Winevizer is a digital solution for restaurants and wine bars that allows them to create an interactive wine list accessible via QR code or tablet. It includes a virtual sommelier that guides customers in their choices, enhances their experience, and facilitates the daily management of the wine list for establishments.

Can we create special menus or seasonal selections?
Simply disable a wine in the administration interface. It will then be hidden from the wine list without being deleted. You can easily reactivate it once it is back in stock. A connection to your cash register or POS system is possible to automate this process.
Not at the moment, but you can analyze your usage statistics to see where your card could be improved.
No, no specific equipment is required. A simple smartphone with a camera is sufficient to scan QR codes. If you wish to use tablets, Winevizer is compatible with all common models (Android or iOS).

Depending on your current solution, integrations are possible. We can connect Winevizer to certain POS or management systems to synchronize inventory or sales. Contact us to check compatibility with your setup.
An Internet connection is recommended for QR codes to work and for tablets to display up-to-date data. However, a preloaded version on the tablet can be considered in case of network outages.

Defines the venue: Restaurant, Wine bar, Event (fair, tasting), or Shop. This drives some tab visibility and feature availability (e.g., the intro screen only shows for “Event”, the wine-bar mode only shows for relevant types).
Currency (EUR, CHF, USD, GBP, NOK, PHP, HUF) is the symbol applied on every price. Position decides whether the symbol comes before (e.g. $25) or after (e.g. 25 €). French convention: after. Anglo-Saxon convention: before.
Yes/No toggle that displays a top bar on the digital card with your logo, name and address. Disable for a more minimal look or when your branding lives elsewhere on the venue.
A rendering hint: if your logo is designed for a white background, set Yes — it will be wrapped in a white block in the title bar to preserve contrast. Otherwise it will be rendered as-is over the bar background.
Three options: “Show title” (text name), “Show logo” (your image instead of text), or “Hide title bar” (no header at all, more space for the wine list).
Upload a custom image rendered behind the title/logo of the digital card (dining room photo, vineyard, mood shot…). Wide and uncluttered formats work best to preserve text legibility.
Tick each language (FR, EN, NL, DE, IT, ES…) you want active. The customer can switch between them via a flag menu on the card. Free-text content (welcome message, button label, descriptions) must exist in each enabled language.
When English is enabled, you pick the flag rendered: 🇺🇸 (US), 🇬🇧 (UK), or a hybrid. Match your dominant clientele (US tourists, UK travelers, both).
Language shown on first card load. “Automatic” detects the customer’s browser language (recommended for international clientele). Otherwise force FR, EN, NL, etc. The customer can always switch manually.
Security on the in-room tablet: this 6-digit PIN protects access to the admin mode of the tablet app (settings, exit kiosk mode). On the tablet, tap 3 times on the logo to open the PIN prompt. Prevents curious customers from changing settings.
6 layouts for the digital card home screen: 1) Wines only, 2) Beers only, 3) Wines highlighted with other drinks below, 4) Beers highlighted with others below, 5) All drink types at same level (others grouped), 6) All types same level (one tab per type). Pick based on your dominant offer.
Activates a wine-bar-specific entry pattern: by-the-glass list is highlighted on the home screen (with two funnel sub-options).
In wine-bar mode, choose: 1) Direct view of the by-the-glass list, or 2) Classic funnel (pairing, preferences) before the list. Option 1 = faster, option 2 = more guided for hesitant customers.
The 3 main entry buttons of the digital card (Food pairing, Taste profile, Browse the list) each have an uploadable icon. Use the Winevizer defaults or upload your own (PNG/SVG recommended) for brand consistency.
Below each entry icon, a short multilingual label explains what the button does. Defaults: “Find a pairing”, “By my taste”, “Browse the list”. Customize per enabled language to match your tone.
Free multilingual text shown on the digital card home, below the entry buttons. Ideal for: welcome message, current promo, sommelier signature, practical info (hours, special event).
Add an extra call-to-action button on the home screen (e.g. “Book a table” → TheFork link, “Our website” → your site). Multilingual label, single link.
If filled, clickable Facebook/Instagram icons appear on the digital card (footer or home depending on design). Saves the customer from searching. Leave empty to hide the icons.
