What is USPS?

The United States Postal Service (USPS) is the federal postal carrier responsible for mail delivery, package shipping, and PO Box services in the U.S. Many online USPS payments come from the Click-N-Ship platform, which allows individuals and businesses to purchase and print postage from home. Learn more on their site.

Common causes for USPS charges

• Online postage or label purchases Charges often come from using Click-N-Ship to buy postage for Priority Mail, Express Mail, or other shipping labels printed at home.
• In-person retail transactions Purchases made at local post offices may include postage, supplies, certified mail, or shipping insurance. These appear with the store number or city name.
• PO Box renewals Annual or semiannual PO Box rental payments post automatically when auto-renewal is enabled through USPS.com or your local branch.
• Mailing supplies and packaging Buying flat-rate boxes, envelopes, stamps, or tape directly from the Postal Store or at retail counters.
• Shipping label corrections or adjustments If the actual postage cost differs after package verification, USPS may issue an adjustment charge (or credit) through USPS.COM LABEL ADJ or USPS.COM POSTAGE ADJUSTMENT.
• Business or volume shipping accounts Small-business users with USPS corporate accounts or eVS (Electronic Verification System) balances may see grouped billing through USPS PAYMENT CENTER or USPS.COM*POSTAGE.
• Third-party postage integrations Some shipping platforms (like eBay, PayPal, or Stamps.com) purchase USPS postage on your behalf. In those cases, the descriptor may still show USPS.COM, even if you bought the label through another service.
• Refunds or cancellations Refunded postage or canceled label transactions appear as credits with the same USPS.COM descriptor.
• Recurring services Automatic renewals for PO Boxes or online mailing tools trigger regular USPS.COM POBOX or USPS.COM CLICKNSHIP entries.
