Stamps.com is an independent subsidiary of UPS and USPS. An American company, founded in 1996 and currently headquartered in California, Stamps.com is very popular with the American eCommerce market. The company was one of the first internet-based postage companies and thanks to an effective online marketing campaign have become of the best-known brands both in America and internationally.
Stamps.com’s principal service is to allow customers to download and print US mail stamps and postage information. The idea is to remove the need for visits to the US Post Office. With this service, customers can send letters, parcels and invoices via the USPS service either nationally (within the US) or internationally. Account-holders receive a digital scale to allow packets and parcels to be weighed to appraise the correct postage for each item. Customers pay a monthly subscription of $17.99 for access to their website and mobile application and certain online discounts are available. New customers can access a free one-month trial, with $5 free postage. Additionally, Stamps.com now owns UK-based company MetaPack which specialises in delivery management technology for eCommerce retailers and brands.
