The POWR alternative built for restaurants, bars and pubs
POWR is a general plugin library priced per plugin. Foldout is the hospitality one: the venue widgets that actually matter, in one workspace price, with core data hosted in the EU.

POWR's public site checked 30 July 2026. Their pricing page describes per-plugin upgrades and an account-wide Business tier but displays no figures without an account, so this page quotes none; check theirs before deciding. “Not stated” means POWR publishes no position we could find, not that the answer is no.
A hospitality tool, not a general plugin library
EU data hosting
Core application and enquiry data is stored in Supabase's Ireland region, with subprocessors disclosed in our DPA.
GDPR-first by design
Built for UK hospitality from day one. Consent, retention and data rights handled properly.
Encrypted end to end
Encrypted in transit and at rest. The widget adds no tracking pixels to your site, and we never sell your data.
Works with any builder
WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, Elementor, Shopify, GoDaddy or custom HTML.
Switching from POWR
Is Foldout a good POWR alternative for a restaurant website?
If the widgets you need are the hospitality ones, yes. POWR is a general plugin library serving every industry; its forms and countdowns are generic by design. Foldout only builds venue tools: menus read from the file you already have, hours with split kitchen and bar services, enquiry forms with party-size and date fields, QR codes, events and the rest.
How does the pricing model differ from POWR's?
POWR sells upgrades per plugin type, with a Business tier covering the whole library. Foldout has no per-widget arithmetic at all: one workspace price covers every widget, published plainly as Free, £9, £19 or £29 a month. POWR's pricing page does not display figures without an account, so we quote none here; check theirs directly.
What does POWR do that Foldout will not?
Breadth. POWR's library spans dozens of plugin types across every industry: countdowns, social feeds, sliders, chat buttons. Foldout deliberately builds none of that. If your website needs a countdown timer more than it needs a correct menu, POWR is the better toolbox.
Can I replace a POWR form with a Foldout enquiry form?
Yes, and it is usually an upgrade for a venue: date, party size and space fields instead of generic inputs, routed delivery so private dining enquiries reach the right inbox, spam protection, GDPR consent and a tracked submissions inbox. Swap the embed code on the page and the form is live.
Does Foldout work on the same platforms as POWR?
Yes. Anywhere you can paste a script tag: WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix, Elementor, Shopify, GoDaddy and custom HTML sites.
