Digital Postage Meters
Or were you after:
More cost-effective and more efficient than an automatic stamping machine, a digital postage meter lets you weigh, frank, seal and brand your business mail.
We’ve partnered with Pitney Bowes to produce, install and maintain digital postage meters (DPM) which you can use to weigh mail and apply the correct postage.
The only mail items you can’t process with a DPM are parcels sent by ParcelPost Tracked. They require a barcode, and special postage included envelopes available at your local PostShop.
DPMs automatically update price changes so your mail will always carry the correct postage. They also have a four digit PIN to prevent pilfering of postage included envelopes, prepaid tickets and stamps.
The cost of a DPM varies depending on which model you choose and whether you decide to lease or buy. Loyalty discounts are available.
You can choose from two DPM packages:
Package 1
Free use of a Pitney Bowes DPM for four years or more if:
- your spend with New Zealand Post on a combination of domestic and international letters, ParcelPost and ParcelPost Fast (excluding any courier or tracked products or parcels over 1.5kg weight or 70mm thickness) is more than $100 (incl. GST) each month, and
- you sign up as a New Zealand Post account customer for a term of four years or more.
Package 2
A 5% discount on mail processed through your DPM leased or purchased through Pitney Bowes, including all letters, ParcelPost and ParcelPost Fast (less than 1.5kg in weight or 70mm in thickness).
The following conditions apply to both DPM packages:
- Your contract for your leased or purchased DPM will be subject to Pitney Bowes’ terms and conditions
- You need to have a New Zealand Post Account
- If you accept either package, any current product discounts you have with New Zealand Post will not apply for mail processed through the DPM
- You cannot use the DPM for ParcelPost Tracked, which must be paid for with ParcelPost tickets
- Currently, ParcelPost discounts over 5% will not apply on any parcel mail put through a DPM
- Terms and conditions for these DPM packages apply.
Delivery
Once an order is confirmed, Pitney Bowes aim to deliver and install your DPM within three to five working days. If you don’t have a current New Zealand Post Account this may take slightly longer.
