About GS1 US, Inc.
GS1 US, Inc. is the U.S. member organization of GS1, the global not‑for‑profit standards body best known for creating and managing the barcodes used on products worldwide. GS1 US assigns GS1 Company Prefixes and GTINs (Global Trade Item Numbers, often called UPCs), and provides education, data services, and implementation support to help businesses identify products, locations, and assets in a standardized way. Their services are used by manufacturers, retailers, online sellers, healthcare organizations, and logistics providers to ensure products can be scanned and tracked across supply chains and sales channels.
A charge from GS1 US typically appears when a business purchases or renews a GS1 Company Prefix or individual GTINs/UPCs for their products. Other potential charges may relate to data services such as GS1 US Data Hub, educational courses, membership fees, or implementation support. Many of these fees are annual renewals, so you may see recurring charges on roughly the same date each year corresponding to your prefix license or membership renewal.
If you have questions about a GS1 US charge, first check your email for invoices or receipts from GS1 US and log into your GS1 US or GS1 US Data Hub account to review your active licenses and services. Verify whether the charge aligns with a recent prefix or GTIN purchase, renewal, or training registration. For further assistance, you can contact GS1 US customer support via phone or their website’s contact form, referencing your company name, GS1 Company Prefix, and invoice number to help them quickly locate your account and explain the billing details.
