Questions about Glop and Food&Service.

Another question? Write to us

  • Is Food&Service an alternative to Glop?

    Yes. Both are hospitality POS systems with handheld ordering, a kitchen display, a QR menu, bookings, stock with recipe costing, an integrated card terminal and VeriFactu. The difference is how they work and how you pay: Glop is installed on a Windows computer, bought as a licence and extended with versions and modules. Food&Service runs in the browser of any tablet, computer or phone, with no device limit, everything in the same program and a fee with no minimum term.

  • How much does Food&Service cost compared with Glop?

    Glop sells licences you own: Glop MINI and Glop PRO have no monthly fee and Glop BUSINESS has one. Modules such as handheld ordering, the kitchen monitor or delivery are charged separately; in MINI and PRO, updates are paid separately, and installation, training and support go through the distributor. Food&Service has one plan tailored to your venue, with no minimum term, and we give you the final price in the demo, free and with no commitment. To compare properly, add up the licence, modules, updates, support and hardware.

  • Does Food&Service work without internet?

    No. Food&Service needs internet, over wifi or mobile data. Glop is installed on your own computer, and its website says you can keep working through occasional connection problems. If the connection often fails where you are, bear that in mind when you choose.

  • Which phones can be used for handheld ordering?

    With Food&Service, any phone or tablet, Android or iPhone: handheld ordering is the same POS in the browser, it installs like an app and you don't pay per device. With Glop, according to its website, handheld ordering is an app for Android smartphones, PDAs and tablets, including your own Android phone, and it is contracted as a separately charged module in PRO and BUSINESS.

  • Do both comply with VeriFactu?

    Glop says it is adapted to VeriFactu, with sending to the tax authorities from your own computer, and that it has TicketBAI integration; its website warns that without the optional fee, the legal and regulatory adaptations in new versions are not included. Food&Service includes VeriFactu and TicketBAI. Spain's tax authorities don't approve software: each manufacturer signs a responsible statement, and the Food&Service one is published on our website. VeriFactu is postponed to October 2028: Spain's Ministry of Finance announced it on 5 October 2026 and it still has to be published in the BOE, Spain's official gazette; until then, the legal dates are 1 January 2027 for companies and 1 July 2027 for everyone else.

  • Who helps you if you have a problem?

    With Glop, support comes from the distributor that sold and installed your licence, on the terms you agree with them: one-off help, support packs or maintenance contracts. If you can't solve an issue with them, its website offers contact with the Glop team. With Food&Service you talk directly to our support, every day from 9:00 to 24:00, by phone and WhatsApp.

  • How do I switch from Glop to Food&Service?

    In the demo we look at how you work and give you the price. Then setup is guided and remote: we configure the menu, tables, printers and users with you, and train your team. Because Food&Service runs in the browser, you can keep using the computers, tablets and phones you already have. With Glop the licence is yours: before switching, check the notice period of your support contract or fee, if you have one.
