The quoting app for caterers

Event date, guest count, and menu — that's what you need to quote most catering jobs. Send a professional quote fast, get it signed, and have the event locked in before the client starts calling competitors. When the guest count changes, a change order keeps the food order and the invoice in sync.

No subscriptions. Just 1% on signed quotes. Everything else is free — forever.

Why Catering pros use QuoteMe

The contractor who quotes first wins the job. QuoteMe is built to make sure that's you.

Quote from guest count and menu, fast

Most catering quotes come down to per-head pricing and what's included. Build your menus into templates and send a polished quote in minutes from the first call.

Digital signatures confirm the booking

A signed catering agreement means the client is committed and the date is real. Stop chasing follow-ups on events that were never actually confirmed.

Change orders for menu changes and additions

Guest count goes up, or they want a dessert table added. Send a change order before you order additional food, not after you're stuck with the cost.

Invoice directly from the confirmed quote

When the event is done, generate the invoice from the original signed quote. Everything is documented, the math is already done, and deposits you've collected are already on the record.

Everything you need to run your business

From creating quotes to collecting payment, QuoteMe handles the entire workflow so you can focus on the work that matters.

Catering quoting questions

Can I quote a catering job from guest count and menu alone?
Yes. Most catering jobs price out from headcount, the menu, and the event date. Send a professional catering quote from your phone after the first conversation. If the guest count changes or they add a station, you send a signed change order before you order more food.
How do caterers use QuoteMe to lock in events?
Clients comparing caterers usually go with the first clear, professional quote that they can actually sign. QuoteMe lets you build a quote from a saved menu template in under two minutes and get it signed on the spot, before they keep shopping.
Can I collect a deposit on a catering quote?
Yes. Put the deposit on the quote so it's part of what they sign, not a surprise later. When the event is done, generate the invoice from that same signed quote — the deposit is already documented.
What if the guest count changes after they sign?
It almost always does. Rather than arguing about the final invoice after the event, send a signed change order as soon as the number moves. The client sees the new total, you order the right amount of food, and you get paid for the actual headcount.
Is there a monthly fee for catering businesses?
No. QuoteMe has no subscription and no monthly fee. You pay a flat 1% only when a quote gets signed, and recurring quotes are free after the first occurrence. Creating quotes, scheduling jobs, and sending invoices is free, so there is no risk to get started.
