Bermuda Post link-up with RPost

Bermuda Post Office and RPost announced they have entered into a partnership to offer Registered Email services as an official Bermuda Postal Service to Bermuda’s domestic and international businesses.
The RPost – the leader in managed outbound messaging with its flagship Registered Email services – service will allow Bermuda Post business customers to dramatically reduce their annual communications costs by offering a viable electronic alternative to high-cost courier and overnight delivery services.

Minister of energy, telecommunications and e-commerce, Michael Scott said: “For our business customers who compete on a global scale, we are extending the mailstream to include Registered Email services that bring far greater agility and speed in conducting their business internationally, with the added benefit of irrefutable proof to protect against common misunderstandings related to email delivery, content or time.”

“For our local customers, we look to expose them to the efficiencies afforded by Bermuda’s electronic transaction laws, with simple-to-use, low cost, and market leading electronic services.”

Bermuda Post Office customers can now send international and local business correspondence – including invoices, contracts for signature, required notifications and general information – via email with verifiable proof of message delivery, content and official time stamp.

“As businesses modernise their processes with software tools, they have traditionally left the high value correspondence in paper form due to standard email’s inherent risk of manipulation and claims of non-receipt,” said Zafar Khan, CEO of RPost. “Now, RPost and the Bermuda Post Office together close the final paper holdouts, modernising the full mailstream to save money, time, and providing customers with the ability to better serve their customers, manage corporate activities, and reduce risk in supplier correspondence.”
