For brands & manufacturers

Your products already have GTINs. Now make them 2D-ready.

Import the product catalog you already manage, create persistent Digital Link identities, and prepare every packaging run for a more useful barcode.

Start with my product catalog Talk to us about migration

Existing UPCs remain part of the transition. Add 2D capability as your packaging and retail partners are ready.

A practical workflow

From spreadsheet to packaging.

The first step is not a new catalog. It's the one you already have. Turn product rows into identities, destinations, and packaging-ready assets.

Import a catalog
01
Bring your catalog

Upload the spreadsheet you already use.

02
Validate the identifiers

Work with the GTINs your products already have.

03
Create product identities

Use a permanent, brand-ready Digital Link.

04
Generate the 2D barcode

Create a QR asset for the next packaging run.

05
Control the experience

Connect an existing site or host structured content.

06
Prepare for rollout

Review digital setup before packaging and retail deployment.

The product identity

One code. Two jobs.

Use the same printed 2D identity for retail operations and the product information shoppers want after the scan.

At checkout

QR → GTIN → POS

A compatible scanner can extract the product identifier directly from the symbol without depending on a web redirect.

On a phone

QR → Digital Link → Experience

The same printed identity can open the product content a shopper needs today—and update tomorrow.

Your domain, your relationship

Put your brand on the package. Not ours.

A product identity should be recognizable when it is printed, scanned, shared, and updated. Use a brand-owned domain where it makes sense for your packaging architecture.

Generic QR infrastructure

Short and disposable.

Brand-owned product identity

id.acme.com/01/00012345678905

Persistent and recognizable on packaging.

Before the print run

Don't discover a problem after 100,000 packages are printed.

Run a digital preflight for identifiers, destinations, domains, and QR assets before they reach artwork review. Then verify the physical symbol with the right printer and testing process.

Software checks reduce preventable setup errors. They do not replace physical barcode verification or ISO quality testing.
