# Can I upload my own barcodes?

Yes, you can use your own barcodes combined with our coupon solution.  
  
If you own a POS which allows you to generate unique barcode values you can generate those codes in the POS and upload them into Coupontools so your coupons are directly scannable at your POS.  
  
*   First create your coupon with the coupon builder.
  
*   Go to the "Validation methods" under "After claim" and turn on 'Display your own imported validation codes'.

*   A button that says 'Manage your own validation codes' will pop up right next to it.
