What is a barcode (EAN or UPC) and what is an ISRC?
EAN or UPC
This is an internationally unique product code often seen as a “barcode” on products. There is a European (EAN) and a US system (UPC). If you do not have your own, we will provide you one.
ISRC
It is an internationally unique code for music which we need to track your song through the worldwide shop system. If you do not have one, we will provide you one.
We provide EAN/UPC and ISRC codes for free.
Note:
- If you decide to join iMusician but already published your music through a different distributor, don't forget to insert your ISRC codes when you upload your release on our platform;
- The barcode we issue can not be used for physical products.
If you need more info about specific terms, please have a look at our glossary.
