Hog roast and spit roast caterers cook whole roasts on site for weddings, birthdays, work events, fairs and festivals, often with sides, rolls and serving staff. Private events are usually booked with a deposit to hold the date, with the balance due before the day because the caterer buys the meat in advance. At fairs and festivals they also sell rolls to the public, one quick payment at a time. A payments app that handles deposits, balances and busy event-day sales can win hog roast caterers, and every client and customer who pays them sees your app.

Take deposits and balances by link
A deposit link secures the date, and a balance link sent a week or two before the event means the caterer is paid before buying the meat.

Sell fast at fairs and festivals
A QR code on the counter lets customers pay for a roll in seconds, so the queue keeps moving and the caterer carries less cash.
Grow through events and food businesses
Hog roast caterers work alongside other caterers, food trucks and mobile bars at the same weddings and festivals. When those businesses take payments through your app, each caterer can bring more of them onto it.
