Barcodes for labels & inventory
Make a single barcode for a stock item, or create bulk barcodes from a list of values. Set the sheet columns and include readable values below your barcodes for easier identification.
ABOUT BARDATA
Barcodes made simple.
Useful by design.
BarData is a free online barcode and QR code generator by tcfella. Turn your values into clear, downloadable codes for labels, inventory, printed materials, and everyday sharing.
01 / THE PURPOSE
A practical tool for a small but important task.
Making barcodes should not require a subscription, specialist design software, or an account. BarData brings the essentials into one workspace: enter your content, see the barcode or QR code, adjust its appearance, and download the result.
It is designed for people organizing stock, preparing labels, building packaging layouts, or adding a scannable link to something they print. The input and preview stay together so you can check your work as you go.
02 / PUT IT TO WORK
One generator. Different ways to use it.
QR codes for sharing information
Create QR codes for website links, plain text, email, phone numbers, or Wi-Fi details. Use them on printed instructions, signs, business cards, and other materials people can scan.
Supported barcode formats
- Code 128 barcodes
- General-purpose labels for SKUs, stock references, and text or numeric identifiers.
- EAN-13 & UPC-A barcodes
- Barcode images for existing retail product numbers. These formats require the correct number of digits and a valid check digit.
- Code 39 barcodes
- Inventory and industrial labels that use supported letters, numbers, and symbols.
- ITF-14 barcodes
- Numeric identifiers for shipping cartons and packaging workflows.
- MSI barcodes
- Numeric labels for inventory systems that use the MSI format.
Generating a barcode image does not assign a retail product number. Use your own valid identifiers and check the requirements of the retailer or inventory system where your barcodes will be used.

How to generate barcodes and QR codes
Choose your code and enter your data.
Select barcode or QR code, then Single code or Bulk sheet. For bulk generation, paste one value per line. The example values let you try the generator before entering your own.
Customize and check the live preview.
Adjust the color, size, and quiet margin. For a sheet of codes, choose the number of columns. Keep good contrast and a clear margin around each barcode or QR code.
Download the format you need.
Use PNG for an image, SVG for scalable artwork, or PDF for a printable bulk sheet. Single-code downloads support PNG and SVG. Exports include BarData branding on a white sheet.
Always scan a test copy at the intended print size before producing a batch of labels.
Your code content stays in your browser.
Barcode and QR code generation happens locally on your device. BarData records basic website visits to understand usage, but does not send the values you enter to its analytics service. No account is needed to generate or download codes.
