If you plan to sell your product in another country, the best format is EAN-13.<\/p>\n<p>If you sell your product in multiple countries, including the USA, you can obtain a barcode in either EAN-13 or UPC-12 format. Most barcode scanners can read EAN and UPC barcodes, so using the same barcode on your product, regardless of which country it is in, is acceptable. An EAN (European standard) barcode within the USA or a UPC barcode outside the USA is acceptable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Using your barcode:<\/h2>\n<p>You will receive your unique EAN-13 and UPC-12 barcode number by email, a guarantee certificate (for proof of ownership) and your barcode images.<\/p>\n<p>The barcode images will be sent in three different file formats (JPEG, PDF &amp; PNG). The size of the images will be about 38 mm x 25 mm (standard barcode size). If you need to reduce the size slightly, that is fine (the smallest recommended size is 80% of the standard size, i.e., approximately 30 mm x 20 mm).<\/p>\n<p>You can put your barcode onto your product label or packaging &amp; start using it immediately. Your barcode will be a blank number (it will not contain any product or company details). After you give your product to your retailer, they will scan the barcode &amp; type the product information into their system. This will connect your barcode to your product. After that, when they scan your barcode, the product name &amp; details will appear on their checkout screen.<\/p>\n<h3>Need help?<\/h3>\n<p>Here are some common questions:<\/p>\n<p><strong>How many barcodes do I need?<\/strong><br \/>\nGetting a different barcode for each product or product variation is best practice. This is because stores use barcodes for two primary purposes: 1. Barcodes are used to obtain the price of the product when scanned at the checkout. 2. Barcodes are used to track stock and decide when to reorder an item.<\/p>\n<p>This means that if retailers only use barcodes for option 1, you can get away with having the same barcode for two product variations (i.e., different colours of the same product). However, if the retailer uses barcodes for option 2, a different barcode will be required for each product variation.<\/p>\n<p>In general, retailers prefer to stock products that are straightforward to manage. Some retailers may not stock products if they have to manually count how many are left of each size and reorder accordingly. Therefore, it is recommended that you have a different barcode for each variation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will Your Barcodes Work Worldwide?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes, they will. We supply EAN-13 Barcodes (used worldwide) and UPC-A Barcodes (in the USA and Canada).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do Your Barcodes Work in Every Shop?<\/strong><br \/>\nOur barcodes are accepted in nearly all stores worldwide, except for a few.
