A business needs 5,000 unique UPC barcodes for products sold on multiple online marketplaces but faces a dilemma between costly GS1 registration and risky reseller codes that may be recycled or hijacked.
GS1 is prohibitively expensive for the needed 5,000 codes, while reseller codes carry risk of being recycled or causing inventory conflicts; there is no verified, affordable option for mid-volume sellers outside Amazon.
