Use the Direct Link upcs.io/Your-Code

Every UPCS code has its own address on the website. You form it by writing the site name, a slash and the code. Opening that address takes you straight to the lookup page.

The form

upcs.io/<code>

For the code PK-1A2B-3C4D, the address is upcs.io/PK-1A2B-3C4D.

Steps

1. Take the full code, including the country prefix and hyphens.
2. Type or paste upcs.io/ into your browser's address bar.
3. Add the code straight after the slash.
4. Press Enter to open the lookup page.

When this is useful

• You want to type a link by hand, for example on a printed label or a business card.
• You want to put a clickable address into a message, email or web page.
• You like to avoid the search box.

What you see

The lookup page shows the code, country, coordinates, latitude and longitude, with options to Open in Map, Get Directions, Share / Copy link and Copy coordinates. Finding a location from a code describes it in detail.

Avoid mistakes

• Copy and paste where possible, because letters and digits can look alike when handwritten.
• Do not add spaces inside the code.
• If the page does not show a place, check the code with verifying a code someone sent you.

Other ways to open a code

You can also paste a code into the search box, or send people a link using copy the share link.
