Stamps.com Premier – FAQs

What are the new features available in Stamps.com Premier?

Stamps.com Premier is our most complete mailing and shipping solution. With Premier you can use your address books, Stamps.com reports and reference codes, printer preferences and the easy-to-use Stamps.com interface to manage all of your mailing and shipping from one convenient place.

Stamps.com Premier also simplifies the preparation and printing of Certified Mail™ and Return Receipt forms. Instead of filling out the Certified Mail form and the Return Receipt “green card” for each piece of mail, you can now use our custom-designed one-piece forms, to print your postage, addresses, the Certified Mail receipt and the green card all in one step.

How is Stamps.com Premier different from Stamps.com Pro (or the “Power Plan”)?

Loaded with our most advanced features (Account access for multiple users, Certified Mail processing, and more) Stamps.com Premier is designed for professional offices with specialized mailing and shipping needs. Stamps.com Premier also includes access to more reference codes (up to 50).

Stamps.com Pro is a complete USPS mailing and shipping solution that will meet the needs of most small business and home users. It enables you to print US postage for virtually any mail class and includes convenient integrations for small offices and valuable features for shippers, such as Hidden Postage™ and email shipment notification.

How do the Certified Mail forms work?

For the first time, you can send Certified Mail without having to fill out any forms by hand. With Stamps.com Certified Mail forms you can print Certified Mail and Return Receipt information, addresses, postage and your receipt in a single step.

We offer four different forms: the Certified Mail Label with Return Receipt (SDC-3910) is an 8 ½ x 11″ sheet with one set of Certified Mail labels – it is very flexible and can be used with regular or large envelopes, thick envelopes, flats, packages, etc. The Certified Mail Envelope with Return Receipt (SDC-3810) is more convenient when sending a standard #10 envelope or when your mail piece contents fit in the attached #11 envelope. We also offer Certified Mail Labels with Postage Receipt only (SDC-3710) and Certified Mail Labels with no Return or Postage Receipt (SDC-3610).

Do I still need to go to the Post Office if I use the Stamps.com Certified Mail forms?

You don‘t need to go to the Post Office to send a Certified Mail piece or receive a Return Receipt. However, if you need proof that your mail piece was sent, you must present the receipt with the mail piece for acceptance at your local Post Office to be postmarked with the date of mailing.

What does Stamps.com Premier cost?

$24.99 per month. No hidden fees, no long-term obligation.

Can I switch back to Stamps.com Pro if I try Premier?

Absolutely! There is no obligation at all. If you decide that Premier is not the right fit for your business, just switch back to Stamps.com Pro from within your software.

If you encounter any difficulty switching back from within the software, simply contact customer support via email or phone and we will switch your service back to Stamps.com Pro.
