Paying your suppliers more than you agreed?

Restaurant, pub and café groups take dozens of deliveries a week, and nobody has time to check every invoice line. We do: every supplier invoice against what was ordered, delivered and agreed, confirmed by an expert before you pay anything.

The free check runs in your browser: your file never leaves your computer.

Where the money goes

Small amounts nobody is paid to notice, repeated across every site and every week.

Invoices paid twice

The same delivery invoiced by email and again on paper, or re-sent after a query, and paid both times.

Prices that creep up

Core lines going up a few pence at a time with no new price list behind them, across every site.

Short deliveries and returns

Items missing or sent back, with the credit note never raised or never deducted.

Same product, different prices

One site paying more than another for the same item from the same or another supplier.

How it works

  1. Free check, one minute. Drop in your supplier invoice export. It looks for duplicate payments in your browser and shows how you compare.
  2. Full review, free to run. Upload invoices, orders, deliveries and contracts. Our checks run on every line, then an expert confirms each finding.
  3. You decide. You see the confirmed total first. Pay 20% of it to unlock every finding, the evidence and draft letters, or walk away and pay nothing.

Why owners trust it

  • Every finding confirmed by an expert before you are asked to pay.
  • If a supplier shows a finding was wrong, we refund the fee for it.
  • Your records are covered by a data processing agreement and deleted on a fixed schedule.
  • Run by Hassam Mir, with over ten years in commercial, procurement and contract roles.

Questions

Will my suppliers know?

No. We work only from your records. You decide whether and how to raise anything with a supplier, and we give you the evidence and draft letters if you do.

Which systems do you work with?

Any accounting or purchasing system that exports supplier invoices to CSV or Excel, including Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and most hospitality procurement platforms.

We have several sites. Is that a problem?

No, it helps. Comparing what each site pays for the same item is one of the checks, and multi-site groups usually have more to find.

What does it cost?

The free check and the full review cost nothing. If we confirm findings you see the total first, then pay 20% of the confirmed value (within 7 days) to unlock the detail. If nothing is confirmed, there is nothing to pay.
