Stamps.com, an American company founded in 1996 and headquartered in California, is a prominent player in the American eCommerce market. It has gained international recognition through effective online marketing campaigns. As an independent subsidiary of UPS and USPS, Stamps.com offers a valuable service to customers.
The primary service provided by Stamps.com is the ability to download and print US mail stamps and postage information, eliminating the need for visits to the US Post Office. This service covers both domestic and international shipments, including letters, parcels, and invoices. Account-holders receive a digital scale to accurately weigh packages and determine the correct postage.
Customers pay a monthly subscription fee of $17.99 for access to the Stamps.com website and mobile application, which offers various online discounts. New customers can enjoy a free one-month trial, including $5 of free postage. Notably, Stamps.com has expanded its reach by acquiring MetaPack, a UK-based company specializing in delivery management technology for eCommerce retailers and brands. This acquisition strengthens Stamps.com’s presence in the eCommerce industry.
