Barcodes & Batches

This page groups two tools for labels, packaging and batch preparation. Code 128 barcode creates an alphanumeric barcode, while Batch QR payloads helps prepare the content of several codes at once. Both are free to use without an account. They suit a shop owner, an event organiser or a developer who needs to prepare references before printing.

With only two tools, pick according to the expected format. Code 128 barcode handles linear alphanumeric codes, useful for internal references or labels. Batch QR payloads is aimed at preparing the content of many codes before printing. Start with the format your reader or label software already accepts, then switch to the other tool if your needs change.

How to use

Start by checking the format read by your scanner or label software, then choose Code 128 barcode if a linear alphanumeric code is enough.
If you need to prepare several references before printing, use Batch QR payloads to collect each code payload, then review the labels one by one.
For an internal product label, encode the reference with Code 128 barcode and test the render at the planned size before running the batch.
When both formats are used, keep Code 128 barcode for the label and Batch QR payloads for the batch, so you avoid retyping and mixing content.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Code 128 barcode and Batch QR payloads?

The first creates a linear alphanumeric barcode. The second prepares the content of several codes at once. Your choice depends on the code type and the number of items you need to handle.

Can I use these tools without signing up?

Yes, both tools are free and available without registration. You can prepare your codes in the browser and return to the task whenever you need.

Which one should I pick for labelling many products?

If your labels use a linear barcode, start with Code 128 barcode. If you need to collect the payloads for many codes, Batch QR payloads is more suitable. Check the format read by your equipment first.

Can I prepare a batch without printing right away?

Yes. Batch QR payloads helps prepare the content of several codes at once, without forcing immediate printing. You can gather the payloads, check them, and choose the printing time and medium later. Code 128 barcode remains useful if the final format is a linear alphanumeric code.

How do I avoid mixing an internal reference with a product code?

Set your naming rule first, then test one example with Code 128 barcode. If your scanner expects a precise format, keep the same structure for every label. For a batch, Batch QR payloads helps compare payloads before generation. Finally, check a printed sample.
