Product updates

Every release of the web app and the store builds, with what changed.

2 September 2026V 2.3
Membership, verified entry and the company page

WineGate is now a closed market. A company registers, applies with its VAT number, and our staff approve the application before it can see prices or list stock. Access starts with a 7-day free trial of WineGate Membership, the single plan at €99 a month or €990 a year.

Every company now has a public page at winegate.app/@handle with its live lots and prices, and can export its stock as a PDF, CSV or Excel price list. Messages moved into one hub with attachments and a third party in the thread, and WG Assistant can now change the price or validity of your lots by chat.
