It's not clear to me why or how this will be better than the five existing services listed at https://www.usps.com/business/online-postage.htm

I believe those are consumer focused services, where as EasyPost is designed for developers to integrate shipping and postage into their apps and websites.

Please go use them and it will become clear :)

Is there a website that will sell a single printable stamp online? I send maybe 2 letters a year, and would gladly pay something ridiculous like 500% markup when I can't find a stamp.

You can curl those with EasyPost! https://geteasypost.com/docs

Nice! Have you thought of putting "NO MONTHLY FEE" somewhere on the homepage? I missed that part, and pretty much just assumed it because of the other services.

I'm probably not going to figure out the api to print a stamp though. Is a non-api + non-signup version in the works? That's what I'd really want next time I need a stamp.

Do you guys plan on integrating with any of the existing ecommerce platforms?

jstreebin4• 13 years ago

Yes! We're planning on Shopify and Esty apps. Any other requests?
