Microsoft + anybill

Microsoft Corporation is a leading global technology company headquartered in Redmond, Washington. Founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen, Microsoft specializes in developing, selling, and supporting a wide range of software products, hardware devices, and services. The best-known products include the Windows operating system, office productivity software, the Azure cloud platform, the Surface device family and Xbox game consoles. Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every company worldwide to achieve more.

Working with anybill

Microsoft Corporation, headquartered in Redmond, Washington, has developed software, hardware and services since Bill Gates and Paul Allen founded the company in 1975 – including Windows, Office, the Azure cloud platform, the Surface device family and Xbox. Retail and hospitality sites that run workplaces on Windows, Surface or Azure can add anybill as the digital receipt at the till, without replacing the operating system, productivity software or cloud.

The mission to empower every person and every company to achieve more describes the platform ambition, not a ready-made till suite. anybill starts at receipt issue: less thermal paper at the station, while Windows, Office, Azure, Surface and Xbox remain the products Microsoft develops, sells and supports.

Who this is for

This is for companies whose store and till IT runs on Windows, Surface or Azure and who already use Office or other Microsoft services day to day. Anyone who wants a digital in-store slip without touching the product family begun in Redmond in 1975 can plan anybill as an opt-in touchpoint at checkout.

Value in brick-and-mortar retail

In the shop there is less paper at a till that can run on Microsoft technology in the broad sense – a Windows workplace, Surface or an Azure link – plus a digital contact after the purchase. Software, hardware and cloud services stay with the Redmond company; the anybill receipt sits on the smartphone.

Windows, Office, Azure, Surface and Xbox stay the familiar products Microsoft has developed, sold and supported from Redmond since 1975. anybill is not an operating system or a cloud; it is the digital receipt at tills that can run on that software and hardware landscape – in the spirit of empowering companies to achieve more, without calling Xbox or Surface a cash register.
