Frequently Asked Questions on Franking Machines
A franking machine enables the printing of postage directly onto outgoing mail, providing access to Royal Mail's preferential rates, including Franking Rates, Mailmark, and Business Mail Advanced, which are more cost-effective than traditional stamps. Additionally, the machine offers the capability to print company logos and marketing messages on your mail, enhancing its professional appearance.
Franked mail features a 'Mailmark' in place of a traditional stamp. By using a franking machine, you can print this Mailmark directly onto an envelope or label, eliminating the need to manually apply stamps to outgoing mail. Franked postage can be applied to letters, packets, and parcels. In addition to saving time, franking also provides access to discounted Royal Mail rates, including Franking Rates, Mailmark, and Business Mail Advanced (BMA).
Franked postage rates are cheaper than the stamp prices. You can save with a FP Franking Machine as follows-
*Mailmark Extra: Exclusive to FP Mailing customers' only
1. Make sure that your machine has the most up to date Royal Mail rates available
2. Place the letter, packet or parcel onto the scale on your franking machine.
3. Select the Royal Mail service that you require; first class, second class, recorded, signed for etc.
4. Ensure that you have selected the slogan/logo that you require. This can be anything from your company logo to a festive message.
5. Place the item into the feeder of the machine to print the frank mark onto it.
Larger machines in the range have an automatic feeder which will allow you to print multiple items without manually processing them. Machines in the Elite range can have a dynamic scale, which means the machine will automatically weigh each letter, determine the price and print the frank mark onto it.
Once you have franked your mail, you can take it to your local Post Office, post it in a Pox Box (in a meter posting envelope) or if you send high volumes of mail, you can request Royal Mail to pick up your mail daily.
A franking machine comes with a Royal Mail licence. When you want to pay for postage on your outgoing mail, you can use your franking machine to print a postage payment (frank mark) along with company logo & message onto your letter, packet or parcel instead of using stamps. Your franking machine will weigh the item and print the correct postage amount based on the Royal Mail rates, depending on the Royal Mail service (i.e. 1st class, 2nd class, signed for etc.) that you require. Franked postage rates are cheaper than stamps.
You can put your franked mail into a standard Royal Mail post box if it is collated inside a ‘postage meter envelope’ or inside a normal envelope with your machine details on. There are also multiple franked mailboxes around the country to drop your franked mail into freely. If you are unsure, you can take your franked mail into your local Post Office.
A franking machine that is compatible with the Royal Mail Mailmark rates is a Mailmark franking machine. A Mailmark frank mark includes a barcode that Royal Mail systems can read, allowing them to process your mail in a more cost-efficient way. These cost savings are passed onto you, which means you save even more money on your outgoing post than you would if you franked your mail in the standard way.
Mailmark™ gives you even more discounts on each letter that you send.
Royal Mail have announced that after the 1st January 2023, all machines must use Mailmark technology. FP Mailing believe in using the latest technology and therefore all FP PostBase Franking Machines are already Mailmark machines. Although there may be older machines in the market it is important to consider the importance of Mailmark when considering a new franking machine. Royal Mail have invested over £60 million into Mailmark, and future plans include the incorporation of Mailmark technology into future products and services. Do not get left behind!
