The modern GloriaFood alternative, built for UK takeaways.

Aexir is a flat monthly fee at published prices: Web £30, Starter £30, Plus £40 and Pro £50 a month ex VAT. For restaurants moving from GloriaFood before 30 April 2027 there is a switch offer: take any plan on a 12-month term and your first three months are free, then the published price. GloriaFood showed what a free platform costs in the end: the provider owns the system and decides when it closes.

Move a UK restaurant from GloriaFood to Aexir before 30 April 2027, take any plan on a 12-month term, and your first three months are £0, then the published price for your plan. Cancel before the 12 paid months are complete and the free months are charged at the published price. Proof is a screenshot of your GloriaFood admin page. Full terms are on the GloriaFood switch offer page.

On list price, Square Online (£0 a month plus 1.4% and 25p per UK card payment online) and Storekit Starter (£0 a month plus an unpublished flat per-order rate) are the cheapest, with no branded app on those tiers. The cheapest option with a published flat fee and your own branded app is Aexir at £30 a month ex VAT, which does not rise with order volume. GloriaFood restaurants switching before 30 April 2027 get three months free on a 12-month plan.

No free tier works the way GloriaFood did without per-order or card fees, and the shutdown shows how free platforms end. Aexir’s switch offer gives GloriaFood restaurants their first three months at £0 on a 12-month plan, then the published price from £30 a month ex VAT.

GloriaFood’s core plan was free, with paid add-ons such as online card payments at US$29 a month and POS at US$49 a month per location. Aexir starts at £30 a month ex VAT with every feature on your plan included and no add-on charges. Full pricing is always published at aexir.com/pricing.

Yes. Send us your menu in whatever form you have it (a spreadsheet, a PDF or photos) and we build it into your app and ordering website as part of setup. Save your customer list from GloriaFood yourself before the cutoff; it is yours to keep and to use to tell regulars about the new app.

Setup is handled for you and most restaurants are live in under 30 days. App Store review times are outside anyone’s control, so start early enough to run GloriaFood and the new system side by side before the deadline.

Oracle retires GloriaFood on 30 April 2027. New signups are already closed, and Oracle has confirmed there is no migration tool and no data retention after the cutoff.

Aexir charges a flat monthly fee at published prices. Card payments run through Stripe at the published rates, with Apple Pay and Google Pay at checkout.

Yes. Aexir is your own direct channel and runs alongside any marketplace you choose to keep. The savings calculator shows what moving regulars to direct ordering is worth with your own order numbers.

No. POS on the Go runs in any browser on the tablet or laptop you already have. A native till on Sunmi hardware is available if you want a dedicated counter device.

The best replacement gives you what GloriaFood could not: your own brand on the ordering site and app, a published price in pounds, your data in your hands, and setup finished months before 30 April 2027. Aexir is built as that: a branded ordering website with POS on the Go on the Web plan at £30 a month ex VAT, and your own iOS and Android app on Starter (£30), Plus (£40) and Pro (£50), with three months free for GloriaFood restaurants on a 12-month plan.

Oracle’s notice on gloriafood.com says it does not offer a direct replacement for GloriaFood products and services, and then points customers to a third-party provider, FoodAmigos, which offers onboarding help for GloriaFood customers moving to its platform. There is no Oracle migration tool, so whichever provider you choose, save your menu, photos and customer list yourself first.

End of life is Oracle’s own phrase: its notice reads “GloriaFood will reach end of life on April 30, 2027. We remain committed to supporting existing customers through this date.” In plain terms the service stops on that date, existing accounts are supported until then, new signups are already closed, and nothing you have not saved survives it.

The core GloriaFood ordering system is free, with paid add-ons priced in US dollars on gloriafood.com/pricing (checked 12 October 2026): online card payments at US$29 a month, advanced promo marketing at US$19 a month, POS at US$49 a month per location on a two-year commitment, and table reservation deposits at US$0.50 per accepted guest. Signups are closed, so a new restaurant cannot start on it, and every plan ends on 30 April 2027.

GloriaFood’s pricing page lists branded mobile apps as a premium feature without a price. The apps run on the GloriaFood service, so they reach end of life with it on 30 April 2027. With Aexir your own iOS and Android app, under your restaurant’s name on the App Store and Google Play, is included on Starter (£30), Plus (£40) and Pro (£50 a month ex VAT).

GloriaFood’s POS add-on is US$49 a month per location on a two-year commitment. Aexir includes POS on the Go, a full till and back office in any browser, on the Web and Pro plans: live menu changes, stock counts, refunds, order history and a sales dashboard with CSV export, on the tablet or laptop you already have. A native till on Sunmi hardware with integrated receipt printing is available if you want a dedicated counter device.

Storekit’s pricing page lists a Starter plan that is free with a flat per-order rate, Grow at £99 a month, Pro at £199 a month and Enterprise from £995 per brand a month, per location ex VAT (storekit.com/pricing, 10 October 2026). The per-order and card rates are not on that page, so the free plan has no public total cost, and the branded app is a £99 a month add-on on Pro. Aexir publishes every price and includes the app from £30 a month.

Flipdish’s UK pricing page lists an Essential package from £119 a month per site billed annually, or £139 billed monthly, ex VAT, with branded website and apps included (flipdish.com/gb/pricing, 10 October 2026); add-on, card and per-order fees are not published there. Aexir’s Pro plan, with app, website and POS on the Go, is £50 a month ex VAT.

Square Online’s free plan is £0 a month plus 1.4% and 25p on every UK card payment online (squareup.com/gb, 10 October 2026), with a Plus plan from £29 a month checked on 7 September 2026, and no branded app advertised. It is the closest thing to GloriaFood’s free model, paid for per order. Aexir is a flat £30 to £50 a month ex VAT that does not rise with your order count, with your own app on the app plans.
