Business Diner Tools:
FOR Restaurants
Maximize Check Size & Increase Midweek Sales
Our business dining program provides a low maintenance, high impact method for attracting business diners and growing your overall sales.
Business dining is a $245B industry – one of the largest corporate expense categories. Yet restaurants often overlook this massive opportunity spanning travel meals, catering, private events, and corporate gifting. Dinova helps you capture this untapped market.
Our corporate dining program provides a B2B marketing solution that puts you behind corporate firewalls and helps you reach millions of business diners, including road warriors, event planners, travel managers, and more.

Dine Mid-Week
Our restaurants typically experience a sales increase of 1-3x from our business diners in the first year. Contact us to learn about the business dining spend in your market.
- Our business diners pay full price at your restaurant
On average, they spend ~50% more than regular consumers. - We analyze their corporate card data
Expenses are automatically matched to your restaurant(s). No POS integrations, staff training, or operational requirements. - You pay a loyalty rebate on transactions from our diners
Increased spend from our diners balances the rebate, which is a small percentage of the total check.
Participating Corporations
Fortune 1000 companies, small to medium-sized businesses, and government agencies like the Department of Defense participate in the dining program. They drive compliance for the program, which results in more business for your restaurant.
Participating Restaurants
Our business diners use a variety of restaurants from national chains to local independents, quick-service to fine dining, low to high price points, and everything in between. They look for:
- Meals from out-of-town business travelers or to wine-and-dine clients
- Private parties and department lunches
- Food-based gifts for coworkers or clients
- Catering for offsite parties and events
- Take out that is sent to the office or remote worker
Next Steps
There is no cost to join. It is a pay-for-performance model: a loyalty rebate is collected on all transactions from our business diners. The rebate rewards our participating corporations.

When and how am I billed?
We provide you with all the itemized transaction data via a Monthly Activity Report (MAR). The MAR provides you with all the transaction details and it also serves as your invoice. The MAR is received at the end of the month and includes the previous month’s transactions.
