GS1 + anybill

GS1 barcodes are scanned over six billion times a day and are the universal standard in global trade. The 24 standards in over 20 industries are the global language for efficient and secure business processes that apply across company borders and continents.

Working with anybill

GS1 barcodes are scanned more than six billion times a day and are the universal standard in global trade; anybill can attach the digital receipt to that same language of 24 standards in more than 20 industries. Efficient, secure processes across company borders and continents stay the GS1 frame. Retailers can use anybill so the scan is not followed only by a paper slip. anybill is not a new barcode standard — a join to master data and item data, not a till gadget.

Because the 24 standards are the global language for processes, anybill can bind first-party data from the purchase to identifiers that already hold across continents. Purchase Intelligence stays the transaction layer; GS1 stays the standard. No exclusive certification or live connector is claimed — the receipt can document the scanned world digitally.

Who this is for

GS1 is for companies in more than 20 industries whose processes use the 24 standards and the universal barcode — from the scan across company borders. Master-data and IT teams can plan anybill when the digital receipt should speak that same global language. Anyone who works every day in the world of six billion scans does not need a second identifier — a receipt layer on the standard they already have.

Retail groups and brands that steer secure processes across continents can think of GS1 for item identity and anybill for the in-store receipt. The audience is users of the global language, not a single printer without master data. anybill speaks to the purchase receipt, not to how the 24 standards themselves are written.

Value in brick-and-mortar retail

At the till the GS1 barcode is scanned; anybill can deliver less paper and an opt-in touchpoint while the universal standard identifies the item. Six billion scans a day show how ordinary the code is — the digital receipt can record that same moment. Efficient processes do not stop at the scanner if the receipt continues digitally.

In brick-and-mortar retail, 24 standards join store and supply chain across continents. anybill can keep the receipt digital so first-party data sit beside GS1’s global language. Less break between scan and receipt — that is the aisle value for industries that already use the universal standard.
