Honest comparison
RestoMate vs OrderMate
OrderMate is one of Australia's longest-established hospitality POS providers, operating since 2001 and now part of the Oolio group. It's a capable, integration-rich platform popular with larger venues. Here's how RestoMate compares for independent restaurants, cafés and takeaways.
Where OrderMate does well
- Long track record in Australian hospitality (est. 2001)
- Deep integration marketplace including delivery platforms, rostering and reservations
- Enterprise and stadium/venue-scale deployments
- 24/7 phone support
Where RestoMate differs
- RestoMate includes loyalty, CRM, online ordering and a branded website in the core subscription rather than via third-party integrations
- RestoMate deliberately has no Uber Eats / DoorDash / Menulog integrations — it's built for venues that want direct, commission-free ordering
- RestoMate is delivered with 48-hour setup and backed by 24/7 Australian phone support, rather than a consultant-led process
- Simple all-inclusive subscription vs quote-based, consultant-scoped pricing
