FAQ's

What is a franking machine?

A franking machine, which you may have seen referred to as a postage machine, postage meter or franking meter, is a piece of equipment which is used as an alternative to stamps. A franking machine will produce something called a franking impression onto your mail items which essentially applies postage to whatever items you are sending, therefore replacing the stamp you currently use. This is prove that postage has been paid for and the Royal Mail's system knows this by the franking impression your franking machine produces.

What is a franking machine used for?

How do I know which franking machine is right for me?
