Price Tag Label Quick Navigation

Make Pricing Clear and Products Easier to Manage

A price tag label can do more than display a dollar amount. The same label may help identify the product, connect it to a point-of-sale system, communicate a sale and simplify inventory handling.

Show the Selling Price

Clearly identify regular prices, sale prices, clearance prices, multi-item offers or special-event pricing.

Print Product Information

Include item names, SKUs, sizes, colors, product numbers, vendor numbers and short descriptions.

Add Barcodes or QR Codes

Print scannable codes for point-of-sale systems, inventory tracking, online product information or promotions.

Update Existing Prices

Cover an old printed price with a new pricing label instead of replacing the entire package, tag or sign.

Common Uses for Price Tag Labels

Retail Stores and Boutiques

Label clothing, accessories, gifts, housewares, décor, packaged products and other store merchandise.

Handmade Products

Add prices and product details to candles, soaps, crafts, jewelry, artwork and other handmade items.

Flea Markets and Craft Fairs

Prepare merchandise before an event so shoppers can see prices without needing to ask for each item.

Garage and Estate Sales

Print or handwrite prices in advance to organize large numbers of household items efficiently.

Sale and Clearance Events

Use brightly colored or removable labels to distinguish temporary discounts from regular pricing.

Inventory and Warehouse Sales

Add prices, item numbers, barcodes and internal identification to overstock, returned or discontinued merchandise.

Choose the Best Price Tag Label Format

Price labels are available on sheets, on rolls or custom printed. Your best option depends on the printer you use, how many items you need to label and whether the information changes from one product to another.

Format Best For Printing Method Application
Blank Sheet Labels Small batches, changing prices, many products and occasional sales Compatible desktop laser or inkjet printer Usually applied by hand
Blank Roll Labels Regular production, barcode printing and higher label volumes Dedicated inkjet or barcode label printer Hand, dispenser or applicator
Custom Printed Labels Repeated pricing, promotional messages or standardized barcode labels Professionally printed for you Hand or machine application

Price Labels on Sheets

Sheet labels are convenient when you need different prices, SKUs or product names in smaller quantities. Print an entire sheet of one design or divide the sheet among several products.

Choose a Price Label Material

The material affects appearance, printer compatibility, durability and how easily a label can be read. Select a material designed for your printer and appropriate for the product or package surface.

White Uncoated

A practical, economical material for straightforward prices, item numbers, text and many standard retail applications.

White Semi-Gloss

Provides a smoother, more polished appearance while maintaining a white background for strong print contrast.

High-Gloss

Creates a reflective retail finish that can help full-color artwork and promotional pricing stand out.

Brown Kraft

A natural-looking option for handmade goods, crafts, candles, soap, gifts and rustic product packaging.

Clear Labels

Allow more of the product or package color to remain visible. Clear labels are better suited to text or decorative pricing than many barcode applications.

Synthetic Labels

Provide improved resistance to moisture, handling and tearing for products used in more demanding environments.

Fluorescent Colors

Bright colors can help temporary promotions, clearance prices and special-sale merchandise attract attention.

Price Labels with Barcodes and QR Codes

Price labels can combine readable pricing with UPC barcodes, internal inventory barcodes or QR codes. Successful scanning depends on the code size, print quality, background contrast and blank space surrounding the code.

Barcode Printing Tips

  • Use a white or very light background for strong contrast.
  • Do not reduce the barcode below the recommended size.
  • Leave an open quiet zone on each side of the barcode.
  • Use high-quality print settings with crisp edges.
  • Avoid placing barcodes across curves, seams or package corners.
  • Scan test labels before printing the full quantity.

What Can Be Included?

  • Retail selling price
  • UPC or internal barcode
  • SKU or item number
  • Size, color or product variation
  • Department or vendor code
  • QR code linking to product information
  • Sale or clearance message

Use a White Background for Reliable Barcode Contrast

White labels are generally the safest choice for scannable barcodes because they create strong contrast between the dark bars and the background. Always test the finished barcode with the scanners used in your business.

