Will transparent labels work well for barcodes?

Yes, as long as you add a white base under the barcode for contrast.


Readable Labels

Barcodes and QR codes require high contrast to scan properly. When using transparent labels, we strongly recommend adding a solid white base behind the barcode area. This ensures that the black lines of the code stand out clearly, regardless of the packaging color. Without this white backing, scanning reliability can be affected. You can set this up directly in the editor when preparing your design. It’s a simple step that ensures your label remains both beautiful and functional.
