Last Updated: June 23, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Grinbuck Technologies Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada ("Grinbuck," "we," "us," or "our"), governing your access to and use of tabMonk, including all features, content, and functionality available at tabmonk.com (collectively, the "Service").
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.
1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
tabMonk is a business operations platform designed to assist Canadian small businesses, freelancers, sole proprietors, and landlords with day-to-day financial administration and compliance tracking.
The Service provides:
- (a) Expense tracking with CRA-mapped categories and receipt image storage;
- (b) Invoice and quotation creation, PDF generation, and email delivery to clients;
- (c) Client management including contact information storage;
- (d) Automated tracking and display of estimated filing deadline dates for BC corporations, including BC Annual Returns, corporate income tax (T2) deadlines, and GST/HST and BC PST filing deadlines;
- (e) Email reminders prior to estimated deadline dates and invoice due dates (available to Pro subscribers only);
- (f) A business health dashboard summarizing financial and compliance status.
Compliance deadline tracking is currently available for BC-registered corporations only. Expense tracking, invoicing, and client management are available to all users regardless of province or entity type.
2. NOT PROFESSIONAL ADVICE — CRITICAL DISCLAIMER
2.1 THE SERVICE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL, TAX, ACCOUNTING, OR FINANCIAL ADVICE OF ANY KIND. NOTHING IN THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS PROFESSIONAL ADVICE.
2.2 tabMonk is a software tool that computes estimated deadline dates based on general rules and the information you input. It is NOT a substitute for advice from a qualified lawyer, accountant, tax professional, or other regulated professional.
2.3 FILING DEADLINES MAY VARY. Deadlines displayed in the Service are estimates only. Actual deadlines may differ based on your corporation's specific circumstances, fiscal year, incorporation type, CRA account status, applicable legislation, regulatory changes, and other factors that the Service cannot assess or account for. Grinbuck makes no representation or warranty that any deadline displayed is accurate, complete, or current.
2.4 YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE for ensuring you meet all filing obligations required by applicable law. Neither Grinbuck nor the Service assumes any responsibility for missed deadlines, late filing penalties, interest charges, corporate dissolution, or any other consequence arising from your reliance on information provided by the Service.
2.5 CCPC NOTE. The Service displays T2 corporate income tax payment deadlines based on a 2-month rule after fiscal year end. Canadian-Controlled Private Corporations (CCPCs) may qualify for a 3-month payment deadline. The Service cannot determine your CCPC status. You must confirm your applicable deadline with a qualified accountant.
2.6 GST/HST AND PST NOTE. Tax deadlines are computed based on the reporting period and registration information you provide. Errors in that information will produce incorrect deadline estimates. You are responsible for verifying all deadline and tax information independently.
2.7 EXPENSE AND INVOICE DATA. The Service provides tools for recording and organizing financial information. It does not constitute bookkeeping, accounting, or tax preparation services. You are responsible for the accuracy of all data you enter and for ensuring your records comply with CRA requirements.
3. ELIGIBILITY AND ACCOUNT REGISTRATION
3.1 You must be at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts to use the Service.

3.4 You may register and manage multiple businesses under one account, subject to the limits of your subscription plan.
3.5 Grinbuck reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account if any information provided is found to be inaccurate, false, or misleading.
