GS1 US and Marketplace Selling

Seamless Access to Global Product Identifiers

Today's online shoppers are looking for a broad array of products and have high expectations for speed, convenience, and order accuracy. As a marketplace seller, you can tap into this opportunity by licensing UPC barcodes directly from GS1 US.

To create a product listing, you will use the 12-digit number sequence under the UPC barcode. This is your product’s Global Trade Item Number (GTIN). GTINs that specifically link your company to your product help show that you are a credible, legitimate seller.
