What is Barcode?

Barcodes are vertical line representations that can be scanned electronically to fetch product details faster. Barcodes are used to encode product details instantly, such as product numbers, serial numbers, and batch numbers. A barcode on a product plays a vital role in the supply chain, enabling all participants like manufacturers, transporters, and wholesalers to identify products easily. Additionally, barcodes are crucial in supply chains, supermarkets, transportation, hospitals, and fast-moving retail chains.

EAN-13 is the most commonly used type of barcode with 13 numeric digits. UPC-A barcode is a superset of 12 numeric digits.

Is Barcode Registration Compulsory?

Barcode registration is not a government-mandated requirement. A retail barcode will work fine even without registration because stores enter the barcode number and link it to their billing or inventory software on an individual basis.

Benefits of International Barcode Registration

We do not just provide barcode ownership to you. We ensure registration of EAN-13 & UPC barcodes on an international barcode database along with product details. Barcode registration enables visibility on Google search for the barcode number affixed on the product. On registration, barcode scanning will return product information from an international database to readers online.

Types of Barcode

EAN-13

International Article Number, previously called European Article Number. EAN-13 is the 13-digit barcode generally used in Europe, India, and other nations.

UPC-A

Universal Product Code or UPC-A is a 12-digit barcode generally used in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand.

Free Barcode Generator vs GS1 Barcode

There are various free online tools available to generate barcodes. Manufacturers and packagers spend thousands of rupees printing barcodes on product packaging. Generally, big retail chains such as Walmart, Big Bazaar, Max Fashion, Home Center, Aditya Birla Retail, Shoppers Stop, etc., do not accept barcodes except GS1. Product rejection due to free barcodes may lead to a big loss by reprinting product packages with legitimate barcodes.

Pros Cons
It's Free! Big retail chains do not accept free barcodes.
Barcode meant for quick scanning. Free ones carry poor quality and generally compromise with scan capability.
No guarantee of a unique barcode number. Free tools may generate the same barcode for anyone.
