Franking Machines

Weigh packages and print their postage in one.

For businesses posting many items every day, franking machines offer a means to save time and money whilst giving you the opportunity to place your company name and logo on the postage label.

Pitney Bowes have introductory trials of their equipment; Pitney Bowes even include £10 of free postage with their trials.

The convenience of printing your own postage without the expensive machinery.

Royal Mail SmartStamp® offers an alternative to Franking Machines, you can still personalise your postage with your logo, printing postage onto envelopes and labels directly; without the need for an additional printer with its own consumable requirements.

With a subscription to Royal Mail’s SmartStamp® you can print postage from your computer and printer, any time day or night; postage costs are identical to those for stamps–you pay for the subscription and for the postage you use.

You could buy your PC, printer and its consumables at Viking Direct.
