Join Barcodes Kenya today and create your first 2D Barcode in minutes.
Our platform makes it easy to add products, generate digital links, and create 2D Barcodes.
The GS1 2D Barcode standard is revolutionizing packaging, logistics, and checkout. With a single 2D code, you can incorporate dozens of powerful functionalities.
2D Barcode connects a physical product to digital product information. It can do this because a ‘Digital Link’ is encoded into the 2D Barcode (a Digital Link is a special type of web link that connects to digital product information). 2D Barcodes can be either QR Codes or Data Matrix codes, and they are printed on the product packaging. Once scanned, the 2D Barcode steers users to a designated web resource for immediate access to the product’s information
