Onderschatten we vandaag nog hoe fundamenteel retail, e-commerce en klantgedrag de komende jaren zullen veranderen? Ik denk van wel. Daarom brachten we voor het eerst vier experten samen rond één tafel om te bespreken wat er op ons afkomt, welke opportuniteiten dat creëert en vooral: waar je vandaag al mee kunt starten om je merk future proof te maken.

Geen AI-hype of vage toekomstverhalen, maar concrete inzichten die je helpen vandaag betere keuzes te maken voor de toekomst van je bedrijf.

Luister naar het volledige gesprek via de link in bio of je favoriete podcastapp! Ideaal ook voor wanneer je deze week onderweg bent naar .fashionfestival ;-)

Deze aflevering kwam tot stand in betaalde samenwerking met & .agency

🌟 2025, what a year! 🌟

Not only the year dear digital celebrated five years of existence, but also the year we leveled up in almost every way.

✨ Moved into our own office in Ghent
✨ Became an Odoo Gold Partner
✨ Kicked off our Walloon chapter
✨ Grew to 55+ people
✨ Travelled al over the world for conferences and weddings 🥂

And the best part? We had a lot of fun doing it.

What next year will bring? Let’s just say... stay tuned 😉

No doubt there will be some Jeune Premier bags under the Christmas tree 🎄🎁

But what about those who are looking beyond the new, and open to the charm of second-hand luxury?

💡 In this case study, we explore how the Second Life app we developed for Jeune Premier creates a win-win-win scenario: for the brand, for the planet, and for smart shoppers.

We got featured in Trends-Tendances 🤩

In this interview, our Managing Director Wallonie Emmanuel explains how we're becoming one of the key partners helping companies scale with Odoo, and why our expansion into Wallonia & France is so important.

A few highlights from the article:

✨ The Odoo ecosystem is booming (now valued at €5B+) and demand for strong partners is higher than ever
✨ We're one of the fastest-growing Odoo integrators in Belgium
✨ Companies choose us because we're more than a implementator: we own the change, helping teams adopt Odoo and Shopify effectively

A big thank you to Trends-Tendances for the feature, and to all clients who trust us with their transformation journeys - thank you for helping us grow!

Vamos! 🚀

In Part 2 of our Shopify Pricing Deep Dive, we break down how Shopify Payments actually works - and why transaction fees often have a bigger impact on margins than the monthly subscription itself 💸

Whether you use Shopify Payments or a third-party provider like Mollie, Stripe, or PayPal, the total cost per order can vary a lot.
Understanding that difference is key if you're scaling.

In this blog we cover:
✅ how Shopify Payments fees work per plan
✅ what Shopify charges when you use external providers
✅ the exception for Shopify Plus
✅ when a third-party payment provider still makes sense

If you want clarity on your payment fees and especially how they impact your bottom line, this one is worth a read! 👇

Discover how Shopify Payments actually works, why Shopify pushes merchants toward it, how fees differ per plan, and what happens with a third-party provider.
