There are often misconceptions about UPC barcode, here we’ll clarify them one by one -
1. UPC barcode is a unique ID number assigned to a product for tracking retail sales and inventory
2. UPC barcode is not mandatory unless it is required by a distributor, retail store, or if you intend to track retail sales yourselves
3. Generally UPC barcode can be obtained from a replicator with a small fee or free. If you prefer to get your own barcode directly from GS1, and there will be a one-time fee of $750. Check their website for most updated pricing.
4. A barcode needs to be registered with soundscan or videoscan so you can start tracking retail sales. Reports can be obtained from soundscan or videoscan for a fee.
