If you're a restauranteur, and you want to expand, or open a new location, you can finance it via a line of credit or loan from a bank at current high interest rates, or from private investors looking for an ownership stake, or now you can turn to InKind.
How it works:
You own a restaurant and need $200K in financing. InKind gives you $200K cash in exchange for $400K in dining credits. InKind then "sells" those food credits to it's app users. If somebody spends $100 worth of InKind dollars at a restaurant, InKind draws down $100 worth of food credits from that restaurant, and gives the user back 20% of what they spent, or an occasional coupon or gift card discount.
This works InKind because they spent only $50 on the food. They give back 20% in InKind dollars that expire, so after breakage maybe that's $15. That still leaves another $35 of margin for others discounts and promotions.
For the restaurant, it's a no-brainer. Food cost is typically 20-25%, so if they sell food in advance for 50% off, they get the cash flow and have still more than covered that cost. I'm also guessing that InKind-paid tabs run higher than average, so maybe they sell more high-margin alchohol and deserts.
This is why you can't use InKind dollars on tips. There is no margin on tips.
This is also why restaurants come and go from InKind. It's not that InKind is failing. It's that it's working, and their users are spending all the credits. The restaurant won't reappear until they need to expand again.

Even if you hit right at $100, it still makes a meal $70 after a 20% tip. Used the last $50/100 for a nice date night out at a nice restaurant. Family budget doesn't allow for that very often, so not sure I'll use this one, but it's always nice to have options.
The $5 off $10 they offered recently was great.
Not as good as the $30 off $60 a few days ago. Hard to order $100 worth of food for a single meal.
