Frequently asked questions

Which barcode format should I use?
CODE128 is the most versatile — it encodes any ASCII character and is widely used for shipping labels and inventory. EAN-13 is the international standard for retail products (the barcode on packaged goods). EAN-8 is a shorter version for small items. UPC is the US retail standard.
What is CODE128?
CODE128 is a high-density linear barcode that can encode all 128 ASCII characters. It is widely used for shipping labels (FedEx, UPS, DHL), inventory management, and internal tracking systems. It has no fixed length limit.
What is EAN-13?
EAN-13 (European Article Number) is the international retail barcode standard used on products sold in stores. It consists of 13 digits: a country code, a manufacturer code, a product code, and a check digit. If you're selling retail products, you need a registered EAN/GTIN from GS1.
Can I use this barcode commercially?
You can generate and use CODE128 and CODE39 barcodes for internal purposes (inventory, shipping) without registration. For retail product barcodes (EAN-13, UPC), you need officially assigned numbers from GS1 — you cannot assign your own EAN-13 numbers.
