The problem

$27T

Stablecoin volume in 2025

Yet every payment product that lets a business accept stablecoins still puts a custodian in the path of the funds. Founders trade self-custody for a webhook.

The shape of the fix

  • Custody stays with the user. Keys live in buyer and seller wallets, never on our servers.
  • Relayer pays the gas. Buyers never need a native token to spend a stablecoin.
  • Contracts stay small. Each router is under 250 lines of Solidity. Short enough to read end to end before integrating.
  • Hosted checkout on top. A REST API and webhooks so a normal backend ships in an afternoon.

What we built

TabRouter

EIP-712 single payments. Buyer signs, relayer submits, router settles.

TabBotRouter

Executor-driven P2P sends and campaign grants. Allowlist-gated.

TabEscrowRouter

Escrow keyed on a Tab handle. Funds release the moment the recipient claims.

TabSubscriptionRouter

On-chain recurring billing. Cancel anytime from the dashboard.

All four are immutable. Above them sits a REST API, signed webhooks, and a hosted checkout.

Why this wins

A user can stop using Tab tomorrow and their wallet still works.

Every other “non-custodial” payment product still sits on funds in transit. We don't. They hold the keys. We just move the money.

Where we are

BaseBSCSolanaInkCeloTempo (planned)
  • · Four routers shipped, full Foundry coverage
  • · Third-party audit in progress
  • · Testnet integrations green end to end
  • · Mainnet rollout per chain

What we want

  • Distribution. Merchants already taking crypto who want a non-custodial checkout.
  • Integration. Wallets, exchanges, and L2s that want Tab as a default payment rail.
  • Seed capital. To finish the mainnet rollout and ship the fiat off-ramp.
