USPS Debuts International Package Discount Program

The U.S. Postal Service has launched a program to give international package mailers postage discounts and customization.

Mailers can participate by opening an Express Mail Corporate Account (EMCA) that qualifies them for discounts when sending Global Express Mail items.

Larger discounts are available to mailers who use their accounts to send out at least 600 items or spend at least $12,000 in Global Express Mail postage a year. The size of the discount will vary by the customer’s volume or revenue and will be adjusted each quarter based upon how much they actually mailed during the preceding quarter.

Mailers can participate by opening an Express Mail Corporate Account (EMCA) that qualifies them for discounts when sending Global Express Mail items.

Higher volume international mailers — which include users of Global Express Guaranteed, Global Express Mail, Global Priority Mail and Global Air Parcel Post — will be able to customize the service with specialized labeling and will receive assistance with customs regulations, as well as access to an address correction service. Rates for these new services will be negotiable.
