Our Barcode Registration

We include Barcode Registration in purchases:

Barcode registration is included with all of the barcode numbers we sell, so customers should only purchase barcode registration if they have a barcode through another provider that they wish to register.

Customers need to provide proof-of-ownership to have externally-purchased barcodes registered.

Is barcode registration essential?

It’s an optional service that we offer to generally increase the Internet profile of customer products.

Registration is not essential for any barcode numbers as there is no central database for barcodes, however, there are several advantages to registering barcodes online.

Our Barcode Labels

Customers typically purchase barcodes remotely and then arrange their own printing. However, you should be able to offer a service for printing labels for them. Your aim would be to print well, produce prints that are easily scannable, and eventually be able to guarantee that you avoid the common problems faced with other label printers.

Our HQ barcode label printing service takes up to 3 working days to process, and up to 7 working days to deliver.

Our Barcode Verification

Barcode Verification is a test scan of the barcode as it will be printed on the product packaging.

Verification enables customers to avoid expensive rollout of barcodes that then do not work.

Tests are done on a technical scanning machine that measures how easily and accurately the barcode is likely to scan in a variety of different environments. The report comes back with a pass grade (A,B,C or D) or a Fail grade (in which case reasons will be given for the failure).

Our Custom Barcode Artwork

Customers who have already purchased barcode numbers can hire our Designers to produce customised barcode images (for example a barcode image that incorporates a company logo), deliverable in our standard image formats.

Our Barcode Artwork Test

This is a test to verify whether custom barcode artwork will scan well.

It is conducted on the same equipment as the Verification Test, but is less formal and produces a guideline rather than a guaranteed Verification. If you offer this kind of test, be sure to use the correct language to avoid false expectations. For example “I cannot see any issues with this, so in my opinion this should scan correctly. However, I cannot guarantee it without a formal Verification Test.”
