Customer case study: Van Beekum Specerijen: working with Pay since day one.

Family business Van Beekum Specerijen from Harderwijk has been operating since 1908 as a supplier of herbs and spices to butchers and sausage makers. The current generation began online sales directly to individuals in 2013 and did so from day one in cooperation with Pay. By now, online sales provide the majority of sales.

 

 

"In all these years, never had any breakdowns"

Chris van Beekhuizen, co-owner of Van Beekum spices about the cooperation: "Pay. Offers good links on almost all webshop platforms. The staff is quickly accessible and helps you well with questions and technical support. In addition, in all these years I have never had any failures and all payment methods are available."

Over time, quite a bit has changed under the hood of the online store. From the transition from Shoptrader to Lightspeed to the implementation of xCore to link the accounting software. Van Beekhuizen: "Pay. is familiar with all webshop systems and linking partners. That makes it easy for us to switch quickly. With Pay. it really is linked within minutes."

We switched to Lightspeed because it offered us more features, had better code, and was faster than our previous platform. The integration between Lightspeed, Pay., and our webshop works very well. We never experience any issues, and we were connected within just a few minutes.

Automating administration

Finally, Van Beekhuizen has a tip for other e-commerce entrepreneurs: “Make sure you inform yourself about the possibilities available to automate your administration. Automatic reconciliation, for example. Pay. offers the right solutions for this. It does not cost much and saves a tremendous amount of time.”
