How Many Barcodes Do You Need?
Each unique product requires its own UPC barcode. Here’s how to calculate:
Same product, multiple units: 1 barcode (print it on each unit)
Product variations (colors, sizes): 1 barcode per variation
Completely different products: 1 barcode each
Example: If you’re selling a t-shirt in 5 colors, you need 5 different barcodes.

Why Our Barcodes Work Better Than Expensive Alternatives
We’ve been GS1 members since before 2002, which allows us to offer legitimate UPC codes without the high costs and renewal fees of going directly through GS1. Our codes satisfy all Amazon requirements and work exactly like expensive GS1 codes.
GS1 Direct: $250+ initial fee plus annual renewals
LegalBarcode.com: Starting at just $5 per code with no renewals
⚠️ Important: Always create your Amazon listing BEFORE labeling your products. This ensures everything matches up correctly in Amazon’s system.
