My Next Wine for WooCommerce

Most wine websites work well when the shopper already knows what they want. My Next Wine helps everyone else.

The plugin adds a guided, theme-aware Wine Finder to your WooCommerce store. In four quick questions, shoppers choose a bottle mix and total budget, then describe any tastes, dislikes, food, gift or occasion they want considered.

My Next Wine builds a complete 1-to-12-bottle selection from the mapped wines currently available in your own catalogue.

What makes it different

Each eligible product is mapped to structured data about its wine, producer, country, region, subregion, grapes, style and concise notes. Recommendations therefore use more context than product titles and descriptions alone.

• Handles grapes, regions, styles, dislikes, meals, gifts and occasions in natural language.
• Keeps the requested red, white, sparkling and dessert mix within the total order budget.
• Recommends only mapped wines currently available from your store.
• Explains each bottle and clearly identifies compromises or alternatives.
• Lets shoppers swap or remove individual bottles without restarting.
• Adds selected products and quantities directly to the WooCommerce basket.
• Requires no shopper account or email address to show recommendations.
• Uses your existing basket and checkout, so you keep the customer relationship, payment and fulfilment.

Artificial intelligence interprets the shopper’s request. Structured catalogue data and deterministic checks enforce the bottle count, wine mix, budget and eligible product pool. At basket time, WooCommerce revalidates each product or variation, quantity, current price, stock and purchase eligibility.

Non-wine products can be excluded. The initial eligible catalogue is mapped or reviewed before the trial begins. The launcher, introduction and presentation can be configured for your storefront, and optional aggregate analytics can measure Wine Finder activity and attributed orders.

Pricing

The hosted My Next Wine service includes a 14-day free trial followed by EUR 29.99 per month plus applicable tax. There is no commission or per-order fee.

Subscription checkout and account management are hosted by Stripe. The trial begins only when the catalogue is ready and the merchant chooses to start it. Activating the plugin alone does not start the trial, create a charge or transmit store or catalogue data.

My Next Wine provides technology only. The merchant remains the seller of every wine and is responsible for alcohol licensing, age verification, product information and condition, payment, fulfilment, delivery, customer service, refunds and legal compliance.

External services

This plugin connects to the externally hosted My Next Wine service at https://mynextwine.ie. It cannot provide catalogue mapping, recommendations, reporting or order attribution without that service.

No store or catalogue information is transmitted merely because the plugin is installed or activated. Transmission begins only after an authorised administrator accepts the disclosure and connects the store from WooCommerce > My Next Wine.

At connection, the plugin sends:

• Store URL and name.
• WordPress administrator email.
• WooCommerce store address, phone, country/state, currency and locale.
• WordPress, WooCommerce and plugin versions.
• A generated installation identifier/secret and a short-lived ownership challenge.
• The accepted Merchant Terms version and acceptance time.

After connection, the plugin may send:

• Product and variation identifiers, SKUs, names, descriptions, images, categories, attributes, prices, currency, stock and availability.
• Shopper bottle mix, budget, wine preferences and food-pairing text when a recommendation is requested.
• Optional widget events such as impressions, opens, requests, results, swaps and basket attempts/outcomes. These are off by default. When the WordPress Consent API is available, they are sent only with positive statistics consent. When it is unavailable, enabling analytics confirms that the merchant has another lawful consent or privacy basis for these events. A successful basket addition is the only recommendation-usefulness signal; the widget does not ask shoppers to rate recommendations.
• For orders attributed to the Wine Finder: order identifier, currency, total, selected product/variation references and quantities.
• Technical request, replay-prevention and security metadata.

The plugin is not designed to send shopper names, customer email addresses, billing/delivery addresses or payment-card details to My Next Wine.

Stripe is used for merchant subscription billing. Stripe is contacted only after the merchant chooses to start the trial or manage the subscription. My Next Wine may provide Stripe with the merchant contact email and subscription metadata; the merchant submits billing and payment details directly on Stripe-hosted pages. Payment-card details are not sent through the WordPress plugin or stored by My Next Wine.

My Next Wine may use contracted hosting, database, monitoring, support, billing and artificial-intelligence providers, including Stripe for merchant subscription billing, to operate the service. Full information is available here:

Privacy

The plugin adds suggested wording to WordPress’s Privacy Policy Guide under Settings > Privacy. Merchants should review and include suitable wording in their own customer privacy notice, cookie notice and terms of sale.

Shopper preference answers are used to create the requested recommendation. For attributed orders, My Next Wine receives order and product references but not customer identity, address or payment-card data. Normal security logs may contain network or device metadata.

Uninstall removes local plugin settings and sends a best-effort service revocation request to My Next Wine. Uninstalling does not itself cancel the Stripe subscription; use Manage subscription in WooCommerce > My Next Wine before uninstalling. A merchant can also contact support@mynextwine.ie to request revocation, access, export or deletion, subject to legal retention requirements.
