GloriaFood is shutting down on 30 April 2027: what ends and what to do

Where does the 30 April 2027 date come from?

From the FAQ published by Oracle, which owns GloriaFood: ‘Oracle GloriaFood EOL Frequently Asked Questions’, version 1.0 of March 2026 (Oracle's PDF document). EOL means ‘end of life’. The document sets the end of all GloriaFood products and services on 30 April 2027.

The gloriafood.com website shows the same date in its banner, read on 30 September 2026: ‘GloriaFood will reach end of life on April 30, 2027.’

If you read a different date elsewhere, rely on Oracle's document: it is the primary source, dated and versioned.

What ends on 30 April 2027?

According to Oracle's FAQ, everything ends on the same date:

• online ordering, on the free plan as well as the paid plans;
• the GloriaFood POS;
• Oracle Payment, the payment service offered with GloriaFood;
• the GloriaFood partner programme.

Oracle no longer signs new direct contracts with restaurants. Partners can still sign up restaurants until 30 April 2027.

Why can a paid service end before 30 April?

Because renewals are only accepted until one month before 30 April 2027. A paid service ends when its last renewal runs out, which can fall before the general shutdown date.

Oracle's example: a renewal on 3 March 2027 ends on 3 April 2027. That restaurant loses its paid service almost a month before everyone else.

The free plan stays available until 30 April 2027. No extension is possible after that.

Check the date of your next GloriaFood renewal now: if you are on a paid plan, that date, not 30 April, is your real deadline.

How long do you have to retrieve your data?

Thirty days. According to Oracle's FAQ, after a service expires, is terminated or is cancelled, the restaurant has 30 days to retrieve its data. After that, don't count on it.

Don't wait until the end of that period to export what you need:

• your customers: in the GloriaFood admin, open the reports (‘Reports’), the list view (‘List view’), then the customer list (‘Clients’), and export it as a CSV file;
• your order and booking history, for your accounts;
• your menu, if you plan to import it elsewhere: at ARDOIZA, the import reads the menu directly at GloriaFood, so it only works while the service is running.

What should you do before April 2027?

Here is a cautious timeline, built from Oracle's dates. Adjust it to the date of your last renewal.

1. By the end of 2026: choose. List what GloriaFood does for you today (collection orders, delivery, table booking, online payment, POS) and check what the replacement will take over. Create the accounts you need and run a trial.
2. Early 2027: import and test. Import your menu, check it, complete anything that wasn't imported, then place a test order. Export your customers as CSV.
3. Before your last renewal: switch over. Put the new solution live on your website and your printed materials, then deactivate GloriaFood. Renewals are only accepted until one month before 30 April 2027.
4. 30 April 2027: general shutdown. The free plan ends that day; a paid service may have ended earlier.
5. Within 30 days of your service ending: retrieve. Download any data you still need.

Import your menu before the shutdown

ARDOIZA imports your GloriaFood menu (categories, dishes, prices, options, photos, discounts and hours) and keeps your WordPress pages and buttons. It takes over collection orders and table booking, with no commission. ARDOIZA does not do delivery.

Everything is explained on the GloriaFood alternative page, and the import step by step in the Migrate from GloriaFood guide. Prices are on the Our plans page.
