GloriaFood is shutting down.
Here is your alternative.
Oracle is retiring GloriaFood on 30 April 2027 — with no replacement and no data retention afterwards. TakeAwFood is a commission-free ordering platform you can move to today, and keep the parts that mattered: your own site, your kitchen, your customers.
Why every GloriaFood restaurant needs a plan now
The entire GloriaFood product line goes dark — ordering widget, Facebook order button, FoodBooking reservations, payments and POS integrations, all on the same day.
Oracle is not migrating anyone to a new product. New sign-ups are already closed. This is a wind-down, not an upgrade.
After the deadline there is no data retention — menus, customer records and order history become permanently inaccessible. Export early.
Reported across the industry — GloriaFood served 120,000+ restaurants in 50+ countries, including the UK and across Europe.

GloriaFood shutdown — FAQ
Is GloriaFood really shutting down?
Yes. Oracle has confirmed the entire GloriaFood product line will be retired on 30 April 2027. New sign-ups are already closed and there is no replacement product coming from Oracle — this is a full wind-down.
What happens to my GloriaFood data?
Oracle has stated there is no data retention beyond 30 April 2027. Your menus, customer records, order history and delivery configuration become permanently inaccessible. Export everything early and rebuild it on a platform you own.
Is TakeAwFood a good GloriaFood alternative?
TakeAwFood does the same core job GloriaFood did — your own branded online ordering site with zero commission — and adds a live kitchen display, ESC/POS receipt printing, scheduled orders and real-time order tracking on a flat monthly subscription.
How do I migrate from GloriaFood to TakeAwFood?
Export your menu and customer data from GloriaFood while the tools still work, sign up for TakeAwFood, and rebuild your menu — we can help. You keep 100% of every order and online payments go straight into your own Stripe account.
Does TakeAwFood charge commission per order?
No. You pay a flat monthly subscription and keep 100% of every order — unlike marketplaces that take up to 30%.
When exactly does GloriaFood shut down?
GloriaFood retires on 30 April 2027. On that date the online ordering widget, the Facebook order button, FoodBooking reservations, payment processing and POS integrations all stop working together — so you need a replacement live before then.
Will my GloriaFood ordering widget keep working?
No. The ordering widget on your website, your Facebook order button and FoodBooking all stop on 30 April 2027. Swap in your own ordering site well before the deadline so you never miss an order.
Is there a free GloriaFood alternative?
GloriaFood was free with paid add-ons. TakeAwFood runs on a flat monthly subscription with 0% commission, so you keep 100% of every order instead of giving a marketplace up to 30%. Request access to see pricing.
What is the best GloriaFood replacement for a restaurant?
A good GloriaFood replacement keeps you commission-free, gives you your own branded ordering site and puts payments in your own account. TakeAwFood does all three and adds a live kitchen display, receipt printing and real-time order tracking.
Don't wait for the lights to go out
Set up your own ordering site now and keep taking orders long after GloriaFood is gone.
