⏳ GloriaFood end of life: April 30, 2027 · free migration slots open
GloriaFood migration guide

GloriaFood is shutting down.
Move your menu before April 30, 2027.

Every GloriaFood restaurant needs a new ordering home within the next months - and Oracle has said there is no direct replacement. PlatePoint takes your ordering over with a flat monthly fee, zero commission, and a done-for-you menu migration in about 3 days.

"GloriaFood Service Update: GloriaFood will reach end of life on April 30, 2027. We remain committed to supporting existing customers through this date. While Oracle does not offer a direct replacement for GloriaFood products and services..." - gloriafood.com homepage announcement, retrieved September 2026

What that means for your restaurant

Your ordering dies on a fixed date

This is not a pivot or a rebrand - the service itself ends. Every QR code, menu page and takeaway link built on GloriaFood stops working on April 30, 2027.

No like-for-like successor

The announcement states Oracle offers no direct replacement. There is no export path that carries your setup to a successor product, because there isn't one.

Every GloriaFood venue migrates at once

Thousands of venues will be rebuilding menus and reprinting QR codes in the same months. Moving early means personal setup attention instead of a queue.

Your migration checklist (do this regardless of where you go)

  1. Export your menu now. Dishes, prices, descriptions, photos and categories. Whatever platform you choose next, this list is the raw material.
  2. Note your takeaway links. Any GloriaFood ordering links printed on flyers, menus or social bios will die with the service - list where they appear so you can replace them.
  3. Reprint QR codes with the new system. Old QR codes encode GloriaFood URLs and cannot be redirected. Budget for new table stickers.
  4. Check your deposit and booking data. Export anything you need for records before the platform locks or clears it.
  5. Pick a flat-fee platform. You are leaving a free tool - do not walk into per-order or per-cover fees. A flat subscription is the only cost that stays flat when you get busy.

GloriaFood module prices as published on gloriafood.com/pricing in September 2026 and may change.

PlatePoint takes your ordering over - one flat price

Dine-in QR ordering

Guests scan the table, order from their phone, and your kitchen screen shows every item live - with allergen labels printed on every ticket.

Takeaway & pickup built in

Replace GloriaFood's core takeaway flow: guests preorder with pickup time slots on your own ordering page. No commission per order, ever.

Bookings with deposit tracking

Table bookings with a no-show status flow - GloriaFood charged $0.50 per accepted booking guest for deposits; PlatePoint includes booking deposits in the subscription.

Allergen labels on every ticket

Dish-level allergen and dietary tagging, visible to guests and printed for the kitchen. Most ordering platforms still have nothing here.

Tax engine & five languages

Inclusive or exclusive tax per your country's rules, and a guest menu in English, Spanish, French, Hindi and Arabic.

Kitchen display & printing included

Live kitchen board with sound, dispatch signals and ESC/POS ticket printing - not a paid add-on.

Questions restaurant owners ask

Is GloriaFood really shutting down?

Yes - their own homepage carries the end-of-life announcement for April 30, 2027, and states Oracle offers no direct replacement. The quote above is verbatim.

Will my menu transfer automatically?

No platform can import GloriaFood's setup directly. On PlatePoint you send the menu list and we rebuild it - dishes, prices, photos, allergen notes - in about 3 days.

Do I need new QR codes?

Yes, whatever you choose next: old codes point at GloriaFood URLs and cannot be redirected. New table stickers are part of PlatePoint setup.

Do my customers need an app?

No. Scan, browse, order in the phone browser. Takeaway guests use your own ordering page with pickup time slots.

What does it cost to try?

A 7-day free trial with the menu built for you - no card, no contract. If it is not a fit, you have lost nothing.

Why a flat fee instead of free?

Because free tools monetise the modules you actually need - POS, payments, deposits, kitchen screen. A flat fee is the whole invoice, and it never grows when you get busy.
