All products are sent electronically and in a compressed format. Artwork (barcode images) are sent in EPS and JPEG formats. The buyer may request via email other image file formats. Barcodes Mania recommends that you print the barcode numbers and barcode image using a laser printer. Barcodes Mania also strongly recommends that you print the barcode numbers and barcode images in black ink and on a white background only, to ensure that the barcode numbers and images can be read by a scanner.

Limitation Of Liability

Certain retailers require that you provide a certificate directly from GS1. There are only a handful of stores that require a GS1 certificate in your name or in your company name. It is your responsibility to clarify with your retailer(s) and/or wholesalers/distributors to find out their barcoding/barcode registration requirements, and if they accept UPC/EAN numbers purchased from barcode resellers like Barcodes Mania.

The vast majority of retailers worldwide do not require a GS1 issued certificate, or you to have your own GS1 membership.

The buyer understands and agrees that Barcodes Mania UPC and EAN numbers will not be accepted by Home Depot, Walmart (Walmart online marketplace is accepted, not Walmart offline), Sam's Club, JC Penney's, Wegmans, Kroger, Costco, Macy's, Bloomingdales, Sears, Nordstrom, Whole Foods, Target and may not be accepted by K-Mart, Walgreen's and other large big-box retailers - mainly in the US and UK, but not limited to.

Certain EDI system providers and logistical companies that do business with Walmart and Kroger may also have the same requirements as Walmart and Kroger. If any retailer/wholesaler/distributor you plan to send your supply to requires a GS1 issued certificate or to have your own prefix/GS1 registration, then we are not a solution for you. In this case, you must obtain your barcode numbers directly from GS1.

If you are an Amazon seller and you need to use Amazon's EDI system for your products, you be required to have a direct relationship with GS1. Please read our section on Amazon below, as there are a few other exceptions in regards to using barcodes on Amazon.

The Buyer understands that they may not resell, lease, or relist any codes purchased from Barcodes Mania without explicit written permission. If you are interested in reselling any of our codes, you will need to contact us first with your company information and where or how you plan to sell our codes and we will get back to you.

Selling On Amazon

Labelling your products - as there can be a number of issues that can take place, we very strongly recommend that you list your product first on Amazon and then, add the UPC/EAN barcode image to your product (only if required). Taking this approach, can save you time and expense should there be any issues with your Amazon listing.

About 99% of customers who buy codes intended for use on Amazon experience no listing issues. Around 1% of customers experience some kind of listing issues. For Google Merchant, Walmart.com, Shopify, eBay, Noon and other online marketplaces – we have no errors reported on these online selling platforms.

If you require your details on the GS1 certificate or your details to show in the GS1 database look up search, you will need to rent your numbers directly from the GS1 office within your country.

Should you look up the UPC or EAN on the GS1 website database, the resulting prefix details will be of the original trading name associated with that prefix. Your name or company name will not appear in the GS1 database look-up results. Again, if you require to have your details to appear in the GS1 database, you must rent your own numbers from the GS1 in your country.

Many of the barcodes we sell are used to list products on amazon.com, amazon.ca, amazon.au, amazon.mx, amazon.co.uk, amazon.ae and all other Amazon sites Worldwide. We sell lots of barcodes to both new and repeat customers every day.
