Sell direct to the consumer. Zero commission, no middlemen. With the only Guarantee on the market that converts hesitant buyers — and sells 6 bottles at a time.
The biggest barrier to buying wine online is the fear of getting it wrong — opening a bottle and not liking it, with no way back. The VSM Guarantee removes that fear entirely.
The buyer can open one bottle. If they don't like it, they return the other five. A simple promise that converts hesitant browsers into buyers.
✦ For you as a winery, the actual return rate in this model is under 3%. Online wine buyers choose carefully — the guarantee is there to build confidence, not to be exercised.
One order = 6 bottles
If the buyer dislikes the open bottle, they return the five intact. For you — 6 bottles sold upfront; worst case, 5 come back.
No other Portuguese marketplace offers this guarantee. It's the most powerful sales argument you can have — it doesn't come from you, it comes from the platform. Converts hesitant buyers who would never purchase elsewhere.
VSM exclusiveThe price you set is the price you receive. Every bottle sold stays 100% in your pocket. No percentages given to the marketplace, no hidden margins, no surprises at month end.
100% of each sale is yoursBuilding and maintaining an online store with real traffic costs time and money — SEO, ads, social media. At VSM, promotion is a combined effort: the platform invests in marketplace marketing, and each winery contributes by sharing their wines and VSM page with their own audience. Together we reach further than any one winery alone.
Joint effort, greater visibilityConsumers trust wineries that are part of a platform with clear rules and a real guarantee. Being on VSM is a signal of quality and confidence — the buyer knows they can purchase risk-free.
Trust transferred to your wineryThe 6-bottle order model isn't accidental. A case of 6 is the minimum volume that makes logistical sense — and maximises the value of each sale. One transaction, six bottles, one single shipment.
Maximised immediate revenueNo technical integration, no code, no onboarding meetings. Fill in a form, upload your photos and wines, and you're live. Manage stock directly from the dashboard — pause, update prices, add references.
