I need barcodes!

How does the whole process work?

need barcodes

With SA Barcodes, you will be happy to discover that the process of purchasing barcodes is one of efficiency, speed and ease. Our company is ideal for the small business owner or individual who is looking to get their products to retail. It’s these people, who consequently need barcodes, who SA Barcodes is both happy and able to assist. It’s as simple as making a call or clicking a link. SA Barcodes gives customers the option to purchase barcodes online and send through the cost via Payfast . You can also call us or send us an email where you will receive excellent service from our staff who are able to quickly determine your barcode needs and then deliver on them. Once you have paid and accepted the terms and conditions, the barcode package is then sent to the customer within one working day – although, you can expect your package much sooner than this.

What is a barcode package and what does it include?

The barcode package is what is generated and sent to the customer after a payment is received and the terms and conditions are accepted. Included in the barcode package are a number of essentials to have your products well on their way to retail. These are:

  • the barcode number (both UPC and EAN barcodes are provided and you can choose which one is best depending on which system the retail store operates with), 
  • the barcode image in high resolution formats, 
  • a certificate of registration , 
  • a sizing template (to help with adding the barcode image to the design of your packaging), 
  • the invoice, 
  • as well as the terms and conditions. 


Once receiving your barcode package from us, it is up to you to add the barcodes onto your goods. However, if needed, SA Barcodes is able to print your barcode labels for you.

The price of the barcodes is a once-off payment and there is no need for annual fees here at SA Barcodes. Returning customers who need barcodes are offered a 5% discount of their total cost when purchasing any kind of barcode from us again.
