USPS Commerce Platform Discounts Active Now

Update 10/5/2022 at: 2pm - we finally activated our platform discount rates. You should see the new rates if you print on or after 2pm or so.

USPS has gracefully approved Teapplix as a Commerce Platform. As a result, we are now able to offer all our customers discounted USPS rates that are below CPP. For more details about USPS pricing rules, please visit this help page.

These zip codes are special and discounts do not apply. They are all priced at CPP.

Additional discounts may be offered from time to time and we will announce them as they come.

Notice that for other mail classes, there will be a normal holiday increase as announced by USPS.

Our eCommerce platform rates start on Oct 4th, 2022. Starting this Sunday, Oct 2nd, your Teapplix USPS rate will have a holiday increase, this will last until October 3rd, 11:59 pm central time.

So please plan your shipping accordingly for the next few days. You may be able to save money by delaying USPS shipment next Monday to Tuesday.

Also as part of this change that Teapplix is approved as a USPS Commerce Platform, we will not be able to support Endicia as a PC postage provider. We allowed printing labels using Endicia account from our old user interface currently. Starting Nov 1st, 2022 you will not be able to do so anymore because we cannot build commerce platform support into Endicia.
