Free Barcode Generator

Free tool · by Daniel Haket

Generate a scannable barcode from any value — CODE128, EAN-13, UPC or CODE39 — and download it as a PNG or SVG. Runs entirely in your browser, free and without a signup.

Need more than the free basics? This makes a barcode image from a number you provide. To sell on Amazon, retail or globally you need official, registered GS1 numbers that won't clash with another product — that's what Barcodes Talk supplies.

Which barcode format do I need?

EAN-13 and UPC are the retail barcodes you see on products (UPC in North America, EAN elsewhere). CODE128 is a flexible format for shipping, logistics and internal labels. CODE39 is older but common in industrial and ID uses. This tool draws the barcode image — but for products sold in shops or on Amazon, the number itself must be an official, registered code.

Frequently asked questions

Is this barcode generator free?

Yes — pick a format, enter a value and download the barcode as PNG or SVG. It runs in your browser with no signup.

Can I use these barcodes to sell on Amazon or in stores?

The image is real and scannable, but retail and Amazon require an official, registered barcode number (a GS1 GTIN) that's unique to your product. Generating a random number risks clashing with someone else's. For that, use a provider like Barcodes Talk.

What's the difference between EAN-13 and UPC?

Both are retail barcodes — UPC (12 digits) is standard in North America, EAN-13 (13 digits) is used internationally. Most modern scanners read both.

PNG or SVG?

PNG for quick use and labels; SVG for print, since it stays crisp at any size. For large production runs, SVG is the safer choice.
