About the company
Who is Linx
Linx was born in Brazil in 1985, with software for retail. The first trademark filing in this story at INPI dates to 1969. In 2004, the registrations of LINX and GRUPO LINX arrived, names that came to appear behind the scenes at stores and supermarkets.
Anyone passing through a pharmacy or standing in line at a supermarket checkout lives with these solutions. In 2017, the LINX STORE EXPERIENCE brand emerged, focused on the shopping journey. The year 2018 brought the largest number of filings: LINX PAY and LINX PAY HUB for payment methods, LINX IMPULSE SUITE, and the brands NAPSE, NAPSE IMPULSE SUITE, NAPSE PAY HUB, as well as STOREX. Each one inhabits the daily life of Brazilian commerce, from the pharmacy to the supermarket.
Today, when consumers buy bread or medicine, they may be facing a Linx system without seeing the logo. The company's brands accompany everyday life with discreet and present technology, connecting retailers and customers across the country.