Permanent or Removable Price Labels?

The correct adhesive depends on how long the label should stay attached and whether the original package must remain clean after a sale or promotion ends.

Permanent Adhesive Labels

Permanent labels are appropriate when the price or barcode should remain attached through normal handling and sale.

Common uses include:

  • Regular retail pricing
  • Product identification
  • Inventory barcodes
  • Packaged merchandise
  • Items that will not be repriced

Removable Adhesive Labels

Removable labels may be preferable when the temporary price must later be removed without intentionally leaving a permanent pricing label behind.

Common uses include:

  • Temporary sale pricing
  • Clearance events
  • Consignment merchandise
  • Reusable containers
  • Products returning to regular price

Always Test Removal on the Actual Surface

Removability can vary with the surface, coating, application pressure, temperature and amount of time the label remains attached. Test a sample on the actual product before labeling a large quantity.

How to Design an Effective Price Tag Label

The price should be immediately recognizable, while secondary information should remain readable without making the label look crowded.

Label Element Recommendation
Price Make it the largest or most prominent piece of text.
Font Use a clear, readable typeface rather than an ornate decorative font.
Contrast Use dark text on a light background or another high-contrast combination.
Sale Message Use words such as Sale or Clearance only when they help the customer understand the offer.
Barcode Maintain sufficient size, contrast and quiet space around the code.
Bleed and Margins Keep important text away from the label edge and follow the template guidelines.

Common Price Label Mistakes to Avoid

Mistake Possible Problem Better Approach
Using text that is too small Customers may struggle to read the price or product details. Simplify the design and make the price prominent.
Choosing the wrong printer material Ink may smear, toner may fail to fuse or sheets may feed poorly. Select labels designed for the printer technology being used.
Printing barcodes on a low-contrast background The barcode may not scan reliably. Use a white background and test with the intended scanner.
Using permanent adhesive for a temporary sale The label may be difficult to remove when regular pricing returns. Consider a removable label and test it on the product.
Applying over dust, oil or moisture The label may lift or fall off. Apply labels to a clean, dry surface whenever possible.
Skipping a test print Prices or barcodes may print outside the label boundaries. Print on plain paper first and compare it with the label sheet.

Price Tag Label FAQs

Can I print price tag labels with a desktop printer?

Yes. Blank sheet labels can be printed with many compatible desktop laser and inkjet printers. Choose a material designed for your printer type and test the alignment before printing the full quantity.

What information can I include on a price label?

A price label can include the selling price, product name, SKU, item number, size, color, barcode, QR code, department code and sale or clearance message.

What size label is best for a price tag?

Small 1-inch circles and compact rectangles work well for prices and short item numbers. Choose a larger label when you need room for a barcode, QR code, product description or several lines of information.

Can price labels include barcodes?

Yes. Price labels can include UPC and internal inventory barcodes. Use a high-contrast white background, maintain the required barcode dimensions and test the finished labels with your scanner.

Should I use permanent or removable price labels?

Use permanent labels when the price or barcode should remain attached. Consider removable labels for temporary sales, consignment products or merchandise that will later return to its regular price.

Are fluorescent labels good for sale pricing?

Fluorescent labels can help clearance items, temporary discounts and promotional prices stand out. Make sure the printed text remains easy to read against the selected color.

Can I cover an old price with a new label?

Yes, provided the new label is large enough and sufficiently opaque to hide the previous price. Test the label over the existing tag or package before applying it to all items.

Do you offer custom printed price labels?

Yes. Custom printed labels may be appropriate when you need a repeated price, message, barcode or design on a larger quantity of labels.

Can I request samples before ordering?

Yes. Testing samples is recommended because product surfaces, coatings, textures, temperature and length of application can affect adhesion and removability.
