Allowing In-Person/Onsite Shipping Orders (While Restricting Web Orders)

Depending on your Compliance/State regulations, you may be able to ship to restricted states if it's an Onsite Order

Certain states permit shipping to restricted states if the Customer places their order in person (onsite) at your winery or tasting room.

Example:

  • Your state and/or compliance licensing does not allow you to ship to Michigan. 
  • But if the Customer places the Order onsite while visiting, then you are allowed to ship their wine to Michigan.
  • Consequently, you need a way to disable shipping to Michigan via online Orders - while still allowing your POS or Admin staff to process onsite Orders that are shipping to Michigan.

Here's how:

  1. Go to Settings > Operating Countries.
