Barcodes. We all know what they are and what they do. Those black lines that carry data about the product you hold in your hands will never change. ...Right? **Wrong!** Why acquiesce  to a boring **plain old barcode** when you could have a real, workable barcode that is **just as creative** as the very product it was printed on?

Take the opportunity to **incorporate your brand message**, logo, or mascot into your barcode for added flair! **Get some inspiration** with these incredibly creative ideas from Design Barcode, a Japanese company that creates wacky and crazy barcodes!

## 1. Rainy Day Barcode

## 2. Cute Koala Barcode 3. Surfing Dude Barcode

## 4. Ripped Up Barcode

## 5. Pig and Chicken Barcode

## 6. Sweet Sugar Barcode

As you can see from these examples, you can do **virtually anything you want** with your barcode, as long as you keep those little black lines intact for the scanners to read! Get creative! Put your **awesome barcode** on whatever you want, [gift cards](https://www.plasticprinters.com/giftcards/), [loyalty cards](https://www.plasticprinters.com/loyalty_cards/), [membership cards](https://www.plasticprinters.com/membershipcards/), [ID cards](https://www.plasticprinters.com/idbadges/) and more!
