At GS1 Denmark, we invoice many of our services once a year – in January.

Want to avoid surprises, invoicing hassles, and paying for more than you actually need?

Read on for three tips on how to sail through the next annual invoicing period.

‍

1: Update your information and avoid hassle

Make sure your company and billing information is up to date. For example, check that the email address is correct, the PO number is working, etc. This ensures a more efficient billing process for you (and us) – completely hassle-free.

Update your information on My GS1 by December 31st – or even better, do it today. ‍

2: Save money by cleaning up your data

To avoid paying for irrelevant data, we recommend that you, as a data provider in GS1Trade Sync, withdraw your products when they are no longer current. ‍

If you are a data recipient in GS1Trade Sync, remember to regularly review all your subscriptions. This way, you also avoid being invoiced for data that is no longer relevant to you.

For those unsure how to sort and delete subscriptions in GS1Trade Sync, we have created a short 1-minute video guide.

3: Understand your pricing and avoid surprises

When you receive your annual invoice from us, the price may vary from previous years – which is perfectly normal. This is usually because your usage of a specific GS1 service has changed (up or down). The price of GS1’s data-supported services, such as GS1Trade Sync and GS1Trade Packaging, is consumption-based.

Please also note that GS1 Denmark’s prices are adjusted on an ongoing basis in accordance with the general terms and conditions and user terms for GS1 Trade Services – at a minimum annually based on the net price index. ‍
