Permit Mail Payments

New ways to pay for permit postage can save you time and money.

The Opportunity
While the USPS charges $220 a year for permit fees, companies often spend more in terms of time and effort to manage their permit account.

Mailstream Best Practices

• Streamline your postal-payment process
  Better cash management helps offset rising fees and higher postage expenses. Instead of tying up your funds in advance of each mailing, you can pay later for permit mail.
• Presort your mail for savings
  You can save even more when your mail qualifies for the workshare discounts available through presorting.
