The full cost picture

What you actually pay, line by line.

VineSeat is the only line we set. Stripe processes the card and takes its standard rate; affiliate channels (if you use them) take their own cut per agreement.

VineSeat subscription

Per location. Same price whether you do 50 bookings a month or 5,000.

$200 / mo

VineSeat per-booking

Flat 2% on the booking total. Same rate on every channel — direct, marketplace, or referral.

2%

Stripe processing

Charged through your own Stripe Connect account. Standard rate — VineSeat doesn't touch it.

2.9% + $0.30

Affiliate channel

If you activate a referral partner (e.g. a WCM channel), they set their own commission. Optional and controlled by you.

Varies

On a $200 booking, that's $4.00 to VineSeat + $6.10 to Stripe — a ~5% effective rate, dropping toward 3% on larger tickets.

No consumer fees

Your price is the price.No surprises at checkout.

Other platforms tack on $4–$8 booking fees that hit your guest at checkout — fees you don't see until your most loyal club member calls to complain. We don't do that. The price you set is the price your guest pays.

FAQ

Pricing questions, answered.

Is there a setup fee or contract?
Neither. VineSeat is month-to-month. You can cancel anytime — no penalties, no clawbacks.
What does Stripe charge me?
Stripe charges its standard 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction. VineSeat doesn't touch it — Stripe pulls it directly through your own Stripe Connect account, where you're the merchant of record. The processing fee shows up on your Stripe statement, not ours.
What's included in the free trial?
Every feature, for 14 days. No credit card required to start. You can take real bookings during the trial — we just don't charge subscription fees until day 15.
Do you take a commission on wine sales or add-ons?
Only on the booking transaction itself (deposit, tasting fee, add-ons sold through the booking flow). Wine club sales, retail, and on-site purchases that happen outside the reservation are entirely yours.
What happens to my commission if a guest cancels?
Refunds follow your cancellation policy. When a refund is issued, our 2% commission is refunded proportionally — you only pay commission on revenue you actually keep.
Do you support multiple locations?
Yes. Each location is its own partner account at $200/mo. Subscriptions, settings, and reports are independent per location — but team members can switch between them from one login.
What about affiliate or referral channels?
If you activate a referral partner (e.g. a WCM site like NapaValley.com or Sonoma.com), they take their own commission on top of our 2% per the agreement you set with them. Their rate is yours to negotiate; ours stays flat at 2%.
Who owns the chargeback if a guest disputes a charge?
You do. Because charges run through your own Stripe Connect account, you're the merchant of record — disputes land with you, not VineSeat. We surface dispute notifications in your dashboard and help you respond.
