Know before you buy
Launching a food brand, cosmetics line, clothing business, or private-label product? Understand your barcode requirements before you order—and before you print your packaging.
A barcode identifies a product. It does not guarantee marketplace acceptance, prove authenticity, or automatically add product details to a retailer’s system.
Check your sales channels
Confirm your marketplace or retailer’s identifier requirements, including whether GS1-issued identifiers are required.
Count your product variations
Plan a unique identifier for each distinct product, size, flavour, or pack configuration—not every physical packet.
Order, then receive your barcodes
Purchase through MyPerfectPack. Our team reviews the completed purchase and manually issues your barcode numbers to your account.
The buying guide
Your questions,
answered.
From barcode basics to bundles, retail requirements, and print checks.
No. A standard EAN-13 barcode does not normally contain your product's name, price, description, or other detailed product information.
It represents a 13-digit identifier that can be used to identify a product. When a cashier scans the barcode, the billing system uses that number to retrieve the matching product details from its database.
For example, a barcode on a packet of turmeric powder identifies the particular product, while the billing software stores its name, selling price, tax details, and other information.
The barcode identifies the product; the connected system provides the details.
