Payment Processing Solutions
Electronic payment processing for catering companies, from event deposits and final invoices to onsite service, built around how catering is booked and billed. Apply with confidence.
Why Choose Daystar for Catering Payment Processing
Catering businesses take deposits months ahead, bill large final invoices after the event, and sometimes collect onsite. That gap between payment and service is why some processors hold funds or add reserves. As a high risk merchant account provider with 20 acquiring banks, Daystar matches caterers with banks that understand event-based billing.
We make electronic payments simpler for weddings, corporate lunches, and private events: deposits by card or ACH, balances by invoice link, and tips or add-ons onsite. Signed event contracts and clear cancellation terms help protect you from disputes. There are no long-term contracts.

Credit Card Processing
Accept credit cards for event deposits, final balances, and last-minute additions. Processing limits are set for large catering tickets such as weddings and corporate galas, so a big deposit does not look like unusual activity and trigger a hold on your account. Split payments between hosts are supported as well.
Payment Gateways
Catering Payment Gateways
Send clients secure payment links from your invoices or connect your booking software to a payment gateway. Clients can pay deposits and balances online, and tokenized cards let you charge agreed balances or overages on the event date with authorization on file. Automatic receipts keep clients and your office on the same page.

Mobile Payment Apps
Take payments onsite with mobile card readers at the event, whether it is a food truck service, a festival booth, or collecting a final balance from the host. Tips and add-on services can be captured on the spot with a digital receipt. Readers work over Wi-Fi or cellular data at most venues.
ACH and E-Checks
Catering
ACH & E-Checks
Corporate clients, schools, and nonprofits often prefer paying catering invoices by bank transfer. ACH and eCheck processing lowers your cost on large orders and gives accounting departments a payment method that fits their procurement process. Payments can be matched to each event invoice for easier reconciliation.
Subscription Billing
Catering
Subscription Billing
Recurring billing fits meal-prep programs, weekly office lunch contracts, and standing orders for corporate cafeterias or schools. Automatic charges keep payments on schedule and reduce the invoicing work behind repeat clients. Clients can change or pause standing orders, and each charge comes with a receipt for their records.
Sell Internationally
Catering
International Sales
Destination weddings and international corporate clients can pay in their own currency with multi-currency processing. That reduces declines and exchange confusion for clients booking events from abroad. Deposits for venue tastings and menu planning can be collected in the same currency, keeping the client’s statement simple and easy to reconcile after the event.
