Why it matters
How minimum spend affects a service
Minimum-spend rules let a venue protect scarce or premium inventory without necessarily charging the full amount upfront. The guest should see the commitment and applicable terms before confirming, and the venue decides when the rule applies.
Example
In practice
A premium table can carry a €200 minimum spend. The guest secures the reservation under that condition and the venue compares the final spend with the agreed minimum according to its policy.
