An open wine market — no middlemen

A wine market built by
sellers, not middlemen.

Auction houses slow the trade and skim the middle. This is the open alternative — trusted sellers, real reviews, direct sales. Lower cost and less friction, for buyers and sellers alike. Every bottle lists directly on Wine-Searcher, so you reach a global audience of buyers quickly.

Built for an open market

Everything a trusted seller needs.

Trade in the open: your reputation follows you, your listings reach real buyers, and the busywork — payments, shipping, your books — runs itself.

Open reach

Found on the open market

Every bottle lists on your storefront and feeds Wine-Searcher — the open market where buyers already look, no gatekeeper deciding who sees it.

Trust

Reviews you carry with you

Public reviews and verified-seller status build the reputation auctions keep to themselves — so new buyers trust you from the first listing.

Cataloguing

Photograph the label, keep the catalogue

AI reads the producer, vintage, region and condition off the label and drafts the listing — you review and publish.

Payment

Paid when they check out

Card payments through Stripe settle to your account at the moment of sale — no waiting weeks for a payout run.

Fulfilment

Print the label, book the courier

MyParcel, PostNL and DPD are built in, with tracking that updates itself from booked to delivered.

Your storefront

A shop that's yours, not a lot

Your name, your domain, your terms — a storefront you own, not a lot lost in someone else's marketplace.

Your buyers, your relationship

The buyers are yours to keep.

Auctions keep buyer and seller strangers. In an open market you build a real relationship — import the customers you already have, and send them your new arrivals under your own name. No middleman standing in between.
