Our international postage prices

We are often asked to explain how we can offer such low international postage prices, so here's a quick summary.

We consolidate international mail from many clients, this gives us huge buying power and we use this power to negotiate rates with many international mail postal operators who fight for this work i.e. La Poste, Deutsche Post, Swiss Post, Mail Africa, USPS, Royal Mail International etc. Fundamentally this is international postage brokering, and most of these postal operators only deal with the trade and not end clients.

We also have the largest network of direct entry mail services, we have mailing agents in over 70 countries worldwide, many of which offer extra discounts for certain types of international mail that they may specialise in distributing i.e. lightweight or heavyweight international mail, direct mail, and periodical services.

On top of this we are part of the La Poste Group, Europe's second largest postal operator so we have privileged access to their postal routes.

We are also able to achieve extra discounts that many international mail companies can't achieve because we have sophisticated address formatting and mail sorting capabilities. We are basically able to undertake some of the work that the postal operators would usually need to do themselves, thus reducing their costs, and they pass these cost savings on to us, and in turn our clients benefit.

We are approved by the Mail Consolidators Association (MCA) and by IMDAS, the International Mail Distribution Accreditation Scheme. In fact our CEO was Chairman of the Mail Consolidators Association for 3 years, and we were founding members of IMDAS!
