Suspended coffee. Caffe sospeso. Pin a cup. Pay it forward. Cafea în așteptare (RO), Висящо кафе (BG)
A good deed that has more than one version – random generosity meets cozy coffee shop and friendly customers or small charity gesture flows in local tribes.
A caffè sospeso (Italian: suspended coffee) or caffè pagato (paid coffee) is a cup of coffee paid for in advance as an anonymous act of charity. The tradition began in the working-class cafés of Naples, where someone who had experienced good luck would order a sospeso, paying the price of two coffees but receiving and consuming only one. A poor person enquiring later whether there was a sospeso available would then be served a coffee for free.

As a local initiative and with the support of getlokal.ro, in less than two weeks after the idea was first suggested, 35 places from 10 cities in Romania joined the movement and implemented the suspended coffee idea.
Some owners chose the gamification idea of paying for a coffee for someone else, by encouraging customers to leave notes with good thoughts for those who would claim the coffee. Others preferred the charity idea and found transparent mechanisms for giving the products that were left “suspended” directly to the people in need.
From the tradition in Southern Italy, passing through Ukraine and Bulgaria and arriving in Romania, the simplicity of the idea generated more and more random acts of generosity.

After very good feedback from the Romanian cafe owners and some international requests for the logo that getlokal.ro created, we decided to share more, in the spirit of the suspended coffee movement.
That is how suspendedcoffeeglobal.com appeared – a site that any owner, from anywhere in the world can use to list his/her place and download stickers and posters that help them communicate the concept to their customers. And if you want to share information with others involved in the movement, you can connect & share – all the relevant links are available.
Let the good deeds roll!
