Costs to consider when preparing a request
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.
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.

Think through the timing of the work
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.

Questions about our role
How our referral service operates
How are introductions to providers handled?
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.
Where do offer conditions come from?
We cannot promise approval, a financing amount or particular terms from an application. Those decisions belong to the provider after its own review.
What determines the time needed for review?
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.
What should I expect at the verification step?
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.
