GrazieChef vs ready2order
ready2order is an Austrian cloud till for small businesses, with public prices from €35.90/month and a Gastro package. GrazieChef is a light order app with a free plan. Honest comparison.
ready2order publishes its prices (net of VAT): the till costs €35.90/month per device, or €430.80 a year, plus a one-off activation fee of €99. For restaurants you add the Gastro package at €23.90/month (tables, kitchen printing, split bills) and the mandatory TSE fiscal package at €15.90/month. Card payments with readyPay cost 1.23% per transaction, and it sells its own tablets and terminals. Annual plans renew automatically with 30 days' notice. GrazieChef is not a fiscal till: it covers the live table map, orders to the kitchen and the bill, with a free plan and no activation fee.
