In this article, we'll explore the benefits of USPS Informed Delivery for both consumers and businesses and take a closer look at how it works for mailers. Let's dive in!

 

What is Informed Delivery?

USPS Informed Delivery is a service that allows users to preview their incoming mail and manage their packages digitally. For mailers and businesses, Informed Delivery offers the option to conduct interactive campaigns. Mailers can include custom images and a website link in the user's email digest or on the USPS Mobile® App. This allows businesses to engage users and generate additional impressions and interactions.

 

Benefits for Your Consumers

  • Convenience at Their Fingertips: Informed Delivery saves your customers time and effort. Instead of shuffling through physical mail, they can quickly glance through their electronic mail preview. This helps them prioritize important documents, plan for packages, and manage their time more efficiently.
  • Stay Secure: Your customers can put their worries about unexpected or fraudulent mail to rest with Informed Delivery. By reviewing the mailpiece images, they can identify any unusual or suspicious items. This feature keeps them alert and helps protect them against identity theft and other fraudulent activities.
  • Digital Organization Made Easy: With Informed Delivery, your customers get a digital record of their mailpieces. This makes it a breeze for them to locate important documents, track packages, and keep a neat record of all their postal activities. Say goodbye to paper clutter and hello to a more organized digital approach!

 

Informed Delivery for Mailers
