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.
1-2 days
Average time from your initial funding request to a funding quote.

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 contact us at 929-299-7105 for an alternative option.
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 1-2 days, with funding in as little as 2-10 days.

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