Barcode Graphics for Greeting Cards |
 |
The requirements for a barcode for greeting cards differ slightly from UPC barcodes for other retail products in that the greeting card industry requires a very large quantity of unique barcodes for the many different greeting card designs.

| How do Barcodes for Greeting Cards work? | |
| A greeting card’s 12-digit UPC code, when scanned at the register, alerts the retailers as to which company placed the card with them. The 5-digit supplemental code identifies the particular design of card. Greeting Card Codes appear as lines (bars) of varying widths representing the series of numbers commonly shown below the bars. Barcode scanners read the bars and convert them back to the Greeting Card Code that they represent. When you reach an agreement with a retailer to carry your product(s), they request the information required by their unique proprietary sales and inventory tracking system. Your Greeting Card Code, when looked up within the retailer’s inventory system finds the corresponding product name and price. This information helps the retailer keep accurate inventory data, review sales, and reorder. |

| Can I purchase a Greeting Card Code without having a UPC code? | |
| No, all individual cards must have a UPC code first in order to create the greeting card code. You can purchase your UPC and greeting card codes at the same time or add the greeting card codes later. You benefit from this system due to the reduced overall cost for purchasing supplemental graphics creation versus UPC codes for each unique design. Note: This system only applies to loose single cards. Box sets require their own unique UPC codes. |

| How do I get my Greeting Card Barcode on my card? | |
| Providing the barcode image to your graphic artist and including it in the design of your packaging or label prior to printing is the easiest and most economical way of getting your greeting card barcode on your card. If your cards have already been printed, you will need barcode labels. If you would like to order pre-printed barcode labels, please select this option when ordering your Greeting Card Code. If you have already completed your order, then click label printing to order labels. Please use the label price calculator on the label printing order form to determine the price for your labels. All orders received before 2 p.m. Eastern Time on business days are completed the same day and shipped for free within the continental U.S. |