Enables/disables the food-wine pairing funnel on the digital card (customer picks a dish → sommelier suggests matching wines). Disable if you only want browse-mode without guided assistant.
Enables/disables the taste-profile funnel (3-4 preference questions → wine suggestions). Complementary to the food-pairing funnel.
4 visual designs for the tablet card: 1) Digital (modern interactive), 2) Paper – Style 1 (typographic, paper-like), 3) Paper – Style 2, 4) Paper – Style 3. Paper styles fit fine-dining venues that want a classic presentation.
When enabled, wines tagged “by-the-glass” appear in a dedicated section at the top of the card (in addition to their usual color/region section). Great to highlight a small by-the-glass selection.
On paper-style designs (1-3), pick the title font (e.g. Playfair, The Seasons, Libre Baskerville for a classic feel) and the body font (e.g. Roboto, Montserrat for a modern feel). Mix to match your brand.
Custom accent color on paper designs (titles, separators, framed boxes). Pick consistent with your brand identity (burgundy, gold, deep green…).
Activates a first page of the paper-style card with a background image, your logo and a tagline text. Like a book cover. The customer “opens” the card to access the wine list. Reinforces the premium / artisanal feel.
On the customer wine list, shows or hides a quick filter by color (red / white / rosé / sparkling…) on top of the tab navigation. Redundant if your primary sort is already by color.
Defines how wines are grouped/ranked into tabs and sections. Main options: by color, by region, color > country, color > country > appellation, country > color > appellation, by style, style > color, region > color, country > color, color > style, color > grape, country > region. Match your card logic.
When your sort uses country, you can force region subdivision for select countries (FR, IT, CH). E.g. instead of “Italy” as a block, you get Tuscany, Piedmont, Veneto, etc. — typical for detailed Italian or Swiss cards.
Shows or hides the Vivino star rating (community average) on wine cards. Show = transparency and trust; hide = avoid putting too much weight on an external score.
Shows or hides the bottle photo on the list and wine card. Show = visual, more engaging; hide = compact list, faster to scan on a large card.
Shows or hides the grape list (Cabernet, Merlot, Chardonnay…) on customer-facing wine cards. Useful for connoisseurs; hide for a cleaner mass-market card.
Multi-select of filters exposed to the customer above the list: text search, price, type, style, producer, pairing, dish, country, region, grape, aroma, label. More filters = more flexibility but busier UI. Pick what makes sense for your card.
Reorder by drag & drop the appearance order of wine colors/types (e.g. Sparkling first, then Whites, Reds, Rosés…) and countries (France first, then Italy, etc.). Reflects your commercial logic or your card’s dominant origin.
For France and Switzerland, manually order regions (Bordeaux before Burgundy, or vice versa). Useful when your card highlights a specific region (e.g. a Bordelais bistro → Bordeaux first).
Rename wine type labels shown to customers: “White” can become “Dry Whites”, “Red” can become “Southern Reds”, “Sparkling” can become “Bubbles”, etc. Adapt vocabulary to your card or clientele.
Each toggle decides whether the wine card shows: producer/winery story, grape variety explanations, and region context. Enable for storytelling and education; disable for shorter cards.
Displays a small geographic map pinpointing the producer or region. Appreciated for foreign wines or lesser-known regions.
Shows a “Contains sulfites” mention (or other detected allergen) on the wine card. Mandatory under EU regulation in several countries — recommended to enable.
Choose between displaying the degree as ° (12.5°) or as % (12.5%). French convention: °. International / official labels: %. Match your market.
When enabled, beers get their own module with specific fields (brew style, IBU, brewery, pint/glass/bottle containers) and appear in a dedicated section. Disabled = beers handled with other drinks under a generic category.
Activate funnels equivalent to wine pairing/taste, but for beers (preferred color, bitterness level, style: IPA, Lager, Stout…). Useful for craft breweries or beer-centric venues.
Default sort = initial order (Name alphabetical or Price ascending). Collapsed by default = subcategories rendered closed on first load; the customer taps to expand. Both speed up scanning on large cards.
When enabled, dishes appear as a navigable section on the digital card with their own filters (category, price, allergens, suggested wine pairings). When disabled, dishes are only used behind the scenes for food-wine pairings.
For the “Event” venue type (fair, tasting, expo), a fullscreen intro shows on QR scan: event photo, multilingual welcome message, date/place. Customer taps to enter the card. Reinforces the “unique moment” feel.
