How to convert a UPC or EAN barcode to a GS1 QR code

  1. 1
    Enter or scan your barcode number
    Type the 8, 12 or 13-digit GTIN printed under your UPC or EAN barcode, or drop in a photo of the barcode and we read the number for you.
  2. 2
    We build the GS1 Digital Link
    The number is validated, zero-filled to a 14-digit GTIN and wrapped in a GS1 Digital Link URI — or a GS1 element string if you have no domain.
  3. 3
    Download your QR code
    Get a print-ready QR as SVG, PNG, PDF or EPS — one at a time, or convert a whole CSV of GTINs in bulk.

GS1 Digital Link, Sunrise 2027 and the move to 2D barcodes

A GS1 Digital Link QR code encodes your product’s GTIN inside a web address, so a single 2D barcode scans at retail point-of-sale and opens a product page when a shopper scans it with a phone. Under the GS1 Sunrise 2027 initiative, retailers worldwide are upgrading checkouts to read these QR codes alongside traditional UPC and EAN barcodes. Converting your existing barcodes now — free, in your browser, with no account — gets your packaging ready for the transition.
