Endicia for Mac Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the Endicia for Mac software without an Endicia account?

Not at this time. To get the most out of Endicia, you'll want to be able to take advantage of its powerful postage printing technology. You'll find, once you start using it, that the time and efficiency savings more than make up for the monthly service fee.

Can I use USPS Insurance for my packages?

At this time you cannot add regular USPS Insurance with Endicia for Mac. We do offer Endicia Parcel Insurance as an alternative to insure your packages with this service plan. Any USPS insurance that is automatically included, such as the first $200 on Priority Mail Express International is still included.

The key to printing international postage in Endicia for Mac is to enter the address and validate it before trying to set any mailing options.
