### 1/5 — Horrible fees, horrible liquidity, horrible user interface

*2026-02-01, version 1.44.0*

Impossible to turn a profit unless you pick that 1 in 1000 wine that goes parabolic due to the ridiculous fees, and don’t think about getting them shipped unless you own a full case so if theres no liquidity for the wine you buy you have no option but to sell super low.

### 1/5 — Complete scam, money trap

*2026-01-02, version 1.44.0*

Do not bother with this app or “asset class”. All of your investment will be trapped indefinitely. You cannot sell your wine, even at a significant discount. You cannot realistically ship wines to yourself - they charge you $800+ for a few cases. Unbelievable scam.

### 1/5 — Zero customer support or liquidity.

*2025-12-08, version 1.44.0*

They make the selling process impossible so you keep paying their stupid fee (on top of the transaction fee they charge you) I have never called support and been connectef with an agent. I have been wanting my money out of this scam for a year and I still haven’t.

### 1/5 — On the way out

*2025-11-26, version 1.44.0*

I think Vinovest days are numbered. The app has not seen any meaningful updates in a long time and is borderline unusable. Everything about Vinovest is about as bad as it gets for investing in wine.

### 1/5 — They’re kinda thieves

*2025-11-06, version 1.44.0*

They do anything they can to keep your money, and when you try to sell and close your account, they’ll price it to where it drags on so they can keep taking your monthly fee. Lost $2k just trying this out to see how it goes. I’d highly recommend avoiding. Even if you did do long term (say 15 years), the money they’d make off your monthly fee basically erases your profit

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-10-16, version 1.44.0*

Run!!! This app steals your money….. don’t download and certainly don’t “invest” they steal your money after you transfer funds in and they refuse to allow you to withdraw… needs to be looked into for potential crime!!! DO NOT USE THIS APP!!!! RUN

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-07-21, version 1.42.1*

The UI and functionality of both the website and app are downright terrible. Seems like they have given up on this platform.

### 1/5 — Run!

*2025-07-01, version 1.42.1*

Update: July 2025. My resolve that is company is a scam has only grown. They keep charging monthly fees, and the value of my “investment” has only decreased. While inflation and the markets are at record highs.
Stay away from this terrible product and platform. You will never come across a worse investment platform.

### 1/5 — Don’t do this. All the fees make your investment worthless

*2025-07-01, version 1.42.1*

I really liked the idea of this. But now when trying to sell. It’s been almost a year and no sell and during this time they keep charging me fees. Terrible business imo

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-04-14, version 1.39.1*

Do not invest with Vinovest. You will never see your money again. I have been trying to withdraw my funds for over a month with no luck. DO NOT DO IT. It’s not worth it.
