What Documents Do I Need to Book Events?

Here are the paperwork requirements to book events with Roaming Hunger. You may upload all documents to the Terms & Documents section of your Dashboard or email them to vendors@roaminghunger.com.

Here's a short list of what we need from you. Click a link to jump to that section of the article:

1. Certificate of Insurance (COI) (← please read carefully)
2. Annual Health Permit (vending only)
3. Payment Information

Perks of Completing Your Paperwork

• You are more likely to get booked. We promise our clients that we're sending insured and permitted vendors to their event, so 85% of all bookings go to vendors who have completed their paperwork upfront.
• Get paid on time. To stay in compliance with the IRS, we need your tax information before we can pay you.
• Enhance your profile. Completing your paperwork will increase your site ranking, activate a photo gallery on your profile (instead of one profile photo), and give you this nice, blue Verified badge:

Step 1: Verify Your Documents

Certificate of Insurance (COI)

Required for all events. Please read all of our COI requirements carefully before uploading:

1. It must have a Commercial General Liability Policy with the following coverages:
   1. $1 million each occurrence
   2. $2 million general aggregate
2. That policy must be active, not expired.
3. The COI must include an additional insured endorsement for "Roaming Hunger, LLC, including all related entities, as their interest may appear."
4. The Certificate Holder must be Roaming Hunger, LLC with our full, correct address:
   1. 1001 Gayley Ave, Ste 24220
      FIRST FLOOR
      Los Angeles, CA 90024

Your Annual Health Permit

Roaming Hunger only requires a valid health permit at vending events that we are managing. This permit is proof that the Health Department has inspected and approved your business for operation.

We will accept a photo or scan of your certificate or sticker. Please make sure the expiration date is clearly visible. We cannot accept food handlers permits or business licenses for this category.

Step 2: Upload Your Documents

Update your documents on your Dashboard under Terms & Documents.

Click/tap each field to upload files to their categories. When the field turns yellow, you have successfully submitted your document. Each document will remain yellow until Roaming Hunger reviews it. (This may take 1-2 business days.)

NOTE: The W-9 upload option will be going away. Log all tax information on your Payment Details page instead.

You will know your documents' status by their color. Green means "Approved," and Red can mean "Rejected" or "Expired." If your document has been rejected, check your email for an explanation.

If you prefer to fax your documents to us, the Roaming Hunger fax number is (888) 392-5446.

Step 3: Set Up Your Payment Account

Get paid for events by setting up your payment account on the Payment Details page of your Roaming Hunger Dashboard. Follow the steps until you reach 4: Done.
