Terms & Conditions

1. About CaterCompare

CaterCompare (www.catercompare.co.uk) is a price comparison service for commercial catering equipment in the United Kingdom. We compare prices from multiple third-party suppliers to help buyers find the best deals. By using this website, you agree to these terms and conditions.

2. Price Information

All prices displayed on CaterCompare are sourced from third-party supplier websites in real time. Prices are shown ex-VAT unless otherwise stated. While we make every effort to ensure accuracy, CaterCompare does not guarantee that prices are correct, current, or available. Prices can change at any time and may differ from what is shown when you visit the supplier's website. Always confirm the final price directly with the supplier before making a purchase.

Prices marked as "Confirmed" are fetched directly from the supplier's website at the time of your search. Prices marked as "Estimated" are sourced from third-party data and may be less accurate.

3. Affiliate Links & Commission

CaterCompare may earn a commission when you click through to a supplier's website and make a purchase. This is through affiliate partnerships (such as Awin) and does not affect the price you pay. Commission relationships do not influence the order in which results are displayed — results are sorted by price, cheapest first.

4. No Contractual Relationship

CaterCompare is a comparison service only. We do not sell, supply, deliver, or install any equipment. Any purchase you make is between you and the supplier. CaterCompare is not a party to any transaction and accepts no responsibility for the quality, safety, legality, or delivery of any products purchased through links on our site.

5. Third-Party Websites

CaterCompare contains links to third-party supplier websites. We have no control over the content, availability, or practices of these websites. Clicking a "View Deal" link takes you to an external website governed by its own terms and conditions. We recommend reviewing the supplier's terms before making a purchase.

6. Product Information

Product specifications, descriptions, and images displayed on CaterCompare are sourced from manufacturer data. While we endeavour to keep this information accurate and up to date, we do not warrant its completeness or accuracy. Always verify specifications with the manufacturer or supplier before purchasing.

7. Limitation of Liability

CaterCompare is provided "as is" without any warranties, express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by law, CaterCompare shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential losses arising from the use of this website, including but not limited to losses arising from inaccurate pricing information, unavailability of products, or actions taken by third-party suppliers.

8. Intellectual Property

The CaterCompare name, logo, design, and original content are the property of CaterCompare. Product names, brand names, and trademarks belong to their respective manufacturers. You may not reproduce, distribute, or use any content from this website without permission.
