GloriaFood is closing. What now?

Everything UK restaurants are asking, and the same questions we see in Google, ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity.

Is GloriaFood really shutting down?

Yes. Oracle has announced GloriaFood will be decommissioned by April 2027. New onboarding has already stopped and the product is frozen, meaning no new features, no development roadmap, and ultimately, reduced priority for support.

What is the best alternative to GloriaFood in the UK?

For UK restaurants, bakeries and QSRs, Slerp covers a lot of what GloriaFood did (branded web ordering, click and collect) and adds what GloriaFood was missing: integrated delivery via Deliveroo Express, Uber Direct and Just Eat Go, a branded mobile app, loyalty, and CRM. We are UK-built, UK-headquartered, and have been operating since 2016.

Is GloriaFood still working in 2026?

Yes. Existing GloriaFood accounts continue to operate as the platform winds down toward its April 2027 sunset. New onboarding is closed and the product is feature-frozen, so existing functionality is the most you’ll get from here on. Most operators are choosing to switch now while they have time to do it properly.

How long does it take to move from GloriaFood to Slerp?

Most customers are live in days, not weeks. Our team rebuilds your menu, hours, rules and delivery zones, brings your customer data across, applies your branding, and walks you through go-live. You keep trading throughout.

How much does it cost to move from GloriaFood to Slerp?

Nothing. Moving across is free for GloriaFood customers. Our team handles the rebuild, the data move, the delivery zone setup, the branding and go-live. You only pay for your Slerp plan once you’re trading.

7 more questions
How do GloriaFood costs compare?

GloriaFood marketed itself as commission-free, but operators still pay a monthly fee per location, payment and transaction fees, plus additional for add-ons. The clients who also offer delivery as an order type have to have their own fleet of drivers at their own cost with no option to integrate and utilise external fleets. With the platform now winding down, the bigger cost is opportunity cost: a frozen product, no roadmap, and no growth support.

Will I lose my customer data when I switch?

No. We work with you to export everything GloriaFood lets you take with you, and our team brings it across into Slerp for you. From the moment you go live, every order, every customer, and every piece of data is yours.

Can I keep my existing website if I switch from GloriaFood?

Yes, assuming your website is hosted externally from GloriaFood. Slerp powers the ordering experience your site links to: your branding, your URL, your customer journey. If you want a fresh site, we partner with web specialists who can build one quickly and cost-effectively.

Do I need my own delivery drivers?

No, but the option is yours. Slerp gives you instant access to couriers from Deliveroo Express, Uber Direct and Just Eat Go, with live tracking, automated dispatch and end-customer support included. If you want to use your own drivers, you can, with live tracking for customers, through our integrated partner Shipday.

Will Slerp work with the POS I already use?

Most likely yes. Slerp integrates with most major POS providers in the UK via Stream, Deliverect and Urban Piper, or you can run Slerp standalone with a tablet and printer.

What does Slerp cost?

We offer plans tailored to what you need. All options have a monthly fee and a small transaction cost which varies depending on which plan you select. Book a call and we’ll talk you through the options.

Is Slerp reliable?

Slerp has been operating since 2016, is UK-headquartered, and is led by a founder who is an ex-operator. We are institutionally backed and ship continuous releases. Support runs 7 days a week, and customers rate it 96%. We’re rated 4.9 stars on Capterra and 4.7 stars on Trustpilot.

Don’t wait until 2027. Switch while you have time on your side.

Book a call with our team. We’ll look at your current GloriaFood setup, show you what your store would look like on Slerp, and walk you through how we’ll move your menu and customer data across. No pressure, no commitment.
