Free GloriaFood alternative
Short answer
Yes, there are free GloriaFood alternatives. PlateTicket's Starter plan is free for taking orders online and is commission-free; Square Online has a free tier where you pay only card-processing fees. The key is to keep GloriaFood's "free and commission-free" win — don't replace it with a delivery marketplace that takes 15–30% of every order. For batch and pre-order sellers, PlateTicket also adds drops and a production sheet on the free tier's foundation.
What 'free' really means
Free-to-start plans cover taking orders online; you still pay standard card-processing fees on paid orders. That's very different from a marketplace commission that skims a big cut of the order itself.
Commission-free is the real win
GloriaFood was loved for 0% commission. Keep it: a free, commission-free storefront preserves your margin. See commission-free online ordering.
Free — and built for drops
PlateTicket's free Starter plan takes orders online; upgrade only for delivery, the production sheet, or a custom domain. Compare in the full GloriaFood alternative.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free alternative to GloriaFood?
Yes. PlateTicket has a free Starter plan and is commission-free, and Square Online offers a free tier where you pay card-processing fees. Both let you replace GloriaFood's ordering without a per-order commission — avoid marketplaces that take 15–30% of each order.
Is PlateTicket free like GloriaFood was?
PlateTicket's Starter plan is free for taking orders online and, like GloriaFood, charges 0% commission. Paid plans add delivery, the production sheet, and a custom domain, but you can replace GloriaFood at no monthly cost on Starter.
Are free ordering tools really free?
The plan can be free, but you'll still pay standard card-processing fees on paid orders — that's normal and small compared with a marketplace commission. The important thing is avoiding a per-order cut, which free, commission-free tools like PlateTicket don't charge.
