What are Tracking Services

The United States Post Office (USPS) provides three types of tracking services:

Each of these services has its own tracking number labels. Using preprinted tracking number 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.

Your system automatically calculates the postage amount based on the class and tracking service.

NOTE: You cannot change this postage value.
