Digital Stamp Envelopes
Transform your mailings into something personal!
Available as part of Royal Mail Mailmark® service, the Digital Stamp incorporates the appearance of a traditional postage stamp, but the main difference is that the stamp design is printed onto the envelope and not affixed. Therefore, when recipients receive mail printed with the realistic Digital Stamp they are more likely to have the opinion it is relevant and targeted encouraging overall opening and response rates, but more importantly for business an improved return on investment.
Mail Solutions are a Royal Mail approved printer of the Digital Stamp, so we have the knowledge and expertise to help you with Indicia design requirements and ensure your envelopes are compliant with Royal Mail guidelines.
