Pricing
You pay the USPS postage quoted for the letter plus the TrackALetter service fee for your selected payment path.
USPS postage + TrackALetter service fee = total shown before purchase.
No subscription is required. Compare payment paths and service fees.
Tracking updates appear when USPS processing data becomes available.
Letter and flat updates come from USPS mail-processing events and aren't guaranteed. An acceptance event may not appear, and updates can be delayed or incomplete. A delivery indication is not necessarily a physical mailbox scan.
Before you print
- Measure and weigh the finished envelope.
- Review address corrections before purchase.
- Print at actual size without scaling.
- Keep the tracking and postage area clear.
