01
You already run the labor, the food cost, the P&L.
02
The only thing you don't own is the name over the door.
03
We fund the operators the banks call too risky and the guests already trust.
By the numbers
$150M
Funded to hospitality operators who couldn't get a yes from a bank.
24 hrs
Average time from your initial funding request to a funding quote.
2-10
Days and average time from application to funding.
Because a lease window won't wait 90 days for a bank.

Two roads to your own front door. Only one respects the clock.

The years on payroll were the training, not the ceiling

01You built the menu.
02You trained the line.
03You made the numbers work.
04Now do it under your own name.

Straight answers, before you ask.

Do I need a signed lease first?
No — get pre-approved first, then negotiate from a position of strength. Walking into a space with funding lined up changes every conversation you'll have with a landlord.
Do I need collateral?
No personal collateral is required, ever. Our funding is 100% non-collateralized and unsecured. Access funds without putting your personal assets at risk.
What if I've never owned before?
Operating experience counts. Seven in ten of our borrowers are first-time owners.
What are the credit requirements for funding?
The minimum requirement for funding is 680+ credit. If you don't meet the credit requirement but have access to a partner or someone who does and is willing to apply for you, that's also an option. If not, please call us at 1-800-219-1706 to request a callback to discuss all alternative options.
Do I have to give up equity or a percentage of my profits?
No — Dining Boost offers 100% Non-dilutive funding. No requirements to give up ownership or a percentage of your restaurant or catering profits in exchange for funding.
How long does the funding take?
Receive a funding quote in 24 hours, with funding in as little as 2-10 days.

Your name over the door. We help you get there.
