Barcode Symbol Generation

GS1 Ireland offers members a barcode symbol generation service which can be accessed through our online tool Barcode Manager.

 

You can create and download EAN-13 or ITF-14 barcode symbols for your products and cases directly in Barcode Manager. 

Symbols in Barcode Manager are generated using Barcode Symbol Credits. One credit is required for each symbol generated and Barcode Manager will store the generated symbols for you to download as many times as you require (no credits required for repeat downloads).

Tip: If your graphic designer or printer can generate barcode symbols for you as part of your packaging design process, you do not need to purchase credits and download symbols through Barcode Manager. The use of Barcode Manager to allocate barcode numbers and store product information is free-of-charge to paid up members - only the symbol generation component is a paid-for service.
