Article summary

Apps are integrations that can be used to extend the core functionality of WineDirect. They can give you extra analytics, integrate with other platforms, help you run marketing, and various other features. The App Marketplace allows you to easily search for apps and install them with a single click. Each listing provides features to determine an app's suitability for your store. Although some apps may require a subscription, many will offer a free trial period or may be entirely free.

You can browse apps using the category drop-down or search by keyword or the name of a specific app.
