Planned purchases

Espresso equipment

A new espresso machine may also require a grinder, water treatment and installation. Check the full setup cost and the time the counter would be out of service.

02

Seasonal stock

Coffee, milk alternatives and takeaway supplies can sell at different rates through the year. Base the order on recent use and the trading period ahead, especially before local events or holidays.

03

Service counter

An extra counter or display refrigerator can change how orders move through the café. Include fitting work and electrical requirements alongside the equipment quote.

Cafés · funding preparation

Look at when money comes in and goes out

Compare regular weekday sales with weekend or event-driven trade. The busiest hour is useful context, but the whole trading month matters when considering a repayment schedule.

Understand our role

Understand the service before applying

How does the referral service get paid?

Your submitted business and contact information may be sold to as many as five funding partners for follow-up. Partners pay us for the referral regardless of its funding outcome, and we do not charge you to apply.

How are funding terms set?

Sending the form does not guarantee an offer or approval. Funding partners assess the business against their own requirements and set the conditions of any financing.

How long can a review take?

A supplier deadline does not establish how quickly a funding partner can respond. Confirm the provider’s process before relying on financing for a payment.

What contact permission am I giving?

Check how your information will be used and who may contact you before you send the form. The SMS code verifies your number; the separate consent text describes communications.
