Link Mahal vs GloriaFood for restaurants in Lebanon

GloriaFood says on its own site that the product reaches end of life on April 30, 2027. Link Mahal is a WhatsApp store and digital menu built in Beirut: guests order on your link, the order arrives on your WhatsApp, and you keep the sale. Whish Pay, OMT, cash, and USD or LBP pricing are part of checkout. There is no commission on the order.

GloriaFood grew as a free restaurant ordering widget: paste a button on a website, take pickup and delivery, and confirm in their app. That model served restaurants that already had a site. It was not built around WhatsApp-first selling in Lebanon, Whish Pay, OMT, or pricing in Lebanese pounds.

On April 30, 2027 GloriaFood says the service ends. If your QR codes and Instagram bio still point at that menu, you need a live replacement before that date. Link Mahal is that kind of home: one store link, a QR for the table, modifiers the kitchen can read, and an order that lands in the WhatsApp chat you already use.

You are not renting a marketplace listing. Talabat and Toters can still bring new guests. Link Mahal is the direct path for regulars — the bio link, the table tent, the reply you send when someone asks for the menu. The sale stays yours.

Checkout speaks Lebanese payments. Cash on delivery, Whish Pay in the Whish Money app, OMT, and bank transfer sit next to pickup. Price in USD, in LBP, or show both with the rate you set. Link Mahal does not add a commission on top of the dish.

The same system is not stuck inside one country. Sellers who already ship Lebanese food and products to family abroad use the same catalog. Link Mahal is opening that store link to merchants outside Lebanon, without dropping Whish, cash, or Arabic and English menus for the home market.

Publish the menu, print the QR once, and put the link in your bio. If GloriaFood is where the menu lives today, move the dishes before the shutdown date so guests never hit a dead page.
