What the next visit can look like

A reward they can actually spend.

With Dinevate, your restaurant can combine points, a stamp card and a reloadable wallet. Set the offer, give guests credit toward a meal, and keep that balance close to the next order in your app.

  1. 01 · LOAD$50 + $5

    A guest loads $50. Your first-load offer adds a $5 bonus.

  2. 02 · ORDER$55 → $30

    They spend $25 on a meal and keep $30 in their restaurant wallet.

  3. 03 · RETURN$31.25

    At 5% wallet cashback, $1.25 goes toward their next visit.

Example offer. Your restaurant sets eligibility, the bonus, cashback rate and cap. Points and stamp-card rules are configured separately.

Your offer, your controls.

Choose point values, stamp-card rewards and first-load incentives that suit your menu and margins.

A balance that works at checkout.

Guests can spend restaurant credit and pay any eligible remaining amount by card, without abandoning their order.

Your app is part of the plan.

Ordering, favorites and order history live under your restaurant’s name. Include that app and launch work when comparing total costs.

Dinevate Voice

The call after “order placed.”

A useful phone agent stays connected to the guest, the order and the next step. Put these three moments into your Dinevate and GloriaFood demos.

“Can I book a table or plan a party?”

Voice handles reservations and catering requests, including configured estimates, deposits and restaurant follow-up. It can also suggest relevant extras while taking a menu order.

“Can I use my rewards and saved card?”

Loyalty and saved cards remain part of the returning guest’s experience. Voice connects the order to secure checkout, where the guest can use an eligible saved card.

“Where’s my food? Can I change my order?”

Voice can dispatch through your configured delivery provider, answer order-status questions and edit or cancel eligible placed phone orders, following your rules and the current order stage.

Ask each provider to complete these journeys using an actual order in the demo. Compare the actions completed, the staff handoffs and what is included in the quote. Dinevate Voice is an optional service with separate pricing and currently supports English.

What is Dinevate?

Dinevate connects a restaurant website, direct online ordering, a branded mobile app, loyalty and a guest wallet. Dinevate Voice brings that experience to English phone calls: ordering, reservations, catering requests, upselling, loyalty, saved-card checkout, delivery dispatch and order updates, including eligible edits and cancellations of placed phone orders. Your menu, customer records and order workflow stay connected. The team helps prepare your menu, website and launch.

Before you decide

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Pricing, product fit and the practical details of a switch.

Why choose Dinevate if GloriaFood also offers loyalty tools?

Dinevate gives your restaurant several ways to encourage another visit: points, configurable stamp cards and a spendable restaurant wallet. You can set an eligible first-load bonus, cashback and its cap, then let a guest combine wallet credit with a card at checkout. Your branded app is included and keeps the menu, favorites and order history close. Compare that full guest journey with the specific GloriaFood configuration in your quote, along with monthly fees, order charges and who handles launch. Choose Dinevate when those controls and the connected experience fit the way you want to run your restaurant.

What should I compare beyond taking a new phone order?

Ask each provider to demonstrate a reservation, catering request, relevant upsell, returning guest using loyalty and a saved card through secure checkout, delivery-driver dispatch, a caller asking where their food is, and an edit or cancellation after a phone order is placed. Dinevate Voice supports these connected caller journeys in English. Catering requests follow your configured estimate, deposit and follow-up process. Edits and cancellations apply to eligible placed phone orders within the supported change window, following restaurant rules, payment method and the current order stage. Compare what the quoted setup completes for the caller, what needs a staff handoff and how the result appears in the restaurant's order records.

When does GloriaFood end service?

Oracle's official Food and Beverage page states that full end of service is scheduled for March 31, 2027. Plan your replacement and testing ahead of that date.

Can a new restaurant still sign up for GloriaFood?

No. GloriaFood's official site says the service has been discontinued and is no longer accepting new signups.

What does Dinevate cost?

Four monthly plans include a $0/month option with a 20% online pricing adjustment. The restaurant, guest or an even split can cover the applicable adjustment, depending on the selected plan. Review the current pricing page and your proposal for the exact fees, launch scope, equipment and optional products. Compare the complete cost using the same order volume for every provider.

What should I move first from GloriaFood?

Start with domain access, current menu data, item options, public ordering links and any available customer export. Confirm what can be migrated, rebuild the menu, then test payments and kitchen routing before updating the website and Google ordering links.
