Standard Wine Club Workflow
This is the basic workflow for processing a Standard Wine Club Shipment, also know as and Wine Club Event. Remix and Custom Club information can be found elsewhere in the Help Center.
Prior to each wine club release, review and confirm EACH item below to ensure a smooth and worry-free allocation event.
Review this article on Club Overview and Terminology, especially if this is your first time setting up a club shipment, or if you only do it occasionally
Note: When preparing for a wine club event always have a test tier to use with each event to simulate your upcoming event. Then, by using your own customer account assigned into the Test Tier, the event details can be confirmed for the release without allowing access to customers.
