Q&As

How does it work?

VINPay is available to all verified and registered buyers and sellers responsible for the legal ownership and transfer of a wine. All buyers must register with VINPay and have a pre-approved credit limit. All transactions operate under a rolling agreement, between you, the seller and VINPay. All invoices are settled in the supplier’s major currency, either EUR or GBP. 

Payment of all invoices must be made to VINPay by electronic transfer, on or before the agreed due date in cleared funds. 

If you extend an invoice’s payment due date by +60 days, an extension fee is payable.

A minimum +60D fee of €300 (or your equivalent currency) applies.  

1.  Wines purchased through the exchange

• All wines purchased through VINEX can now be settled through VINPay, provided you have a pre-approved credit limit. Suppliers agree to pay one Settlement Fee which is deducted from the advance payment they receive, being 80% of their invoice in 3 days of dispatching wine, with the balance paid in 3 days of the invoice due date (being either 60, 90 or 120 days from dispatch).
• You have the option to extend each invoice’s payment terms by +60 days.
• If no VINPay credit limit is available, then transactions cannot be settled through VINPay, and the supplier will be required to offer to you a separate payment arrangement.  

2.  Wines purchased directly, from current or new suppliers

• All wines purchased by you directly from your existing supply partners can be settled through VINPay, provided you have a pre-approved credit limit and your supplier agrees.
• In addition to you negotiating an earlier payment purchase price, you also have the option to extend each invoice’s payment payment up to 150 days.  

How am I protected, making sure I receive the wine that I approved?

It remains the supplier’s responsibility to deliver the wine as per a rolling agreement. VINPay also requires a signed Proof of Acceptance following each delivery - for export purchases your acceptance of a pre-dispatch sample (prior to your supplier loading the wine).
