Invoice financing for restaurants — cash flow through every season

Why a restaurant owner uses invoice financing

Cash conversion is everything in food service — ingredients, wages and rent don't flex even if a catering customer pays in 45 days. Invoice financing releases the cash from sent invoices immediately so you can focus on the food, not on collections.

Catering and event invoices to cash the same day

Pay ingredients and wages on time even in slow months

Lunch partnerships and corporate monthly billings financeable

No collateral — the invoice itself is the security

No contract lock-in — finance only the invoices you choose

Credit check is on the customer, not on you

Typical use cases — restaurants and catering

Catering and event service

A €12,000 event billed with a 30-day term. You get 95% tomorrow and order ingredients for the next event without a credit card.

Lunch and contract customers

Corporate monthly billings bring predictable sales but tie up cash. Finance each invoice immediately and keep ingredient orders rolling.

Opening a second location

A new opening needs a ramp-up period. Advances on existing B2B invoices fund equipment and marketing costs.

Industry pain points and how invoice financing solves them

Long B2B payment terms

Challenge: Corporate customers pay in 30–60 days, but ingredients are due on order day.

Solution: We finance the invoice immediately — up to 95% advance the same day.

Seasonal and weekly swings

Challenge: Summer terraces or Christmas events concentrate sales into a few months.

Solution: Finance peak-season invoices immediately and smooth cash flow year-round.

Front-loaded labour costs

Challenge: Wages go out monthly even if customer payments are sporadic.

Solution: Released cash secures wages and payroll taxes on time without a short-term loan.

Single large-customer risk

Challenge: One large contract customer paying late can sink a small restaurant's cash.

Solution: In a non-recourse model the credit loss sits with us — you get paid even on a default.
