Victorian customers - Have you claimed your $5K outdoor dining grant?

As a result of COVID-19 restrictions, the Victorian government is offering business grants to recover from the economic impact. After a long period of uncertainty and limits on trading, we want to make sure all our customers can get their hands on this grant. 

Hospitality businesses can now apply for the Outdoor Eating and Entertainment Package valued at $5,000. $58M has been set aside for this grant, and it will go towards supporting nearly 12,000 Victorian businesses get back on their feet. 

A number of our customers have already taken advantage of this offer and unlike other government grants, it's quick and simple to apply. If you have multiple premises, you can also make separate $5K applications for each venue. But be quick, applications close by 11 December 2020, or until the budget is exhausted

Essentially, if you're a hospitality business that's offering outdoor dining and all your business paperwork is up to date then you're entitled to $5K.
