Quality. This Pitney Bowes ink cartridge is engineered to meet, and often exceed, specified postage meter ink standards established by the US Postal Service (the same standards Pitney Bowes must adhere to), including fluorescence and readability, and manufactured in an ISO-9001 certified factory, delivering the highest quality standards in the industry.

Value. Only the OEM and our Pitney Bowes ink supplies have been tested and approved by the US Postal Service, but unlike Pitney Bowes ink supplies, our products carry more ink to ensure maximum yield.

Simple. There are absolutely NO changeover issues when replacing your Pitney Bowes-brand ink cartridge with ours and will NOT void your meter warranty. Just replace your current cartridge with ours, and you’re ready to go.

Fast. We process your order the same day it comes in—day or night—and ship same day on all orders before 4PM Eastern. We ship from 5 Quick Ship™ distribution centers across the US, guaranteeing the fastest standard delivery, with virtually all orders delivering within 1-4 business days. Take advantage of this premium service for FREE on orders of $50 or more.

Prepared. Our inventory is extensively measured everyday to ensure your Pitney Bowes supplies are on hand and ready to ship when you need it. We continue to carry our 100% order fulfillment (no backorders), which is more than Pitney Bowes can say, and a commonly cited reason by many of our customers for making the switch.

We also offer a Low-Price Guarantee, so you can be confident in your purchase and move on to the more important things in your day.

• Pros: Clean Replacement, Dries Quickly, Long Cartridge Life
• Cons: None of the Above
• Describe Yourself: Heavy Duty User
• Comments: I had my doubts, so I placed a “safety” order of 1 just to test out. I’m glad I took a chance. I’m now saving $43/cartridge over “genuine” Pitney Bowes ink. Doesn’t sound like much, but at the end of the year, I’ve saved over $1k. For a small operation like mine with a lot of outgoing mail, that’s a big deal. No issues with the cartridge. Highly recommended!
• Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Will the use of a third party consumable, or "Brand X" as Pitney Bowes refers to it, void my Service Agreement?

Let us reassure you, this is not true. This is a simple, but effective, scare tactic Pitney Bowes employs on customers to coerce them into buying Pitney Bowes original equipment manufacturer (OEM) products that cost more than double our prices. Why? Because they can.

What Pitney Bowes fails to mention is that only the service required as a direct result from use of third-party consumables are not covered by your Service Agreement, so your Service Agreement would NOT be voided in its entirety. Our Risk Free Guarantee ensures you are not liable for anything, so in the highly unlikely event you do experience an issue with one of our products, just know that Pitney Bowes will perform any service necessary to keep you productive. Simply send us the resulting invoice (because the use of our product is not covered under your Service Agreement), and we will cover those expenses.

So, if this is an issue of concern for you, please try our product—risk free—and if you're not satisfied, we will be happy to refund your purchase. We're not looking to make a quick buck. We want you to have a safe, reliable, and quality source for your Pitney Bowes supply needs without the Pitney Bowes prices. If Pitney Bowes insists to the contrary of what we're sharing with you here, ask them to put their claim in writing and you'll know we are looking out for your best interest.

Why does your ink print lighter than Pitney Bowes’?

Our ink is slightly lighter than what you may be accustomed to from Pitney Bowes' ink. That's because Pitney Bowes has a patent on their use of that color red, so only they may use it. Our ink is, therefore, noticeably different to prevent any bully tactics from Pitney Bowes' legal team. This bears no impact whatsoever in mailstream distribution, which is based on fluorescence, not color. USPS scanners read our USPS-approved printed indicia the same as Pitney Bowes'.

Don't let this be an issue of concern for you. You'll see that your mail will not be returned to you as undeliverable.

I’m trying to find a cheaper alternative to Pitney Bowes, but I’ve had some bad experiences so far. How can I be SURE you’re any different?

We’re the first to admit we’re not the cheapest alternative to Pitney Bowes. However, we do offer a quality product backed with extensive guarantees that none of our competitors come close in offering to ensure YOUR protection and a hassle-free experience.

If you believe the product we sent you is defective, please allow us to send you a replacement before asking for a refund. There's a reason for this - our defect rate is less than 1% – one of the lowest in the industry.

In the unlikely (but possible) event that you are the unlucky recipient of a defective product, we apologize (in advance) and understand how frustrating it can be. However, instead of writing us off entirely, we'd like to send you a replacement and return label for the defective product so our engineers can investigate the cause for defect and refine our manufacturing process, further reducing our defect rate to give you a better experience.

For undergoing this hassle and being our involuntary guinea pig in the name of product improvement, we'll take care of you some way on your next order as a way of appreciating your loyalty. Simply reference the RMA number we issue you in the comments section of your order.

Our business model is to help you save money, not make enemies.
