DST Output, a provider of print and electronic output solutions, and Zumbox, a digital postal mail services provider, have agreed to provide digital postal mail capabilities for DST Output clients.
DST Output produces and delivers nearly 3bn electronic and print mail pieces to more than 120m street addresses on behalf of its clients every year.
Digital postal mail is generated as an exact digital facsimile of – and alternative to – paper mail. The DST Output-Zumbox agreement will enable DST Output to offer its clients the ability to deliver digital postal mail directly to a consumer’s Zumbox. In turn, consumers will have the opportunity to view, manage and store their transactional and financial mail and other documents within a secure and verified online mailbox – their Zumbox – via the Internet.
“This agreement with Zumbox will result in another important electronic delivery channel for our clients and can provide significant cost savings, especially with the anticipated postage rate increase in 2011,” said DST Output’s executive vice president of technology and CTO Frank Delfer. “Most importantly for consumers is having a single logon to view documents that have been processed by DST Output, click through to billing Web sites where they can make payments, and archive their bills, statements and other documents securely.”
“The tight integration between sophisticated data management systems at DST Output and the Zumbox paperless postal system will deliver a great experience for mail recipients in consumer households,” said John Payne, CEO of Zumbox. “The simple convenience of digital postal mail will save those consumers time and eliminate the need for bankers boxes full of paper files.”
