The faster way to sell more wine

With 620 merchants across the Liv-ex wine trading platform – and their customers – searching 24/7 for your wine, Liv-ex offers the fastest and easiest way to sell. You list anonymously and when your wine is sold, we ensure quick and efficient payment.

Trade with confidence

Standardised contracts mean you know exactly what to expect when your wine is delivered. Our most-used contract states that wine is in perfect condition, in bond, and available within two weeks. Anything else is clearly specified, and photos are often available. We manage the trade and ensure that buyers and sellers stay committed for your peace of mind.

Dedicated support

As a Liv-ex member you get your own Account Manager who’s there to help you make the most of your membership. They can help you to find the best buying and selling opportunities and guide you through our various products and services.

Settlement made simple

Logistics and payment can be complicated – especially if you want to maximise sales by doing business with a large number of customers and suppliers.

All trade on Liv-ex is supported by a safe, easy and cost-efficient international transport network. We collect and deliver across Europe – including Beaune for easy access to the Americas – and Hong Kong at a low for a low fee with no minimum quantities. All payments and deliveries are made quickly to and from Liv-ex to keep your accounting and logistics simple and safe.

Double your trade value

Merchants who use Liv-ex’s trading APIs typically trade 2-3 times more by value than non-automated members. Liv-ex APIs enable you to connect your system with ours. You can use them list your stock on Liv-ex’s trading platform automatically – straight from your own system – or offer Liv-ex stock to customers directly through your ecommerce website.
