From Innovative to Iconic: The Evolution of NetStamps®

In 1996, Stamps.com revolutionized the mailing industry by introducing NetStamps®: The first USPS®-approved adhesive labels that allowed users to print exact postage amounts for First-Class Mail® directly from their computers . This innovation eliminated the need for traditional postage meters, offering businesses and individuals a digital, more flexible and efficient mailing solution.

Over the years, NetStamps became synonymous with convenience and reliability. Their distinctive design—a blank label featuring a red border and the Stamps.com logo—remained unchanged for nearly three decades, symbolizing trust and consistency for countless users.​

Embracing Change: The New NetStamps Design

After 30 years of the classic design, Stamps.com has unveiled a refreshed look for NetStamps. This redesign aligns with our modern brand identity, emphasizing simplicity and user-friendliness. Key enhancements include:​

  • Modern aesthetic: A slimmer and sleeker design that features the new Stamps.com logo and graphics—a reflection of our commitment to innovation and to the hundreds of thousands of business professionals we serve.
  • Enhanced print fidelity: The new NetStamps use heavier paper with stickier adhesive and higher resolution printing to ensure clearer postage information and facilitate smoother USPS scanning and processing.
