Understanding UPS Single Payer

Starting June 25, 2025 you’ll pay for discounted UPS® labels through PitneyShip® software using a credit card instead of an invoice.

You will be able to access the same discounted rates you previously used, with the convenience of paying as you go rather than being invoiced by UPS at a later date.
