Questions
How much does Foodhub cost?
Foodhub does not publish its prices on the pages we read on 12 November 2026. Its business terms say rental is paid weekly by direct debit. Ask for a written quote that lists the weekly rental, any setup fee and the customer service fee.
Is Foodhub a 12-month contract?
Foodhub's business terms (dated 27 March 2026) start with an 8-week initial period. If you do not give notice inside it, the contract continues on a rolling 12-month basis, and you need 30 days' written notice expiring at the end of a 12-month period to leave.
Is Chefzi cheaper than Foodhub?
We cannot compare totals because Foodhub does not publish prices. Chefzi is Starter £12 a month (£9 billed annually), Plus £22 (£19) or Pro £49 (£39), per location, excluding VAT, with 0% commission and no setup fee.
Does Chefzi list my restaurant on a marketplace like Foodhub?
No. Chefzi gives you your own ordering website on your own domain; it does not run a consumer marketplace. Many shops keep a marketplace for new customers and move regulars to their own site.
Does Chefzi have a branded app on iPhone?
Not yet. Chefzi's branded customer app is on Android with Pro, and the iOS app is coming soon. iPhone customers order on your Chefzi website meanwhile.
Is there a contract with Chefzi?
No. Chefzi plans are month to month with no contract, so you can cancel anytime. The first month is free and no credit card is needed.
What happens if my tablet goes offline?
Chefzi orders ring in the Chefzi Orders app until someone accepts. If the device is offline when an order arrives, Chefzi texts the restaurant and auto-calls your mobile or phone line.

Chefzi publishes its plans: Starter £12 a month (£9 billed annually), Plus £22 (£19) with card payments through your own processor and SMS and email marketing, and Pro £49 (£39) with your own branded Android app, the Chefzi POS browser till and customer loyalty rewards.

- You want a till, kitchen screen and kiosk from one supplier, plus a marketplace listing: Foodhub sells all of these. Chefzi does not sell hardware, kiosks or a marketplace.
- You want a branded app on iPhone for customers today: Foodhub says it builds iOS and Android apps. Chefzi's branded app is Android on Pro; the customer iOS app is coming soon, not live yet.
- You want a known price and no long contract: Chefzi's plans are published and run month to month. Foodhub's terms roll on for 12 months at a time after the first 8 weeks.

The contract, in plain English
Foodhub's business terms say the contract starts with an 8-week initial period. If you do not give notice inside it, the contract continues on a rolling 12-month basis. To leave after that, you give at least 30 days' written notice expiring on the last day of the 12-month period, return the equipment and pay any balance. Rental is collected weekly in arrears by direct debit, and the terms let Foodhub keep the consumer service fee on your website and app orders while there is no active direct debit or an unpaid balance. Read the agreement you are sent; your own terms may differ.
Chefzi plans run month to month with no contract: you can cancel anytime, and the first month is free with no card needed.
Where Foodhub is stronger
- Hardware and a till in one package, with kitchen display and kiosk options.
- A marketplace listing on Foodhub's own marketplace portal, which Chefzi does not have.
- iOS and Android customer apps now; Chefzi's customer iOS app is coming soon.
- Integrations with Just Eat, Uber Eats and Deliveroo orders on its EPOS.
Where Chefzi is stronger
- No long contract: month to month, against a rolling 12-month term.
- A published price on every plan, so you can work out the cost before talking to anyone.
- No equipment to rent or return: Chefzi runs on a phone or tablet you already own.
- Your choice of card processor on Plus and Pro (Stripe Connect, Square, Worldpay or PayPal).
- Offline order alerts: if the device drops offline, Chefzi texts you and auto-calls your mobile or phone line.
How to choose
If you want one supplier for the till, the hardware and a marketplace listing, and you are happy with a rolling 12-month term, Foodhub is built for that. If your priority is direct orders on your own website at a known monthly price you can stop at any time, start a free month with Chefzi.
