Philippine Products Barcode Database

FAQ

Tell me more about this Barcode Database?

We are a centralised database of information about Philippine products and barcode numbers. We store and manage product information that is associated with each barcode – the information we provide includes product names, descriptions, prices, manufacturer details, and other relevant data. The barcode numbers in this database were either purchased from, or registered through, Barcodes Philippines.

How do I look up a barcode number or a product?

You can look up a barcode number or a product/brand name in the search box on the International Barcode Registry website (the data on this website is drawn from that large international database).

Which products and barcodes are included in this database?

This database only includes data on barcodes that have been purchased from, or registered through Barcodes Philippines (and its member sites around the world). We run two databases – International Barcodes Database and International Barcode Registry. This site includes products from the Philippines that have been registered in those databases. This is not a complete database – we only provide a selection of products and barcodes from the Philippines.

What is IBN?

IBN is a global network with unrivalled local knowledge and support. We provide legal and verified barcode numbers and services through over 120 country specific websites. Wherever you are in the world, we can help get your products sold at retail.

How to Register Your Barcodes

If you want to register your barcodes you have two options:

If you don’t have a barcode number yet:

You can purchase a barcode from Barcodes Philippines. They are an official member of IBN. Barcodes purchased from members of IBN are automatically eligible for registration.

After you purchase a barcode, you will receive an email containing your barcode, and instructions for how to register it on the International Barcodes Database online database. Products registered on that database will also automatically appear in the International Barcode Registry database and here.

If you already have a barcode number for your product:

If you already have a barcode number(s) from a different barcode seller then you can register it by purchasing Barcode Registration (you will need to provide proof that you are the legal owner of the barcode). You will then receive an email with instructions for how to register your barcode on the International Barcodes Database online database.

What are the benefits of barcode registration?

Barcode registration is not compulsory (you can use your barcode numbers without registering your barcodes), however registration will increase the profile of your product and brand on the internet. Barcode registration makes it easier for retailers and customers to find your product and company information online. Barcode registration helps prevent theft or accidental misuse of your barcodes (it provides extra proof that the barcodes belong to you).

After you’ve registered your barcodes, your product and barcode information will appear in multiple online barcode databases – including the International Barcode Registry and the International Barcodes Database. Your barcode and product information will be visible in search engine results, and when scanned by the Zebra barcode app (available on Android/Apple or via a web browser).
