most popular 3rd party solution for compliant DTC shipping of spirits to several states?


Recommended Posts

We currently just ship in our home state, but we seem to be in the minority. I seem to recall Speakeasyco as one solution. Are there any others that dominate the market? I see FullCircle Commerce referenced in a previous post, but that doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for.

I just want to put out there to NOT use Ohanafy. They have royally screwed the pooch with us and I want to make sure they don't have the opportunity to mess up anyone else of us hard working distillers. They are slow, unorganized, and most of all backstabbing and cannot be trusted. If you happen to stumble across them in your research, don't use them!

Best of luck finding a good software.

Cheers!

Thank you both for the feedback. Barcart/Flaviar looks like the big daddy solution. Anyone have any firsthand experience working with them?

NY has just allowed DTC shipping, and since I am a VERY small distillery I did a lot of research and came up with Vinoshipper. They have been doing wine for years, and now do spirits. No monthly charge, % on sales only, and fully compliant.

We have only just started with them, but reviews were good, and they don't require a ridiculous amount of business info to get set up!

One of the things I liked most was it integrated with my GoDaddy non eCommerce webpage with very little effort, turning it into a compliant eComerce page at NO extra cost!!. They can also give you complete POS systems and software if that is the route you need.

How is fulfillment handled and are you shipping just within NY State, or NY and the other 8 that have reciprocity?  I am in NYS also, Long island and looking at our options since we are new too and the fees others charge are too much for us at the current sales levels.

Just NY and we box it up for UPS and they pick it up. We do not have a UPS account,  it is all through Vinoshipper. They can do any state you are licensed in and can help you get licensed in other states, they also collect takes etc. It's all on their site or you can call and actually talk to someone if you like.

Tipxy can do everything Speakeasy & Barcart does but for way less. They have a retailer in NY that can ship to 45 states.
