Why Verification Matters

Courier scanners reject low-quality barcodes, causing delivery failures, complaints, and marketplace penalties. Verification takes 10 seconds per label and prevents costly mistakes.

How to Verify

  • Use Google Lens or a free barcode scanner app
  • Scan the printed barcode — tracking number should appear clearly
  • If unreadable, reprint from the original PDF source
  • Ensure no folds, tears, or moisture on the barcode area
