What Veloyd does
Veloyd B.V. is a privately held Dutch software company, founded in 2018 (with roots in a 2014 internal tool) and headquartered at Klokgebouw 157 in Eindhoven, Netherlands. The company provides a cloud-based Transport Management System (TMS) and shipping platform built specifically for urban logistics. Its core product combines route optimization, a courier mobile app with proof-of-delivery capture, multi-channel order intake (webshop integrations, API, CSV), branded Track & Trace, a multi-carrier shipping platform, vehicle and occupancy management, and accounting-linked administration and reporting. The platform is delivered as a web application accessible from any device, with a dedicated courier mobile app, an open API documented at app.veloyd.nl/apidoc, and more than 50 native integrations spanning webshops (WooCommerce, Shopify, Lightspeed, Magento, Bol.com), parcel carriers (DHL, PostNL, GLS, DPD, Cycloon, Peddler, Skynet, and regional carriers), pharmacy information systems (Pharmacom, Recept Locatie, Apotheek Voorzorg, Loxis, SPITS), and accounting platforms (AFAS, Jortt, WeFact, Exact Online).
Veloyd operates a per-active-courier SaaS model with two published tiers — Courier Standard at €45/license/month and Courier Plus at €65/license/month — supplemented by usage-based per-shipment fees on external carriers and custom pricing for pharmacy system integrations. Webshop integrations are provided free of charge to lower adoption friction. Go-to-market combines self-serve onboarding via the website with sales-assisted demo-led engagement for larger accounts. The company serves urban logistics carriers, e-commerce retailers, pharmacies, retail own-delivery operations, express couriers, maintenance and service organizations, and city hubs, with named customers including Groenbezorgen, MSG, and Velocity & NGS. Veloyd is bootstrapped, owned by founders Chris and Mark (with Jeroen rejoining as co-lead in 2023), and reports platform scale of 2,000+ customers, 700+ active couriers, 132,000+ planned stops, 210,000+ optimized kilometers, and 104,000+ parcels shipped per month.

Revenue model
- Courier Licensing: Subscription-based licensing model where customers pay a monthly fee per active courier license. Two tiers: Courier Standard (€45/license/month) and Courier Plus (€65/license/month). Pricing grows with the number of active couriers, aligning costs with customer revenue streams.
- Per-Shipment Unit Pricing: Unit price charged per shipment sent via external carriers through Veloyd's shipping platform. Costs for third-party surcharges (e.g., carrier surcharges) are passed through to the customer. This is an additional variable revenue stream beyond the base license.
- Pharmacy System Integrations: Pharmacy information system integrations (e.g., Pharmacom, Recept Locatie) are priced on request, suggesting a custom/enterprise pricing model for specialized vertical integrations.
