What Are Tinly 2D Barcodes?

Tinly 2D Barcodes are advanced QR Codes designed specifically for product packaging and labeling. Built on the GS1 Digital Link standard, these barcodes embed a product’s Global Trade Item Number (GTIN), allowing them to be scanned at retail checkout using standard barcode readers.

Unlike traditional 1D barcodes, Tinly’s 2D Barcodes can also link directly to a website URL, enabling consumers to scan them with their smartphones for instant access to detailed product information, promotions, or brand stories.
