GloriaFood says on its English website that the service will reach end of life on April 30, 2027. Oracle lists March 31, 2027 for full end of service, so plan for the earlier date. Check current notices and the terms for your account when planning a switch.
This comparison looks at GloriaFood online ordering and the Fleksa restaurant platform, including websites, ordering and other features. Check the features and terms available for your location.
Widget vs platform — the real difference
GloriaFood offers online ordering. Fleksa offers restaurant websites and online ordering. Compare how each fits your existing website and workflow.
Ask Fleksa which domain, menu management, reservations, loyalty, marketing and POS options are available for your location and plan.
For a single-location independent that already had a great WordPress site, the widget model was fine. For everyone else — multi-location brands, growing independents, anyone who wanted to actually own their customer relationship — it was always a workaround. The Oracle shutdown is forcing that decision into the open.
Pricing and commissions
Compare current offers for your market and the features you need. Include platform fees, pickup and delivery commissions, payment processing and any additional costs.
Flex: 10% of eligible website and Google orders plus $0.50 per reservation, minimum $49/month. Fix: $199/month with 0% Fleksa commission. Payment processing, hardware and extras cost separately; applicable sales tax is extra. Explore Fleksa.
Branded domain support
Check how each provider handles your domain, checkout, receipts and confirmation emails.
Ask GloriaFood which customer-facing pages use your domain and which use a provider domain.
Ask Fleksa which pages can use your domain, how it is connected, and which address sends receipts and confirmations.
For multiple locations, ask how domains, menus, branding and customer data can be managed across locations.
POS integration
Ask both providers how orders reach the POS and kitchen, and which devices and integrations are available for your business.
Ask Fleksa how online and in-house orders appear, which devices are supported, and how delivery fees, menus, discounts and printers are configured for your plan.
Marketing tools
Ask GloriaFood which promotions, customer data and marketing tools are available for your account.
Ask Fleksa which customer, segmentation, campaign and loyalty features are available for your location and plan, including any associated fees.

White-label and multi-location
Compare the needs of each location and any agency clients.
If you use GloriaFood for multiple clients or locations, ask the provider how the announced end of service affects your agreement.
Ask Fleksa about partner options, location management and migration support, including whether bulk tools are available for your setup.
Migration path from GloriaFood
Plan your switch in good time and check which menu and customer data you are permitted to export and need to retain.
A practical migration looks like this:
- Ask GloriaFood which menu and customer data can be exported, in which formats, and by when.
- Discuss your domain and setup requirements with Fleksa.
- Ask how menu data can be transferred or rebuilt; configure hours and delivery options.
- Confirm how to connect your domain and payment method.
- Test the new ordering flow, update your ordering links, and then remove the GloriaFood widget.

Who should NOT pick Fleksa
The intellectually honest section. Fleksa is not for everyone.
- Marketplace-first restaurants. If direct ordering is not a priority, compare the POS integrations you need.
- Custom websites. If you need a fully custom-coded site, ask whether the ordering system works with it.
- Pre-launch restaurants. A simple ordering system may be enough to start.
- Large or complex groups. Check location management, integrations and switching costs against your requirements.
For an independent restaurant considering a direct ordering channel, Fleksa is one option to compare. Confirm the features and terms for your business.
