Selling and shipping wine to consumers in the United States is expensive and confusing. Wineries need to get Direct Shipping Permits for each state they want to ship to and collect/report the proper state taxes down to the local level. The sheer expense and time it takes to sell wine compliantly is a huge burden, leaving most small wineries only able to sell to a handful of states where potential revenue outweighs the cost of compliance.
VinoShipper is something of a godsend for these small producers…. a full service ecommerce/wine club/compliance company. Wineries can leverage VinoShipper’s shipping permits to quickly gain access to most states in the US within a matter of weeks. VinoShipper collects and pays the proper taxes and provides a nice ecommerce/club solution. We recommend this solution for wineries with a nationwide shipping strategy who don’t have the time or budget to secure their own Direct Shipper permits state by state!
If you need Vinoshipper integrated into a new or existing website, we are happy to help! Your online store can be a direct feed of all available VinoShipper products in one of several templated styles, or we can integrate custom Buy Buttons for a much more custom store style.
Vinoshipper is now able to integrate into Shopify! A growing number of wine brands, especially those that are digital-only without a tasting room, leverage Shopify as their ecommerce platform. However, compliance has always been an issue with Shopify, and wineries needed to procure their own shipping permits in order to legally sell to each state.
The team at Whirlwind Technologies has perfected an integration of Vinoshipper into Shopify. With this integration, customers will select the state they plan to ship to, and the order will either progress through Vinoshipper or Shopify based on the winery’s license in that shipping state.Â
