What this changes

The practical benefit for your work

  • A received first amount can help purchase ingredients for the agreed menu.
  • A separate balance request lets the host see what remains due after the service.

Next step

Choose the right payment request

  • Agree on the service and amount with your customer.
  • Send a payment request by SMS or email at the agreed time.
  • Check the confirmed payment; request any later balance separately.

Examples for this activity

  • A dinner for an agreed number of guests includes shopping, cooking and service.
  • The host accepts an extra course and receives a separate request.

Payment steps

Agree on menu, covers, venue and price. Request a first amount if your terms provide for it. Check confirmed payment and request the agreed balance or extra separately.

A question before you start

Is a first payment required for every dinner?

No. The chef and host agree on timing for each service.

A useful distinction

Choose the right next step

The chef decides menu changes; PayLinker records the payment requests, not the kitchen plan. See the relevant PayLinker flow.
