Possible uses

Business expenses to describe

01

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.

A few things to know

About this referral service

Information sharing and referral payments

We may sell the business and contact details in your application to up to five funding partners for follow-up about financing. Our payment is for the referral rather than a funded outcome, and applying does not incur a fee from this service.

Approval and available terms

We cannot promise approval, a financing amount or particular terms from an application. Those decisions belong to the provider after its own review.

Provider timing

Include the real payment deadline in the request without assuming it will be met. Availability follows the provider’s decision and completion of its requirements.

Contact consent and mobile verification

Before sending your details, check the consent wording for calls, texts and information sharing. The code sent to your mobile is used to confirm access to that number.
