Everyone who uses it understands the value of certified mail. If you’re sending something really important, you need proof that it was not only delivered to the right address but that it was signed for by the recipient. Details – and dependability – matter. Are you ready to upgrade your mail services? If you’re still using those green certified mail cards, you’ll be happy to know that today, there’s a better way. It’s called e-Certify, from ConnectSuite.

Let’s take a quick look at what it costs to send a first-class letter as certified mail with a return receipt. As of March 1, 2018, the stamp for a 1 oz. first-class envelope costs $.49. Adding certified mail adds another $3.35. Adding the return receipt, which serves as proof that the recipient accepted the delivery, adds $2.75. So, all told, it’s $6.59.

Now let’s take a look at the cost savings of using e-Certify. When you use e-Certify, the return receipt costs just $1.45. That’s a savings of $1.30 on every return receipt that you’re sending. Why is that? Well, the fact is that processing return receipts electronically is easier, faster, and cheaper. And “cheaper for the post office” means they can pass those savings on to you.

Come to think of it, going electronic is better for the environment, too. Using less paper (in this case, green certified mail cards) is always a smart decision. Imagine – no more handwritten forms. With e-Certify, you simply enter your information online and print the certified mail barcode using either a regular printer or a desktop label printer. You can also access specific delivery information or images of the recipients’ signatures online. It’s easy and reliable. All of your receipts are stored in the cloud and can be accessed anywhere via desktop computer or mobile device using e- certify.

Preparing your Certified Mail electronically not only saves time and money, e-Certify enables you to easily access delivery information and images of recipient signatures, all of which are stored securely in the cloud.

The ConnectSuite e-Certify process is simple, USPS-compliant, secure, digitally traceable and cost-effective. The 21st century certified mail solution is about saving time, saving money, and saving you headaches. Welcome to the future.
