Issue

When adding postage on the Connect+ series or SendPro P, the message "We could not process your payment" appears.

Cause

There are not enough funds available in your Pitney Bowes Reserve Account or Purchase Power Account.

Resolution

Your USPS postage balance may be paid for either through a pre-paid Pitney Bowes Reserve Account or a Purchase Power line of credit. Whichever funding source is being used does not have enough funds or credit available to pay for the amount of postage you are trying to add.

  • If you use a Reserve Account, add funds to your Reserve Account.
  • If you use a Purchase Power account, either make a payment on your Purchase Power account, or request a Purchase Power credit limit increase.
