compliance for small wineries, not enterprise overhead

Fifty states, fifty rulebooks — and they keep changing

  • Every state has its own volume limits, permits and tax rates; the 2025 changes moved the goalposts again.
  • One missed permit or wrong tax rate can put your direct-shipping license — and your DTC revenue — at risk.
  • Enterprise compliance tools are priced for big brands; a small winery ends up tracking it all in a spreadsheet.

State compliance, handled in the flow you already use

State-by-state rules matrix

Volume limits, permit requirements and shipping eligibility per state, kept current as regulations change.

Tax rates & permit tracking

Correct destination tax on every order and a live view of which permits you hold and when they renew.

Regulatory change alerts

When a state changes its rules, you hear about it before it holds up a shipment — no compliance officer required.

TTB label compliance

Label checks tied to each product, so what you ship matches what's approved. Traceability by batch is included.

Lite compliance for small wineries — not enterprise overhead

This is DTC shipping compliance sized for a small winery: the state rules, tax rates and permit tracking you actually need, inside the platform you already run. Not a bolt-on to a ShipCompliant-class enterprise suite — just the coverage a boutique operation needs to ship direct with confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Is this export software?+

For US wineries, no — it's DTC shipping compliance. Most small US wineries ship direct within the country, not abroad, so this add-on covers state rules, taxes, permits and TTB labels rather than export paperwork.

How is it different from ShipCompliant?+

It's lite compliance for small wineries: the state rules, tax rates and permit tracking you need, at a boutique-friendly price, inside the platform you already use for inventory and orders — not an enterprise suite.

Does it keep up with rule changes?+

Yes. State rules and tax rates are kept current, and you get alerts when a change affects where or how you can ship.

Ship direct to every state you're allowed to
