Barcode Registration

Bought your barcodes from us? Registration is already included, free. Your instructions were in your order email; you don’t need anything on this page. How registration works.

This page is for barcode numbers obtained from another supplier.

What barcode registration does

Registering adds your number and your product details to IBNVerified.org and the International Barcodes Database, which feed into other major barcode databases and scanning apps.

Two things follow from that. You get a public, dated record that the number belongs to you; useful if a retailer questions it, or if someone else starts using the same number. And your product appears when someone looks up the number, instead of a blank entry.

What happens after you order

  1. Enter your barcode number or numbers in the additional information box at checkout. Separate multiple numbers with commas.
  2. We email you to request proof that the number is yours.
  3. Once we confirm it, we activate the number and give you access to the Customer Portal.
  4. You enter your product and company details there.
  5. Your details appear on IBNVerified.org and the International Barcodes Database.

What counts as proof of ownership

We ask for this because registering a number to the wrong person is worse than not registering it at all. Anything that ties the number to you will usually do:

  • the original invoice or order email from the supplier you bought it from
  • a certificate of ownership, if your supplier issued one

If you’re not sure what you have, email us before ordering, and we’ll tell you whether it’s enough.

How long it takes

Verification usually takes 24–48 hours, depending on how quickly you can send proof. Once you submit your details in the portal, they appear in the databases within 24 hours.

Don’t have a barcode yet?

Frequently asked questions

What is barcode registration? It records your barcode number and product details in a public database, so anyone who looks up the number finds your product instead of nothing. It also gives you a dated record of ownership.

Do I need to buy registration if I bought the barcode from you? No, it’s included free of charge, and your instructions were included in your order email.

Can I register a barcode I bought somewhere else? Yes. That’s what this page is for. We’ll ask for proof that the number is yours before activating it.

Does barcode registration expire? No. There’s nothing to renew and no recurring fee.

Will registration make my barcode work on Amazon? No. Amazon checks numbers against the GS1 database and looks for a match to your brand, which registration on an independent database doesn’t create. See what Amazon requires.

Is barcode registration required? No. A barcode scans perfectly well without it. It matters when someone looks up the number rather than scans it, whether a retailer is checking you’re legitimate or a shopper wants product details.
