GS1 Company Prefix - EAN
To create barcodes, license a GS1 Company Prefix. It's a unique company identification number and its part of every barcode you create.
A GS1 Company Prefix comes in different “capacities” that allow you to barcode as few as 10 unique products and as many as 100,000 unique products. You’ll need a barcode for each product variation, such as size and color. Choose a prefix capacity that best meets the needs of your business now and in the near future.
