xengoroute vs GS1 UK Premium QR.

GS1 UK's Premium QR is official, £7/month and genuinely conformant — and your codes live on GS1's domain, with no API and no scan events. xengoroute is the tier you move to when you outgrow it.

Credit where due

Premium QR is a good start — that's the point

GS1 UK's Premium QR is official, costs £7/month on top of your membership, and runs on GS1's own genuinely conformant resolver. If you're taking your first step into 2D, it's a perfectly sensible one — and because it's built on the same open standard we implement, nothing about starting there locks you in. This page exists for the day you hit its ceiling.

Same standard, same GTINs, no re-licensing — your GS1 membership and numbers carry straight over. That's why we call it graduation, not switching.
