More cost-effective and efficient than stocking prepaid products, a digital postage meter lets you weigh, frank, seal and brand your business mail.
We’ve contracted with Pitney Bowes to produce, install, and maintain digital postage meters (DPMs) which you can use to weigh mail and apply the correct postage.
Use of a DPM allows you to receive discounts on postage for your domestic mail and all international mail items. 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.
You pay for your own purchase or lease of a DPM and receive at least 5% discount for items processed through your DPM.
DPM Conditions
Discounts on postage received when using your DPM menu, are:
| Domestic Letters | International Letters | International Parcels |
|---|---|---|
| 5% | 5% |
10% |
- The use of your DPM will be subject to the DPM supplier’s terms and conditions.
- You must be an NZ Post business customer with an NZ Post Account.
- Any product discounts you have under a customer contract with NZ Post will not apply for mail processed through the DPM.
- Our other DPM terms and conditions apply.
- Terms for our Free DPM package continue to apply to customers using that package.
Delivery
Once an order is confirmed, your DPM supplier aims to deliver and install your DPM within three to five working days. If you don’t have a current NZ Post Account, this may take slightly longer.
