### 09/01/2020 - New Pricing

**Starting 09/01/2020** we'll be raising our per-code prices in order to absorb higher operational costs to continue providing the best possible service to you.&#x20;

**New pricing will be as follows:**

| Pack size | Pack Cost | Price/Code |
| --------- | --------- | ---------- |
| 1 code    | $5.00     | $5.00/code |
| 10 codes  | $10.00    | $1.00/code |
| 50 codes  | $25.00    | $0.50/code |
| 200 codes | $50.00    | $0.25/code |
| 500 codes | $100.00   | $0.50/code |

### 08/15/2020 - New 13 digit "EAN" Codes by default

We just pushed an update that now formats codes as a 13 digit international "EAN" code by default. Amazon will accept both the 12 digit "UPC" code format, as well as the 13 digit "EAN" format.&#x20;

This update will help merchants that utilize the svgs that are generated from the barcode field.&#x20;
