal or removal requests — email hello@thetab.io.
