There is a lot going on, so here’s a snapshot of key dates to remember.

• June 30, 2024: The USPS will discontinue all IBI meters after this date.* To remain compliant, you must switch to an IMI-compliant solution.
• December 31, 2024: If your device is still non-compliant after June 30, a grace period will be provided through this date. During this time, you can continue using your current meter but are required to migrate to an IMI-compliant solution to avoid potential disruptions to your mailing operation. After this date, IBI meters will not be able to print valid postage.*
• June 30, 2026: DM Infinity™ will be withdrawn from service at this time through a USPS-approved extension. We are fast at work to deliver a solution that meets both your needs and USPS regulations. Find information and updates on your DM Infinity replacement here.

Postage and transaction data that the USPS gets from IBI technology is limited, and it inhibits them from fully automating some back-office operations (such as refunds and proper postage payment validation).

The IMI standard will provide much more detailed real-time transaction data, enabling the USPS to automate operations, employ better security standards, and ensure correct postage is used. This is not the first technology migration the USPS has mandated, and it certainly won’t be the last. We’re here to make the transition as seamless as possible.
