Cellar door bookings by phone, club members on a spreadsheet and trade orders by email. We build booking and club systems for cideries.

Looking for cidery cellar door and club software?

Cideries sell at the cellar door, online and to trade. We build the bookings, the cider club and the ordering to tie them together.

Wollopit builds online stores, subscriptions, wholesale portals and websites for cideries around how you actually make and sell. We connect the tools you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back to making the good stuff.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your cidery: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things cideries ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can club members pick their own cider mix?

Yes. Members can customise shipments within the rules you set.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your cidery. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Can you work with our existing online store?

Usually, yes. We can add subscriptions, wholesale ordering or better freight to what you've got. If it's holding you back we'll tell you honestly whether a rebuild makes more sense.

Can retail and wholesale share the same stock?

Yes. One stock count feeds your website, markets, cellar door or shopfront and trade orders, so you never sell what's already gone.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most cideries we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
