Build your customer base with WineDirect’s integrated marketplace distribution network —the only one of its kind—that enables you to seamlessly connect to third-party platforms including Amazon, eBay, and many top travel and luxury loyalty programs in the United States.
Our marketplace distribution tools are available through our Lite, Plus, and Enterprise service plans.
Explore PlansUsing our marketplace distribution services is easy. When uploading a new product, simply check “make available to the marketplace,” and you’re all set. Your wine will now be seen by visitors to stores like eBay, Vivino, and many luxury travel rewards sites.
We work with sellers whose customer base closely matches yours in terms of lifestyle, attitudes, and interest in wine. The only difference? These customers haven’t met you yet—and they may not live anywhere near your tasting room. Marketplace distribution lets you go directly to them.
We handle all of the payment-processing and disbursements, maintaining an escrow fund on behalf of participating wineries. We also support your winery’s compliance with liquor regulations throughout the United States through our integration with ShipCompliant.
If you already use WineDirect fulfillment services, nothing will change.
