What Is Franked Mail?
Franked Mail offers businesses an alternative way to send mail via the Royal Mail. It works by a franking machine producing a franking impression, which is then applied to your mail item. For example the franking machine will frank the image above onto your mail, and this will then be seen as franked mail. Franked Mail works just like stamped mail, but at a much lower cost, and you can frank in both red and blue ink. Once mail is franked, it can be sent to the Royal Mail for delivery.
