First-Class Mail Incentive Program

Yesterday on Postal Explorer we posted an advance copy of our Federal Register notice with mailing standards for the First-Class Mail Incentive Program. Qualifying customers can receive a 20 percent credit on presorted and automation First-Class Mail cards, letters, and/or flats volume exceeding their established threshold. The incentive program starts October 1, 2009 and runs through December 31, 2009.

This program is subject to a 45-day regulatory review beginning August 11, 2009.
