Search & Evaluate

GS1 standards in action

  • An online product search (GS1 SmartSearch), leads to product availability (EPC/RFID), available in-store information (GS1 SmartSearch) and Global Location Number (GLN) for store locator.
  • The online product search could also start via a promotion such as digital coupons that utilise a Global Coupon Number (GCN), Serialised Global Coupon Number (SGCN), Global Location Number (GLN) and/or Global Service Relation Number (GSRN).
  • GS1 standards enable trusted product information via code scanning. Data aggregators can also help to ensure the product information is available to application and web developers, for example, through the application-programming interface provided by GS1 Source.
