Overview
Stamps.com is a US online postage service and a brand of ShipStation Global, whose June 2026 merger announcement lists it among the group’s brands; the site’s footer carries an Auctane copyright[3][19]. It is aimed less at multichannel e-commerce and more at offices and small businesses that print stamps and labels for letters and parcels.
All plans include address verification, contact management and free carrier pickups with UPS, USPS and FedEx. The Professional plan adds Certified Mail and Registered Mail, multi-address batch printing, tracking emails, reports, international shipping and QuickBooks Online integration. The Multi-Location plan adds user roles, location permissions, cross-location reporting and a dedicated account team[19]. DHL Express and GlobalPost are also offered[19].
Plans cost US$14.99, US$29.99 and US$49.99 a month, with a 30-day risk-free trial[19]. The service advertises discounts of up to 90% off UPS, USPS and FedEx rates, but discounted rates apply only to shipments from the continental United States and exclude Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico. The Basic plan is restrictive, allowing one user and 25 stamps and 10 labels[19]. For high-volume store shipping, ShipStation, from the same owner, is the better-documented fit.
