Barcode Shop

NOTE: All prices are one-off costs. We do not charge ongoing fees of any kind.

Barcode Registration: This is an optional additional service to increase the internet profile of your product and ensure that it appears when your barcode is scanned with some cellphone app scanners such as the Zebra app.

NOTE – Barcode registration is a service for barcode numbers that you already own or buy from us. This registration service does not include the supply of the barcode numbers – they need to be obtained separately.

  • Barcode Number & Product Registration

    International Barcodes Database logo

    If you purchase registration you can add your barcode numbers and product/company details on the International Barcodes Database (information you submit to that database will be fed through to several other barcode databases as well).

    Please put your barcode number (UPC, EAN or ISBN) into the “additional information” section of the checkout page. We will then email you to request proof of your barcode ownership. If we are satisfied that you are the legal owner of a legitimate barcode number we will activate it for registration on the International Barcodes Database. You will receive instructions for how to register.

    Please note, ‘Barcode Registration’ is included in our UPC and EAN Barcode Packages already. You only need to purchase this item if you obtained your barcode from another company, or if you want to register an ISBN or ISSN number.

    Why Register?

    Our registration service adds this visibility for your products.

    Our registration service registers the barcode number and product/manufacturer on the International Barcodes Database (https://barcodesdatabase.org/). This makes it easier for people to find your barcode number or product via internet searches and some smart phone barcode scanning apps. The internet search success depends on which search engine you are using, and how well that has been indexed on the internet. There are a lot of barcode scanning apps – and more being released regularly. The places they search varies from app to app. Some apps such as the Zebra Scanning App serach directly in databases and should find barcodes/products registered through our registration service. 

    Some apps assume the user is wanting to find the product for sale in an online shop in their vicinity – hence these apps will search in online stress nearby … so obviously they are more likely to find your product if it is for sale in online stores in that region. And some apps have other search algorithms which are hard to understand. Most apps change or update where they search regularly. So the results can change over time.Therefore the success of searching or scanning depends on which search engine or app you use, and how much information is available on the internet, including online stores.

    The PWA (progressive web app) Zebra Barcode Scanner App finds the correct product details from barcodesdatabase org. It is free. Look it up on your smartphone and save it to your homescreen. You can use it to scan your barcodes.

ITF-14 Carton Codes: Some retailers require a 14-digit barcode for the delivery box for your product. If your retailers require this, you can order an ITF-14 Carton Code below:

  • ITF-14 Carton Code barcode imageITF-14

    Image for the outside of a carton containing a quantity of your retail product – based on your UPC or EAN retail barcode number. Artwork will be supplied in 3 formats (png, svg and pdf).

    Please enter your UPC or EAN barcode number into the additional information box when you get to the checkout page. We will use it to create your ITF-14 carton code images. If you are purchasing a UPC or EAN barcode at the same time as an ITF-14 barcode just type “n/a” in the additional information box – we will assign a UPC or EAN barcode number to you, and then use that to create your ITF-14 barcode images.

    NOTE ITF-14 barcodes are for use on cartons for shipping, not for retail sale. If your carton is being sold at a retail level, you should use a UPC or EAN retail barcode on the carton.
