Office Solutions Cost of Service

Simple Pricing.
Significant Savings.

No sign up fee. No monthly commitment. No hidden fees. Envelopes included.

The cost of our service is simple too: You only pay for what you use. No subscription fees, monthly minimums or maintenance fees. The cost per piece in the chart below includes USPS Postage, USPS Certified Mail Fees, our cost of service, and window envelopes. Others charge separately for envelopes, have hidden fees, and do not provide automatic refunds of postage for Certified Mail pieces that are created but not mailed. Automatic refunds can reduce your costs significantly.

Our cost of service depends on your monthly volume. Everything you need, with improved performance vs. Green Cards, for less than the cost of using Green Cards. This doesn’t begin to count the savings in labor and other office expenses when it comes to managing Certified Mail, and the benefits of faster Proof of Acceptance and Proof of Delivery.

Paying for the service is similar to using a postage meter. During the account set-up, you prepay your initial, anticipated Certified Mail® expenses, and set a level for automatic replenishment of your account via ACH from a business checking account. Your deposits with us are held in a separate Trust Account by BB&T bank and are covered by a Fidelity Bond. You can view your account online, and all balances are returned at your request. In addition, we do not retain any banking information in our system. All Account and Routing numbers are immediately transmitted to our service provider, Forte Payment Systems. They return a secure encrypted token that is used to process any transaction. This is the same process required by all ACH and Credit Card processors. Credit cards are not accepted at this time.

Certified Mail Envelopes

Our Certified Mail® envelopes are preprinted with the green Certified Mail banner along the top edge, and come with a large, clear window that enables USPS scanners to scan our unique cover sheet inside – with the recipient and return addresses, electronic postage and USPS bar codes. The envelopes are provided at no charge in #10, 6"x 9" and 9" x 12" sizes. You can also source your own.
