Tag Agency of Pinellas

What Tag Agency of Pinellas does

Tag Agency of Pinellas (TAP), operating as Tag Agency Professionals, Inc., is a St. Petersburg, Florida-based B2B services firm that provides same-day title and tag processing exclusively for automotive dealerships and adjacent automotive businesses. The company is explicitly not open to the general public; all resources are dedicated to dealers and industry professionals. Its core product set includes original title processing and transfers, certified "Fast" expedited titles, lien assignments and notices of lien, temporary tags and dealer plates, repossession titles, derelict certificates, duplicate titles, and towing/storage liens. Customers span franchise dealers (primary), independent dealers, mobile home, vessel, RV, motorcycle, and salvage dealers, financial institutions, fleet operators, and tow operators.

Operations are conducted from a single processing facility at 3050 Scherer Dr. N., St. Petersburg, FL 33716 (Monday-Friday 8:30 AM - 5:30 PM), with UPS/FedEx overnight mail options enabling service to dealerships across Florida and other states. No proprietary technology platform, software product, mobile app, or API is disclosed; the business is staffed service work rather than software. Revenue is generated on a per-transaction basis for each title, tag, lien, or specialized document processed, with the same-day turnaround and dealer-exclusive focus positioned as the core differentiator against agencies that also serve walk-in consumers.

TAP is the lead entity in a wider affiliated group known as TAP Companies, which includes OATA, EZ DMV, Tags & Titles, and Express Tag and Title and is described as operating across 27 states. In 2025 the company acquired Tags & Titles Services (2025-04-18) and EZDMV (2025-09-10) for undisclosed consideration, signaling M&A-driven expansion of its title and DMV services platform. The company is privately held with 101-250 employees, no disclosed funding, no disclosed revenue, and no disclosed management team in the supplied data.
