Free Online Barcode Generator

Selling products? Shipping cartons? Organizing inventory? You need barcodes — and they need to be correct, or scanners reject them. Pick your barcode type above, enter the value, and download a crisp SVG (for print) or PNG (for screens). The tool validates your input against each format's rules before generating.

Which Barcode Type?

CODE128 — the all-rounder. Encodes letters, numbers, symbols. Use when in doubt.
EAN-13 — the retail standard outside North America. 13 digits, on virtually every product you buy.
UPC-A — the US/Canada retail equivalent. 12 digits.
CODE39 — older industrial standard, still common on warehouse labels.
ITF-14 — for shipping cartons and cases, not individual items.

Printing Tips

Print at 100% scale — resizing barcodes breaks the precise bar widths scanners read. Black bars on white background scan most reliably, and give the code some "quiet zone" (blank space) on both sides.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these barcodes on products I sell?

For internal use (inventory, shipping, price tags) — yes, freely. For retail products sold in stores, you need officially registered numbers: a GS1 prefix for EAN/UPC. Random numbers won't scan at checkout.

SVG or PNG — which should I download?

SVG for print (packaging, labels) — it scales infinitely with zero blur. PNG for quick digital use.

Why won't my EAN-13 generate?

It needs exactly 12 or 13 digits. Enter 12 and the check digit is calculated automatically.
