How to Compare QR Ordering Tools

People comparing QR ordering tools want one answer: which one fits my venue? We describe our own product here and, for GloriaFood, only what its own pages say, with the date we checked. Check each vendor's own website before you decide, because features and prices change. A side-by-side page with dated sources is on our comparison page.

A checklist for any QR ordering tool

Use the same questions for each tool.

Question	QckOrder today
Can guests order from their phone?	Yes
Does the guest need to install an app?	No, it opens in the browser
Can guests pay in the app?	No. Guests pay the venue, staff mark the order paid
Is there a POS or till?	No
Does each table get its own code?	Yes, a code for every table plus one for the whole venue
Which menu languages?	Polish, English, Italian, Spanish, Japanese
What do analytics show?	Revenue, average order value, items and orders per location and period
How do staff see orders?	New orders appear on their own in the dashboard within about 15 seconds, with a sound
Pricing model	Plan price plus 1% of the value of completed orders, 14-day free trial. See pricing

What QckOrder lacks

We would rather you know before you sign up.

No payment in the app. Orders are order-only.
No POS. QckOrder does not replace your till.
No automatic upselling or AI recommendations. Menu design does that job; see upselling through menu design.

What GloriaFood says about itself

We read GloriaFood's own pages on 14 October 2026.

Its home page says: "GloriaFood will reach end of life on April 30, 2027." It adds that the vendor remains committed to supporting existing customers through that date.
Its pricing page lists a free plan with unlimited orders and locations, with QR dine-in ordering included, and states there is no per-order commission.
The same page lists optional online payment at US$29 per month and a restaurant point-of-sale service at US$49 per month per location on a 2-year commitment. Prices exclude taxes if any.

For the full table with sources, read our GloriaFood alternative page. Read each other vendor's own pages the same way.

What to ask each vendor

Open their sites and check the same rows. Pay attention to:

What is included in the price, and what costs extra.
Whether there are fees per order, and what they add up to at your volume.
Which languages the guest menu supports.
How orders reach your team.
How you leave if it is not working.

Write each answer down with the date you found it. Prices and features change.

How to decide

Rank the rows by what matters to your venue. A cafe may care about speed in the morning rush (cafe setup guide). A hotel bar may care about languages (multilingual menus). If a must-have feature is missing from one tool, remove it from the list.

Conclusion
