Typing product details by hand takes time, especially when you are listing products with UPCs, ISBNs, EANs, or other scannable barcodes.
That is exactly why List Perfectly includes Barcode Scanning inside Listing Assistant. Instead of starting from a blank listing, resellers can scan a barcode or enter the UPC manually and let List Perfectly help create a ready-to-edit listing faster.
Barcode Scanning is built for real reseller workflows. Whether you are listing books, media, retail arbitrage finds, wholesale products, cosmetics, packaged goods, electronics, toys, games, or other inventory with a barcode, List Perfectly gives you a faster way to start the listing without typing every detail from scratch.

What Is List Perfectly Barcode Scanning?
List Perfectly Barcode Scanning is a Listing Assistant feature that helps resellers create listings from a product barcode or UPC.
Instead of manually typing a title, description, brand, size, color, material, and other product information, you can scan the barcode and let List Perfectly search product information and images for millions of items worldwide.
List Perfectly is backed by more than 1.5 billion barcode entries, giving resellers a powerful starting point when creating listings for products with scannable codes.
The result is not a locked, final listing. It is a ready-to-edit listing that you can review, customize, and improve before saving to your LP Catalog.
How Barcode Scanning Works in List Perfectly
Using Barcode Scanning is simple.
Click Add Listing in List Perfectly, then choose Barcode from Listing Assistant. From there, you can scan the barcode using the camera on your phone, your laptop camera, a webcam, a USB barcode scanner, or manually enter the UPC.
Once the barcode is entered, Listing Assistant searches product databases and helps generate a listing with as much information as possible.
Depending on the item and available product information, List Perfectly can help fill in fields such as:
Title
Description
Brand
Size
Color
Material
Keywords
Item details
After the listing is created, you stay in control. Review the listing, edit what needs to be changed, add your photos, confirm the condition, include measurements when needed, and save the listing to your LP Catalog.
From there, you can crosslist the item to supported marketplaces or keep it in your catalog to finish later.
Why Barcode Scanning Saves Resellers Time
Barcode Scanning helps solve one of the most repetitive parts of listing: starting from nothing.
If you sell inventory with barcodes, you already know how much time can go into typing product names, brands, sizes, colors, and descriptions over and over again. Barcode Scanning gives you a faster starting point so you can spend less time on manual entry and more time reviewing, improving, and publishing listings.
This is especially useful for resellers who list:
Books and media
Retail arbitrage products
Wholesale inventory
Packaged goods
Cosmetics and beauty products
Toys and games
Electronics and accessories
Products with UPCs, ISBNs, EANs, or other scannable barcodes
Barcode Scanning does not replace your reseller judgment. It helps you move faster while still giving you the control to edit titles, descriptions, item specifics, condition notes, photos, and keywords before publishing.
Works on Mobile and Desktop
List Perfectly Barcode Scanning works on mobile and desktop.
You can scan with your phone camera, use your laptop camera or webcam, scan with a USB barcode scanner, or manually type the UPC into the barcode field.
This gives resellers flexibility depending on how they list. If you are working from your phone, you can scan with your phone camera. If you are working at a desk, you can use your laptop camera, webcam, or USB scanner. If the barcode is damaged or hard to scan, you can type the UPC manually.
No separate mobile app is required. List Perfectly is mobile-friendly and works from your browser.
Use Barcode Scanning with the Full List Perfectly Workflow
Barcode Scanning is even more powerful when used with the rest of your List Perfectly workflow.
After you create a listing with Barcode Scanning, you can save it to your LP Catalog, edit it, organize it, and crosslist it to supported marketplaces. You can also use other List Perfectly tools to build a stronger listing process.
For example, you can pair Barcode Scanning with:
Listing Assistant to create listings faster with AI-powered tools.
Templates to keep listing information consistent for similar inventory.
Inventory Labels to organize, scan, and locate products faster once they are listed.
Measurement Templates when an item needs clear size or dimension information.
Crosslisting to publish your listings across supported marketplaces without starting from scratch.
This is where the time savings really starts to build. Barcode Scanning helps you create the listing faster, and the LP Catalog helps you manage, organize, and crosslist that inventory more efficiently.
Always Review Before Publishing
Barcode Scanning gives you a faster starting point, but every reseller should still review the listing before saving or publishing.
Check the title, description, brand, category, condition, item specifics, photos, measurements, and any details that affect buyer confidence or marketplace visibility.
Product database information can help you move faster, but your reseller knowledge still matters. The best listings are fast to create and accurate for the buyer.
