A Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is a numeric identifier that uniquely distinguishes products across the global marketplace. Assigned by GS1, these numbers are essential tools in the supply chain, helping companies to efficiently stock, track, and sell goods in international markets.
A GS1 Digital Link extends the functionality of traditional barcodes by embedding a web-enabled URL that links directly to detailed product information online. This innovative digital tool streamlines access to everything from nutritional data to manufacturing details, all encoded within a scannable barcode that supports richer consumer engagement and enhanced business operations.
Upon scanning at the point of sale, the system identifies the GTIN URL from the QR code and pulls the essential data. Similarly, when a traditional QR reader scans the code, it processes the URL like a conventional web link, routing requests through Flowcode for navigation. Flowcode interprets the GS1-formatted URL, applying settings such as geographical location, language, date, and device type to modify the outcome dynamically based on predefined configurations. This setup allows a singular QR code to deliver various results depending on the context of its scan.
