Annual Subscription Options for Licensed, Authenticated Barcodes*

A GS1 Canada subscription helps you get it right from the start by ensuring your products have a verifiable and globally unique barcode and Global Trade Item Number (a GTIN, referring to the numbers under a barcode). The subscription level you need is based on the number of unique products you plan on selling. A GTIN and barcode is required for every size, flavour and variation (such as low-fat or sugar-free) of your product. If you're not sure how many GTINs and barcodes you're going to need, use our simple GTIN Estimator to help figure it out.

* Your subscription and associated licence are valid for 12 months and automatically renews annually, unless written notice is received at least 60 days prior to the licence expiration.
