Stamps and postage paid

The traditional postage paid system makes use of postage stamps. It is proof of pre-payment in the form of a label of the items you have sent by post.

You can find a huge variety of stamps in our Online Store.

Postage paid is the ideal solution for regular mailings of very large numbers of letters and printouts.

The mail will be dealt with in the Bulk-Mail Centres, together with the corresponding delivery note.

This mail is identified by the rectangle mechanically printed on the upper right-hand corner of the envelope.
