Managing shipping across multiple carriers can be a hassle. From juggling several accounts to keeping track of different rates, logins, and billing systems, businesses often lose time and money just trying to get things out the door.

That’s where Anytime Postage (ATP) steps in. With its all-in-one kiosk system, ATP offers a smarter way to handle shipping, no matter how many carriers you use. Here’s how it works:

Why Shipping with Multiple Carriers is Such a Headache

When businesses use more than one shipping company, such as UPS, FedEx, DHL, or USPS, separate accounts are often needed for each. That means different platforms, logins, pricing models, and billing cycles. It gets messy fast.

Manually comparing shipping rates and services wastes valuable time. And when mistakes happen, like choosing the wrong service or miscalculating the cost, it can hurt your bottom line.

How ATP Brings Everything Into One System

ATP simplifies all of this with one powerful kiosk. Whether you’re shipping packages at a retail location or managing logistics behind the scenes, ATP’s proprietary software connects everything in one place.

You can link your existing carrier accounts directly into the system, or use ATP’s built-in accounts that already have great rates negotiated. Either way, thanks to API technology that pulls real-time data, the kiosk shows you live pricing and service options from all the major carriers.

Using Your Own Carrier Account vs. Anytime Postage

With ATP, you’re in control. If you already have good shipping rates with a certain carrier, you can use your own account through the kiosk. Prefer to keep it simple? Use ATP’s accounts. We’ve already negotiated competitive pricing that often beats standard rates.

We also help make sure you’re choosing the right service for each shipment. Whether it’s overnight delivery, international shipping, or the most affordable ground option, you’ll see your choices clearly without needing to jump between websites.

Billing is Straightforward

If you’re a business using an Anytime Postage kiosk, we’ll send you one monthly invoice that covers all your transactions—no matter how many carriers you used. This makes bookkeeping much easier and eliminates confusion over who charged what and when.

For customer-facing kiosks, individual users simply pay per transaction at the time of purchase. No accounts needed.

Can Anytime Postage Connect to Any Carrier?

Most major carriers are already included, and ATP can work with any shipping carrier that offers API access (a way for software systems to talk to each other). If there’s a service you want that isn’t currently supported online, we’ll even reach out to the carrier to see if there’s a workaround.

The only limit is the technology the carrier itself offers. If they don’t make a service available through APIs or online platforms, we can’t offer it—but we’ll always try to find a solution.

Real-time Pricing Means Fewer Surprises

No more guessing how much a shipment will cost. Anytime Postage kiosks display live pricing pulled directly from each carrier. That means you always see the most accurate rates and delivery times before you commit.

It’s faster, easier, and more transparent, exactly what shipping should be.

One System. All Your Shipping. No Hassle.

With Anytime Postage, you don’t need to waste time switching between carriers or managing multiple accounts. Whether you’re a small business owner, a shipping manager, or a retail customer, ATP gives you the flexibility and control you need—without the confusion.

One kiosk. One system. Every major carrier. Shipping just got a whole lot easier.
