Stamps.com Waives Monthly Fee For Senior Citizens Due To Pandemic

El Segundo-based Stamps.com, which allows people to print their own postage at home--but mostly focuses on businesses--says it is waiving its normal monthly fee for U.S. senior citizens, age 65 or over. The online postage service provider normally charges $17.99 a month to use its tools. According to Stamps.com, it hopes the waived fee will allow senior citizens to ship letters and packages without leaving their own homes. Stamps said its Stamps.com Helps Seniors program will be available until at least July 31st, 2020; the company pledged that once the program ends, no monthly service fees will be charged unless a customer takes further action to register for an account with a monthly service fee.
