We're replacing some of our letter products

Why are we making these changes?

Adding barcodes improves our operational efficiency, so we can pass the cost savings on to our customers
Barcodes also allow us to have greater transparency of items through our network for tracking purposes

Why choose PPIs?

If you’re sending large volumes of mail in the UK or internationally, Printed Postage Impressions (PPIs) offer a convenient alternative to stamps or franking machines. You can save time and money by printing postage directly onto labels or envelopes.

With PPIs you can cut costs and save time by printing postage in-house, directly onto the envelopes and labels used for mailing. There’s no need for extra equipment – simply download and print your postage mark, then you’re ready to go.

To use PPIs, you need to be an Online Business Account holder with a Credit Account. You’ll also need to apply for a PPI licence.
