Retailers have been using our EANs to identify their products for 40 years - they’re the numbers you see under a barcode. The EAN is such industry-standard product identifier. EANs are administered by and can be obtained through us. EANs may also be referred to as UPCs (Universal Product Codes), EANs (European Article Numbers) or JANs (Japanese Article Numbers) and also includes ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers – obtainable through your local ISBN Agency). EAN (ASIN) (barcodes) for Amazon are no different, and can be used to uniquely identify all the information about specific products listed on the retailer site.
