- 3The order lands with you
Off-licences and independent wine shops sell wine, beer and spirits over the counter, run tasting evenings and take bigger orders for parties, weddings and local businesses, often with local delivery. Counter sales need to be quick, tastings need tickets and bigger orders need paying before delivery. A payments app that takes fast counter payments, sells tasting tickets by link and takes payment for orders before delivery can win these shops, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Sell tasting tickets by link
A ticket link for a tasting evening lets customers book ahead, so the shop knows how many bottles to open.

Take payment before delivery
A payment link for a party order or a local delivery means the shop is paid before the van leaves.
Grow through food and drink
Wine shops buy from wineries and breweries and sell alongside delis and cheese shops. One shop on your app can introduce the others.
