For winemakers, wineries and Heurige in Austria
Wine from the farm, around the clock: legally permissible with Click & Collect.
Selling alcohol from a vending machine is banned under § 52 (2) GewO. With Click & Collect your customers buy online; the machine at the farm hands out only after the age check. Legal basis: every letter in full (German)
We are looking for the first wineries – no software or licence fees, you only pay for the hardware. We are early, and the system is flexible: whatever your business needs, we build it in.
We run vending machines in Vienna ourselves; the check runs there every day. For wineries we connect it with selling from the farm.
How it works
-
Wine at the machine: buy online, collect at the farm
Your customers order and pay online; the machine at the farm hands out after the age check.
Look for the chip symbol: passports and ID cards with this symbol carry the chip we read – for 112 issuing states, including all 27 EU states.
- Buy onlinePayment is online, by card. The sale happens online, not at the machine (§ 52 (2) GewO).
- Send to the machineOne click sends the order to your machine.
- Confirm ageAnyone may buy. Only someone aged 18+ may collect: with their own passport, ID card or ID Austria, matched to their face.
- CollectThe compartment opens. Paid, checked, handed over.

The farm shop without staff
The door opens for whoever showed their ID – adults only if you wish.
- Show your ID oncePassport, ID card or ID Austria, plus the face match – at the door, with nobody from the farm present.
- Then by faceRegulars get in next time without ID.
- 18+ only if you wishOnly adults open the door. To be honest: whoever opens can bring someone along – we check who opens the door.
- Who was inside?Every door opening with person and time. What is stored and for how long, we agree with you.

Questions
- Is this allowed?
- Selling from the machine is banned under § 52 (2) GewO. With Click & Collect your customer buys online; the machine hands out only after the age check. Hence: legally permissible with Click & Collect. Legal basis (German)
- I already have a wine machine.
- If it has an MDB interface, we retrofit reader and camera.
- What does it cost?
- There are no software or licence fees; you only pay for the hardware – and we discuss that openly with you.
- Does it work for …?
- Yes. Every business needs something different – guest forms, shift times, age limits, its own locks. Tell us what you need; it is usually quick to build.
