We've been developing business software for 30 years. Since 2021, LS Retail has been part of the Aptos group of companies, in which we operate as an independent unit. Aptos and LS Retail are owned by the merchant banking division of Goldman Sachs, one of the world's largest managers of private capital.
LS Retail has been developing business software for 30 years and, since 2021, has operated as an independent unit inside the Aptos group, which together with LS Retail is owned by the merchant banking division of Goldman Sachs. Retailers who run that business software can add anybill as the digital receipt at the till – without changing the Aptos membership or the independent unit.
Three decades of software development and the 2021 move into Aptos describe the frame in which store processes are steered. anybill starts at receipt issue: less thermal paper at the station, while the business software still comes from LS Retail and the ownership through Goldman Sachs merchant banking stays as stated.
This is for companies that use retail business software built over 30 years and, since 2021, treat LS Retail as an independent unit in the Aptos context. Anyone who wants a digital checkout without touching group or ownership structure can plan anybill as an opt-in touchpoint on the in-store slip.
On the shop floor there is less paper at the till that runs on LS Retail’s 30-year business software, plus a digital contact after the purchase. Aptos and the independent unit remain the organisational frame since 2021; the anybill receipt sits on the smartphone, not on the roll beside the terminal.
Since 2021 LS Retail has been part of the Aptos group and still operates there as an independent unit; Aptos and LS Retail are owned by Goldman Sachs merchant banking, one of the world’s large private-capital managers. anybill does not touch that ownership or group structure; it only touches receipt issue on the business software developed for 30 years.
Anyone running LS Retail as store control software can treat the digital slip as an optional output – beside the Aptos membership, not as a new group product.
