Using 
Electronic 
Confirmation 
Services
The United States Post Office (USPS) provides three types of confirmation 
services: 
• Delivery Confirmation - shows you when the postal carrier delivered 
the mail.
• Signature Confirmation - shows you who signed for the mail.
• Certified Mail - provides you with proof that you mailed the item. 
Each of these services has its own barcode labels. Using preprinted bar-
code labels provided by Pitney Bowes, you can electronically process and 
submit records for the three types of USPS Confirmation Services to the 
Pitney Bowes Data Center.
Overview
Postage Calculation for Confirmation Services
As soon as you weigh your piece of mail and select the class and service, 
your mailing system automatically calculates the postage.
Discounts for Confirmation Services
• When you use any of these services with your mailing system and send 
the barcodes electronically over the phone line, you get a discount on 
the cost of the service. 
• In some cases, like adding Electronic Delivery Confirmation to a Priority 
letter, you only pay the postage required for Priority mail. 
Sending Your Records to Pitney Bowes
Your system stores up to 100 of your barcode records and automatically 
connects to Pitney Bowes and uploads these records either at the sched-
uled time you specified during set up, or whenever you have processed the 
maximum number of pieces of mail on the system.
Tracking Information on the Internet
• After 24 hours you can track your mail on the internet using your Pitney 
Bowes Postage By Phone® Meter Payment System account number 
and the barcode number. Refer to the Contact Information List at the 
front of this guide for more information.
• You can also track your mail by going to the Postal Service’s web site at 
www.usps.com.
