Platform comparison

Vintiga vs Commerce7 for winery DTC

Commerce7 is the established direct-to-consumer platform for wineries, and since 2025 it also owns WineDirect's former software division. Here's how it compares to Vintiga on the decisions that actually change day-to-day work.

Reservations, SMS and wallet passes: included, not add-ons.

The short answer

Commerce7 and Vintiga are both direct-to-consumer platforms built for wineries, and both handle club, ecommerce and point of sale. Commerce7 is the larger, longer-established platform, now backed by Fullsteam following its 2025 acquisition of WineDirect's DTC division. Vintiga is a smaller, founder-led alternative that bundles guest marketing, reservations and website hosting into every tier rather than pricing them as add-ons.

The real decision

What you're actually choosing between

Both platforms serve the same core job — running a winery's tasting room, wine club and online store from one system. The difference is less about whether either can do the job, and more about what's bundled, what's ownership structure, and what it costs to reach full coverage.

2025

Fullsteam, Commerce7's parent company, acquired WineDirect's direct-to-consumer software division, making Commerce7 part of a larger payments-led software group. Commerce7

Switching an established Commerce7 account isn't a same-day decision. Most wineries evaluating Vintiga run it alongside Commerce7 first — guest intelligence and marketing on Vintiga, commerce staying put — before deciding whether to consolidate further.

What Vintiga does not do

Said plainly, not softened. If a tool below is central to how you run the winery, it stays exactly where it is.

Fulfilment

Vintiga does not pick, pack or ship. Whoever handles fulfilment for you today stays exactly where it is.

Compliance filing

Vintiga does not file your state reports. Sovos ShipCompliant or your equivalent stays in place.

Production and winemaking

No barrel tracking, no blending, no harvest data. InnoVint, vintrace and similar tools are unaffected.

Accounting and payroll

QuickBooks stays. Payroll is not on the roadmap.

“Powerful all-in-one DTC platform with Point of Sale, Clubs, Ecommerce, CRM and Analytics.”

Frequently asked questions

Is Vintiga a Commerce7 competitor or an add-on to it?

Both are possible. Vintiga runs standalone as a full platform, or alongside Commerce7 first — handling guest marketing, reservations and website while Commerce7 continues running club and checkout.

Does Commerce7 have reservations?

It's available through Commerce7's app marketplace rather than built into the base platform. Vintiga includes reservations natively, with deposits and no-show protection, at every tier.

How does pricing compare?

Commerce7 publishes tiered plans with add-ons priced separately; check commerce7.com for current figures. Vintiga is one flat monthly price by annual DTC revenue: $279/mo at under $250K, $479/mo at $250K–$1M, $749/mo at $1M–$2M, a custom quote at $2M+. A one-time setup fee applies, migration and onboarding are quoted separately, and there is no commission on DTC sales.

Who owns Commerce7?

Commerce7 is owned by Fullsteam, a payments-led software group that also acquired WineDirect's direct-to-consumer software division in January 2025.

Can I migrate from Commerce7 to Vintiga?

Yes. Products, customers, orders and club members are imported as part of onboarding, and Vintiga can run alongside Commerce7 before anything is switched off.

Does Vintiga have as many integrations as Commerce7?

Not yet. Commerce7 has a larger, more established app marketplace. Vintiga's integration list is smaller and growing — see the current list at /integrations.

What doesn't Vintiga do?

Fulfilment, compliance filing, production and payroll. Those stay with whatever you use today, on either platform.

How long does onboarding take?

Most wineries are fully live within two weeks, with the website typically live sooner.
