Promotional Details
The Informed Delivery promotion encourages mailers to adopt Informed Delivery as part of an integrated marketing campaign. In order to qualify for the discount:
- Mailers must register on the Business Customer Gateway (BCG) at gateway.usps.com via the Incentive Program Service (the Informed Delivery Promotion Office recommends participants register several days prior to the first qualifying mailing).
- Participants must agree to certain promotion terms and specify which permits, Mailer IDs (MIDs), and Customer Registration IDs (CRIDs) will be participating.
- All Mail Service Providers (MSP) and mailers must complete a series of brief surveys about their participation in the promotion as part of the terms of participation.
