Introduction
GS1 Source is a framework for businesses to share product
information with customers through web and mobile applications. It is
standards-based, scalable and interoperable.
Companies can use GS1 Source to share information about their
products in the cloud. Application developers can then integrate this
product data in their web and mobile applications.
