Coming soon – Postal Service sets My USPS.com launch

A year ago, PMG Pat Donahoe asked attendees at the National Postal Forum to imagine an online application that a person or small business could use to track packages being delivered to or sent from an address. My-USPS.com

This month, the PMG’s prediction begins to take shape with the launch of My USPS.com, planned for Spring of 2014. A collaboration between Online Development, Shipping Products, Shipping Information Systems and Information Technology, the new website provides customers a single, comprehensive dashboard solution they can use to track and manage incoming USPS-shipped packages. Using a simple, online interface, customers can take advantage of the following features:

  • A customized, easy-to-use dashboard linked to the customer’s usps.com profile.
  • An automated view of package tracking information that loads and retains tracking data for packages headed to the user’s registered address.
  • Access within the portal to usps.com features that support package management, such as the Electronic Authorize Shipment Release service, Hold Mail and Create a Label.
  • The ability to create alerts to obtain important package tracking data for inbound deliveries.

“With My USPS.com, customers will have a new tool to add to the increasing list of alternatives at their disposal to track and manage their incoming packages,” said New Products and Innovation VP Gary Reblin. “And in the future, we’ll be adding more features to this important new tool.”

  1. Yes and here we are all these months later, I’m unable to use the My USPS for my small business.

    Even though, I already have an online account for USPS.com, the My USPS wants me to sign up and second time, and then says it needs to verify my identity. This fails every time, because it ask me security questions that Nothing to do with my past or preset life, like it looking at someone else account. So my answers are always “None of the Above”, and it fails me every time. After you fail, you made to wait 72 hours, eventually you are locked out for 90 days. I have more open support tickets with the USPS, they can’t seem to solve the problem. I’ve been to do this now for over 10 months, yes almost year, and the USPS has failed to do anything. Most of this come from the problem that out-sourced the identity check to a third-party company, that whey will not give you the name of, or don’t contact themselves.

    This is just plain, stupid and ridiculous!
