In a renewed, direct agreement between the USPS and Stamps.com\u2019s parent company, Auctane, we can now offer our customers lower shipping rates than ever before.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the new USPS rates?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Our new agreement with USPS gives our valued customers the lowest USPS rates in the industry. Users can now expect savings of up to 89% off retail rates and up to 15% off Commercial Plus Pricing (CPP) on Priority Mail\u00ae. Stamps.com offers all the mail classes and delivery services of USPS right from the convenience of your computer.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When will rates go into effect?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n<p>The new USPS rates have gone into effect as of October 19, 2022. Stamps.com customers automatically have access to these new rates. They do not need to take any steps to access them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holiday Surcharges<\/h2>\n\n<p>In addition to automatically getting discounted rates, customers can (thankfully!) avoid high holiday surcharges this season. One thing to note, these holiday surcharges don\u2019t apply to the weight and zone prices at CPP. But if it\u2019s below CPP, you can avoid these surcharges!<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does this mean for Stamps.com customers?<\/h2>\n\n<p>As a Stamps.com customer, our renewed agreement with USPS gives you more savings on shipping costs than ever before. We want to ensure that our customers can manage their shipping operations efficiently, and our new agreement with USPS is another way we\u2019ll continue to keep your shipping process running smoothly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stamps.com today announces the next phase of its decades-long partnership with the United States Post Office (USPS).
