The verdict in 1 sentence

Looking for a cheaper alternative to Restaumatic? Restaumatic makes sense for a restaurant run single-handedly, with no website of its own and fewer than 30 reservations a month. Your own Lokal360 system pays off for any restaurant with more than 50 reservations a month or with traffic of its own (a website, a Google Business Profile, social media). It pays for itself in 12-18 months.

  • Restaumatic Standard: around 300 PLN/mo plus roughly a 5-8% commission on online reservations (approximate, per public pricing as of 2026, verify with the provider)
  • Lokal360 System Mini: 3 999 PLN to start plus 149 PLN/mo for care, 0% commission
  • 5 years: Restaumatic ~18,000 PLN, Lokal360 ~12 939 PLN, savings ~6,600 PLN
  • The key: in a premium restaurant (fine dining, atmospheric) Restaumatic hands customers to the competition ("Similar venues nearby"), so for that one Lokal360 is more of a strategic choice than a financial one

A note on pricing: the Restaumatic figures (a subscription of around 300 PLN/mo and roughly a 5-8% commission on online reservations) are an approximation from public pricing as of 2026, confirm the current plan for your venue directly with the provider. Lokal360 figures come from a public price list.

ROI in 3 scenarios

The figures below are example scenarios. The Restaumatic rates (a subscription of around 300 PLN/mo, roughly a 5-8% commission) are taken as an approximation per public pricing as of 2026, verify the current plan with the provider.

A casual restaurant (50 online reservations / mo, 100 PLN avg.)

Restaumatic: 300 PLN × 60 + 5% × 50 × 100 × 60 = 18,000 + 15,000 = 33,000 PLN / 5 years. Lokal360: 12 939 PLN / 5 years. Savings: ~22,000 PLN / 5 years. Break-even in 18-24 months.

A fine dining restaurant (30 reservations / mo, 250 PLN avg.)

Fewer reservations, but each one worth more. The key: you do not lose a premium customer to "Similar venues nearby". Restaumatic: 18,000 PLN of subscription + 5% × 30 × 250 × 60 = 18,000 + 22,500 = 40,500 PLN / 5 years. Lokal360: 12 939 PLN. Savings: ~29,500 PLN.

A small restaurant (15 reservations / mo)

Restaumatic: 18,000 PLN + 5% × 15 × 80 × 60 = 18,000 + 3,600 = 21,600 PLN. Lokal360: 12 939 PLN. Savings: ~10,600 PLN / 5 years. Break-even in 30 months, the edge of viability.

When Restaumatic is the better choice

  • A restaurant with no website of its own. Restaumatic gives you a profile and a system in one, and to start with no online presence at all that is OK.
  • Fewer than 20 online reservations / mo, at that scale your own system does not pay off.
  • A simple way of working (casual, pizzeria). Restaumatic handles 90% of such cases.
  • You do not want to deal with upkeep. Restaumatic runs without your involvement, Lokal360 needs monthly care.

When Lokal360 wins

  • 30+ online reservations / mo, it pays off financially within 18 months.
  • Fine dining or a premium feel, one lost customer costs a lot, and handing them to "Similar venues" hurts.
  • Traffic of your own (a website, a Google Business Profile, social media), you have guests, you do not need the Restaumatic portal. See what a complete solution for restaurants with commission-free reservations looks like.
  • A menu tailored to you and seasonality, a weekly kitchen, seasonal menus, events. Restaumatic is standard, Lokal360 builds it around you.
  • An email list for getting back in touch, a newsletter for returning guests, special offers. Restaumatic hides the email addresses.

FAQ

How much does Restaumatic cost and is there a cheaper alternative?

Restaumatic in the Standard package is a subscription of around 300 PLN a month plus roughly a 5-8% commission on online reservations (approximate, per public pricing as of 2026, verify with the provider), so the more reservations you take, the higher the bill. The cheaper alternative is your own Lokal360 System Mini: a one-off 3 999 PLN setup plus 149 PLN/mo for care and 0% commission. At 50 reservations a month it pays for itself in 18-24 months. You will find the full pricing breakdown in the table above.

Can I keep my Restaumatic profile and add Lokal360?

