Comparison
What TheFork Manager costs,
and an alternative with no commission.
TheFork Manager publishes no prices: on its page, all three plans say “Descubre nuestra oferta para ti” (find out our offer for you). What it does say is that bookings coming from TheFork, TripAdvisor and partners pay a “comisión basada en % del ticket medio por cliente” (a commission based on a % of the average bill per guest), and that those from your website, Instagram and Facebook are included in the price. taula.ai is a flat fee, €9.99 on Basic or €24.99 on Pro, excluding VAT, with no commission on any channel.
30 days free, no card and no lock-in.

The maths
The first year, added up
For taula.ai, twelve months of fees, excluding VAT. TheFork Manager does not publish its fee, and what you pay for bookings from its portal depends on how many guests come that way and on the average bill: without your own numbers it cannot be added up. And they are not the same feature for feature: see the table above.
| Plan | How it adds up | First year, excl. VAT |
|---|---|---|
| taula.ai Basic | €9.99 × 12 (up to 60 online bookings a month) | €119.88 |
| taula.ai Pro | €24.99 × 12 (or €249 paying yearly), unlimited | €299.88 |
| TheFork Manager | Fee not published; bookings from TheFork, TripAdvisor and partners pay a % of the average bill per guest | — |
The part that does not favour us
When TheFork suits you better than we do
- If you need new guests to find you: TheFork is a portal where people look for restaurants, and its page says it opens you up to “millones de clientes potenciales” (millions of potential guests). taula.ai is not a portal: bookings reach you from your own website, Google and Instagram, from people who have already found you.
- If you want a waiting list, pay at table or gift cards: TheFork Manager has them (“Lista de espera” on Performance and Enterprise; “TheFork Pay” and gift cards on every plan). taula.ai has none of the three.
- If you want support every day of the week and an account manager: TheFork Manager’s page says “Atención al cliente 7 días a la semana” and “Asesor de cuenta dedicado”. On taula.ai Basic, support is by email within 48 hours.

Questions
TheFork and taula.ai: frequently asked questions
How much does TheFork Manager cost?
- TheFork Manager publishes no prices on its page: the Visibility, Performance and Enterprise plans say “Descubre nuestra oferta para ti” and ask you to get in touch. It does say that bookings coming from TheFork, TripAdvisor and partners pay a “comisión basada en % del ticket medio por cliente” (a commission based on a % of the average bill per guest), and that bookings from the restaurant’s website, Instagram and Facebook are included in the price.

How much does TheFork charge per guest?
- TheFork Manager gives no figure: according to its pricing page, bookings coming from TheFork, TripAdvisor and partners pay a “comisión basada en % del ticket medio por cliente” (a commission based on a % of the average bill per guest), and the percentage is not public. If you are looking for an alternative with no commission, one is taula.ai: a flat fee of €9.99 + VAT (€12.09) a month on Basic, with up to 60 online bookings a month, or €24.99 + VAT (€30.24) on Pro, with unlimited bookings, no commission per booking or per guest and no minimum term. It includes the floor plan, email reminders, the restaurant website and the QR menu, with a 30-day trial and no card. It is not a portal: it does not bring new guests the way TheFork does, it takes the bookings from the restaurant’s own website, Google and Instagram.
Do bookings from the restaurant’s own website pay commission to TheFork?
- According to TheFork Manager’s pricing page, no: bookings “procedentes de tu sitio web, Instagram y Facebook” are listed as “Incluido en el precio” (included in the price), and the commission applies to those coming from TheFork, TripAdvisor and partners. The fee for each plan is not public. Source: theforkmanager.com, checked on 27 October 2026.
