WineDirect Winery Software

WineDirect has historically provided winery ecommerce, wine club, point-of-sale, and fulfillment tools for direct-to-consumer wine sales. WineDirect’s ecommerce business is now part of Commerce7, while WineDirect continues to offer fulfillment services and support for legacy WineDirect Classic users.

WineDirect’s DTC software division was acquired by Commerce7’s parent company and is being transitioned to Commerce7, prompting many wineries to evaluate their options. Wineries looking for a more affordable alternative to Commerce7 should consider VinesOS, which offers no application fee, lower merchant processing rates, and an all-in-one platform for ecommerce, POS, wine clubs, reservations, and customer management.