Yes. The strategy: Restaumatic as a portal that pulls in new guests, Lokal360 as the main channel from your own site and Google Business Profile. Over time you shift traffic from Restaumatic over to direct reservations.

What about the guest base in Restaumatic?

Restaumatic lets you export a CSV file (customers, past reservations), but the email addresses are often hidden (because of GDPR). I load the data into Lokal360, and new customers come with full access from the start.

Will my own system handle my tables?

Yes. As standard: a list of tables, splitting into rooms, the number of seats (2/4/6/8 people), a block during busy hours. More advanced options (assigning to a waiter, a kitchen view) are in the Standard package.

Are SMS reminders to guests expensive?

The cost is 0.08 PLN per SMS. 50 reservations × 2 texts (confirmation and reminder) = 100 SMS = 8 PLN / mo. Cheaper than a single month of Restaumatic.

Decision table

Who Restaumatic is better for, who Lokal360 is better for

This rival is an off-the-shelf option for a restaurant that wants a working online ordering system with delivery up and running in 2 weeks. Lokal360 makes sense once a restaurant matures: it has its own brand, wants to control pricing, integration with the till, and does not want to hand over 5-8% of every order each month.

Criterion Restaumatic better Lokal360 better
A fresh start, no kitchen or processes of your own ✓ yes
Turnover above 50,000 PLN a month online ✓ yes
Your own till (Posbistro, Gastropos), your own couriers ✓ yes
A chain of 2 or more venues with different price lists ✓ yes
Only Pyszne/Glovo, online is a 10% add-on ✓ yes

Realistically: Restaumatic for a restaurant that wants to start today and has no time for its own system. Lokal360 for a restaurant that already does 50-100 online orders a week and can see how much it hands over in commissions.

How to switch step by step

Moving from Restaumatic to Lokal360 in 5 steps

Moving a restaurant takes the most work of the whole set. You have to line up the menu, prices, availability, tills and couriers. Realistically it takes 4-6 weeks, but once the move is done the commission saving runs into tens of thousands a year.

  1. Week 1 (lining up the menu and data). Pulling the menu from the current platform (items, prices, categories, photos, allergens). Sales statistics for the last 6 months (which dishes are at the top, when the peak is). Decisions: what delivery hours, what zone, what minimum order.
  2. Weeks 2-3 (site, menu, basket). Building the restaurant site with photos from the menu, an online ordering system with a basket, delivery cost calculation, opening hours (different on holidays), payment choices (BLIK, card, cash to the courier).
  3. Week 4 (connecting to the till). Hooking up to the fiscal till (Posbistro, Gastropos, Comarch). An online order lands on the till in the kitchen automatically and prints a receipt. No manual re-keying.
  4. Week 5 (couriers and your own delivery). Launching your own couriers (a courier panel on the phone with a route) or connecting to Stuart/Glovo Pro (for businesses). Calculating delivery rates, zones 0-3 km, 3-5 km, 5-7 km.
  5. Week 6 (test and go-live). A week of testing with the staff (10-20 trial orders a day, checking the till, receipt, courier). Go-live, switching off the old platform. The old domain from the platform gets a 301 redirect to the new site.

Honestly about the pros and cons

What you gain, what you lose after moving from Restaumatic

You gain

  • No commission on orders (5-8% saved)
  • Full customer data (email, phone, order history)
  • A newsletter to your base of regular guests (weekend campaigns, seasonal promotions)
  • Connection to the till, a courier panel, your own delivery zones
  • VAT invoices directly, your own returns and complaints policy

You lose, what it costs

  • Support 7 days a week on the platform's side (Lokal360: care during working hours)
  • The Restaumatic marketplace (tens of thousands of views a month, some customers were looking for you there)
  • A ready system on demand (Lokal360 needs 4-6 weeks to implement versus 2 weeks at the provider)
  • The upfront cost (one-off, but it is an expense you have to finance)
  • Time: 2-4 hours a week managing the menu, hours, campaigns

What stays the same: Pyszne, Glovo, Bolt Food. Moving from Restaumatic does not mean giving up the portals that aggregate orders. The strategy: portals to win new customers, your own site to keep the regulars. After 6 months 30-50% of orders go directly.
