Frequently asked questions

Is this a real, scannable barcode?+

Yes. It's drawn from the official EAN13 specification with proper module widths, quiet zones and an auto-calculated check digit, so standard barcode scanners and apps read it correctly.

Do I need to include the check digit?+

No — enter the 12 data digits and the tool computes and appends the final check digit automatically. If you enter the full number, it's verified for you.

How do I get a valid retail (GS1) number?+

To sell in shops you need a GTIN from GS1 (the body that issues unique company prefixes). This tool renders any number you own into a compliant barcode image — it doesn't assign you a number.

Is my data uploaded?+

No — the barcode is rendered on a canvas in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
