    WineDirect and Volty

    Wineries on WineDirect let club members ask Volty about their next release or order, and route skips and address changes to the club team for approval.

    What Volty does with WineDirect

    WineDirect runs direct to consumer sales for wineries: the web store, tasting room point of sale, wine club and fulfillment. Volty reads a member's club tier, next release date and ship address so they get an answer while your team pours. When a member asks to skip a release or change where it ships, Volty drafts the change for a colleague to approve.

    • Next release, read from the club

      Tier, ship date and bottles for the member who asks.

    • Adult signature reminder

      Order answers mention that someone 21 or over must sign.

    • Club changes approved first

      Address changes and skips wait for your club team.

    • The member's own club only

      Lookups match the email or phone on their WineDirect customer.

    How Volty connects to WineDirect

    WineDirect offers RESTful APIs on its current platform and an older SOAP API on Classic. Credentials for the current platform come from WineDirect's partnerships team, and the Volty team sets Volty up with them as a custom connection.

    1. 01

      Confirm your WineDirect platform

      Current platform or Classic decides which API Volty uses. On Classic, a site admin sets up a webservice account in the WineDirect admin panel.

    2. 02

      Request API credentials

      On the current platform, WineDirect's partnerships team issues them.

    3. 03

      Approve in Volty

      An admin approves the connection once before members are answered from it.

    4. 04

      Switch on what you want

      Reading tools can be On. Address changes and skips start Off and can run as Check with staff.

    The tools Volty gets

    Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

    • Find club memberReads
    • Read club membership and next releaseReads
    • Read order shipmentReads
    • Change club ship-to addressChanges
    • Skip next releaseChanges

    Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes WineDirect starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.

    Common questions

    Does Volty work with WineDirect Classic or only the current platform?

    Both have an API. The current WineDirect platform uses RESTful APIs, with credentials issued by WineDirect's partnerships team. Classic uses a SOAP API, where a site admin sets up a webservice account in the WineDirect admin panel. Our team confirms which one you are on before setup.

    Can a club member skip a release through Volty?

    They can ask, and Volty drafts the skip on their WineDirect club membership. The skip tool starts Off. Most wineries run it as Check with staff, so the club team approves each one before Volty confirms it to the member.

    What does Volty read from a club member's WineDirect record?

    What the winery agrees to share when Volty is set up. Usually that is the member's club tier, next release date, bottle count, ship address and recent order shipments. Payment details can be left out, and Volty only looks up the member matched to the person in the conversation.

    How much does it cost to connect WineDirect with Volty?

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
