What is GS1 Sunrise 2027?
GS1 Sunrise 2027 is a global retail deadline. From 1 January 2027, every point-of-sale system worldwide must be able to scan QR codes at checkout alongside traditional EAN and UPC barcodes. Brands can then replace the printed barcode on packaging with a QR code that links directly to product information, expiry dates, and more.
If you sell physical products, this tool helps you convert existing barcode data into a QR code you can test and download today. For Shopify merchants who need dynamic, trackable QR codes on packaging and marketing materials, see HypeQR for Shopify.
Traditional barcodes were designed for laser scanners in warehouses and checkout counters. QR codes work with standard smartphone cameras, which means customers can scan them without any special hardware. GS1 Sunrise 2027 is pushing most retailers to require 2D codes on products, so converting your existing barcodes now is a practical step toward that transition.
This tool reads the product number from your barcode image and generates a QR code with the same data. Upload any EAN, UPC, Code 128, or other common barcode format and the conversion happens instantly in your browser. No server upload, no account, no fees — download the result as PNG and drop it into your label design.
For Shopify merchants who want more from their product QR codes, HypeQR makes codes dynamic. Point the same printed code at a product page, a discount offer, or a review request, change the destination anytime, and track exactly how many customers scan each product.
