Pick EAN-13 or UPC-A for retail products, ITF-14 for cartons, or Code 128 for any text.
Type the number or text. For EAN and UPC, enter the digits without the check digit and it is added for you.
Set bar width, height, margin and colours while watching the live preview.
Press Generate barcode. For a list, switch to Bulk, paste one value per line and generate them all.
Download the PNG or SVG, or all bulk files as one ZIP.
A barcode generator turns a number or text into the bars a scanner reads. This one makes the seven most used linear formats: EAN-13 and EAN-8 for retail products, UPC-A for the US and Canada, ITF-14 for shipping cartons, Code 128 for any text on shipping and inventory labels, Code 39 for older industrial systems and Codabar for libraries and blood banks.
For EAN, UPC and ITF-14 it calculates the GS1 check digit for you, or verifies the one you typed and tells you the correct digit if it's wrong, so you don't print a barcode that won't scan. You set the bar width, height, quiet zone, text size and colours, and see a live preview. Each barcode downloads as a PNG (at 1× to 4× resolution for print) and as an SVG that scales to any size. Bulk mode turns a list of up to 500 values, pasted from Excel or a CSV column, into one file per value in a ZIP.
Limits: this tool draws the barcode; it doesn't issue product numbers. To sell in most retail stores you need GS1-registered numbers from your local GS1 office, and a made-up EAN or UPC can clash with another company's product. QR codes and 2D formats such as Data Matrix are not included.
Small sellers, warehouses, libraries and event organisers need print-ready barcodes without installing label software. Check-digit validation catches typos before they reach a printer, SVG output stays sharp at any label size, and bulk mode saves making hundreds of codes one by one.

Enter the first 12 digits and the tool adds the 13th. It multiplies the digits alternately by 1 and 3 from the left, adds them up, and the check digit is the amount needed to reach the next multiple of 10. If you type all 13 digits, it checks the last one and tells you the correct digit if it's wrong.
The barcodes are standard and scannable, but retailers and Amazon usually require GS1-registered product numbers. Get your numbers from GS1 in your country, then use this tool to draw them.
Use SVG for print and label software, since it stays sharp at any size. Use PNG for documents, spreadsheets and websites; choose 3× or 4× resolution if you will print it.
Yes. Switch to Bulk, paste up to 500 values (one per line, straight from an Excel or CSV column) and generate them in one run. Invalid lines are listed with the reason and skipped, and the rest download as a ZIP.
Code 128 encodes all standard keyboard characters, upper and lower case, and is more compact. Code 39 supports only upper-case letters, digits and a few symbols, and is wider for the same text. Use Code 39 only when an older system requires it.
Common causes are low contrast (use dark bars on white), too small a margin around the bars, bars printed too thin, or a wrong check digit. The tool warns about contrast and check digits; for print, keep a bar width of at least 2 px at 3× resolution.
Yes. The generator, preview and downloads work in mobile browsers on iPhone and Android.
The live preview is always free. Generating the files uses a run: one run per day is free, then each run costs 5 credits with a free AI Rank Lab account. A bulk run of up to 500 barcodes counts as one run.
Each one opens on its own page and works straight away, with no sign-up.
