Webwinkel Vakdagen 2018
This year we are also on the largest eCommerce trade fair in the Benelux: the Webwinkel Vakdagen. This twelfth edition will be held this week, on Wednesday 24 and Thursday 25 January in the Jaarbeurs of Utrecht.
Visit our stand
You can find us at booth 261 in the middle of hall 7 right next to the catering terrace.
We continuously provide personal demos of Picqer. So if you have questions about Picqer, or if you want to see how Picqer can work in your warehouse, come and visit us!
Of course we also like it when you just say hello.
Our partners
Also a lot of partners are present on the Webwinkel Vakdagen. We have created a map so you can find us and our partners.

Access to the Webwinkel Vakdagen is free! Order your free tickets.
We look forward to see you at the Webwinkel Vakdagen!
Picqer Mobile 1.9.2 now available
We have a great update of our Picqer Mobile app for you. The iOS app with which you can pick easily and paperless in your warehouse.
In this update we bring you a couple of small improvements:
- If you play music in another app, the music will keep playing while you pick products.
- When receiving a purchase order, we now also save the user that handled the receipt.
- If you use a single warehouse, we hide the name of that warehouse.
- Sometimes we showed an empty grey bar at the top of the page, we fixed that.
- We update information on the product page earlier, so you always see the most recent information.
- If you search for a product we now show the right image.
Version 1.9.2 is now available in the App Store.

Growth 2017
You can also see in comparison with 2016 the growth we experienced in 2017. Thanks to the new webshops that started using Picqer and the growth of our existing customers, we have processed three times as many orders in 2017. We expect even more growth in orders for 2018 and we are continuously working on to prepare our platform for this future growth.
PostNL's PakjeGemak within Magento 2
Good news for users of Magento 2 who ship with PostNL. We now support PakjeGemak for Magento 2.
Together with TIG, the developer of the official PostNL plugin, we ensured that you do not need an extra Picqer plugin anymore, as it is necessary for Magento 1. This makes setting up PakjeGemak even easier. Only install the PostNL plugin from TIG and we will take care of the rest.
PostNL direct
We support PakjeGemak directly via PostNL. You can use the official PostNL plugin of TIG.
Interview with Sonja Kastermans of Fietsparadijs
Sonja and Koen Kastermans started calmly with their Fietsparadijs webshops. But when their whole house was full of stock they had to take the next step and move to a dedicated location. "Thanks to Picqer we did not ship an order too late after we moved to a new location. Without Picqer I could not have done that" says Sonja. She shows us their new warehouse in Beverwijk.
We spoke to Sonja about the growth and relocation of their warehouse.
