Figures show the percentage fee on managed club order value only (Winehub around 1.75% to 2%), on top of each platform's monthly base. Winehub also requires a Shopify plan and Shopify's own payment fees; both exclude card-processing fees. Winehub's plans and percentages change, so check winehub.io/pricing before relying on these.

“Marzipan is ongelooflijk eenvoudig in gebruik, en uiterst flexibel en configureerbaar. Het maakt terugkerende abonnementswijnclubs veel eenvoudiger dan elk ander systeem dat ik heb gebruikt, en het verwerkt vrijwel alles wat we het hebben gegeven.”
