Simplifying every step of preparing, tracking and managing USPS® Certified Mail
Step 1: Preparing
Eliminate manual forms and processing.
With PitneyShip software, you can eliminate manual forms and processing, streamlining your mailing process. You’ll no longer struggle with filling out complicated USPS forms by hand - simply log in to PitneyShip from anywhere and start sending Certified Mail with electronic Return Receipts.
Batch processing for larger mailings.
Easily mail certified pieces in bulk, by the dozens, hundreds, or even thousands. Simply import your receipients names and addresses, and PitneyShip will quickly generate Certified Mail cover sheets (for certified window envelopes) or certified labels (for larger items or packages).
Step 2: Tracking
Proof of acceptance without going to the post office.
Once your Certified Mail piece receives its first outbound scan by the USPS, you will have proof that the mail piece has been accepted. This eliminates the need for Firm Mailing Books. Tracking events up to delivery or returned to sender are marked as undeliverable, which is instantly visible in the tracking dashboard.
Return Receipt Signatures without the hassle of green cards.
The electronic Return Receipt is a PDF replacement of the physical green card and is automatically uploaded into PitneyShip. No more wondering if green cards were lost. The PDF includes the city, state, time, and date that the mail piece was delivered, plus a digital copy of the signature of the person who accepted the piece. You can also add a reference number like account, docket, or client-matter to make it simple finding the signature you need.
Step 3: Managing
Signature storage and retrieval without digging through paper files.
You won’t need to waste time searching through folders and files for the green card that may or may not be there. PitneyShip makes it simple and quick to find the exact signature files you want. You can search for signatures by tracking number, name, address, or a reference number of your choice.
Access for every employee at every location, even home.
As an application powered by the Shipping 360® platform, employees can access PitneyShip from anywhere, anytime. This means users can process, track, and retrieve signatures from the office or from home. For administrators it’s simple to add and manage user permissions from a single source. All postage accounting and tracking is also centralized, so you not only get a complete, singular view of your certified spend, you also gain the control to manage it.
