BARCODES IN OUR DATABASE
Qué es un código de barras?
A barcode is a one-of-a-kind code composed of numbers, along with a
specific pattern of stripes that represents a particular product. These codes
are designed to be scanned by optical readers, just like the ones you see at
checkout counters in retail stores. But since the lines correspond to a list of
numbers, it’s easy to lookup any product with a barcode simply by matching
those numbers to an entry in a database. The three different barcode formats
and symbologies you’ll find on our website are:
UPC
UNIVERSAL PRODUCT CODE
The United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand
and many other countries generally use barcodes known as Universal Product
Codes (UPCs).
EAN
INTERNATIONAL ARTICLE
NUMBER
Merchants in Europe and other areas around the world often use a barcode
type known as an International Article Number (EAN, since it was formerly known
as European Article Number).
ISBN
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD BOOK
NUMBER
Books often use the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) barcode
format, which is compatible with EAN barcodes.
Why do a barcode lookup?
A product's packaging may not tell you
everything you need to know about that product — where it comes from, how well
it works or how it's priced at other stores. Enter any product’s UPC, EAN or
ISBN code into Barcode Lookup, and find all kinds of information about the item
including its manufacturer, name, description, photos and customer reviews. We
even show you links to online stores where you can buy the same item — often
for less than your local retail store is charging. We're here to make it as easy
as possible for you to find what you're looking for, so you can make smart
buying decisions.
Where do we get our barcode information?
We work directly with over 1,500 retailers
who provide us with massive amounts of data and the latest barcodes in their
inventory systems. We've got just about everything in our database — from
common grocery items and electronics, to obscure lesser known products. We use
our proprietary technology to sort through the data, sift out the most useful
information and present it to you in a searchable, easy-to-use format.
Our database is growing every day.
Currently, our database is in the tens of millions — and we're
constantly working to acquire more. And as soon as the data for a new barcode
comes into our possession, we immediately import it into our searchable
database to make sure you can find it. At Barcode Lookup, we analyze, check and
re-check the information in our database to ensure that it's accurate and up-
to-date.
Lookup products on the go with our mobile
app!
All the product info you can retrieve from
our website is also available through the FREE mobile app, available for Android and iOS devices. The Barcode
Lookup app gives you instant access to the millions of barcodes in our system,
along with all the product info, descriptions, manufacturers and brands,
customer reviews, photos, and links to online stores. With the app, you can
scan and lookup any barcode while you shop — for FREE!
Barcode Lookup is used by thousands of e-commerce stores worldwide.
In many countries, Google merchant accounts now require the use of
Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs) in shopping
data feeds. These internationally accepted codes enable online merchants across
the globe to identify products in a way that other merchants and customers can
recognize. A growing number of online merchants now include product UPC, EAN
and ISBN barcodes in their shopping cart back-end systems.
Here's where we come in…
Barcode Lookup helps you fill in the gaps for missing product barcodes.
Just run a search by product and brand name or manufacturer part number (MPN)
to find the barcodes you're missing.
We offer Bulk Lookup services.
Need to look up a large number of barcodes
quickly? Use our convenient Bulk Lookup service to grab the information we have
for every product you need, all at once. No waiting. No typing in barcodes one
at a time. Just send us a list of UPC, EAN or ISBN codes, or manufacturer part
numbers and let us do the rest. We'll send back a CSV file with product names,
descriptions, categories, manufacturers and brands, images and store pricing
data. Check out our Bulk Lookup page to learn more
and place an order.
Building a website or app that needs barcode lookup functionality?
If you're a developer looking for an easy-to-use API for barcode
lookups, you’re in the right place. Whether you're building a shopping
application, a barcode scanner app, a product information lookup app, or any
other mobile application or website using barcode lookup technology, our API is
easy to integrate. You can make an API call by sending us a barcode number or
search term. We search our database and return that product's name, category,
description, customer reviews, photos and more. Visit our API page for more
details.
And by the way... it's easy to get your own
barcodes, too.
You don't
have to be a large corporation to get your very own barcodes for the products
you manufacture. All you need to do is order them! Run a quick search on your
favorite search engine, and you'll find plenty of websites that can set you up
with your own UPC, EAN or ISBN code. It's fast, easy and affordable — and it's
worth doing if you plan to sell your product in retail stores or on e-commerce
websites. Just be aware that different types of GTIN codes are appropriate for
different types of products and selling situations. So be sure to check up on
the rules with the company you're buying your barcode from, before you make a
purchase.
