UPS Internet Shipping allows you to prepare domestic and international shipment labels from the convenience of any computer with Internet access. You do not have to install shipping software, like UPS OnLine WorldShipSM, to your computer. A UPS account number is not required because UPS Internet Shipping can be billed to a credit card. This service is compatible with Windows® and Macintosh® operating systems, and its state-of-the-art encryption technology ensures privacy.
To send a package or letter, select the Shipping tab and then select Create a Shipment from the area on the left. If you have not registered with My UPS, you will be asked to complete the registration form (name, address, phone and e-mail) and select a User ID and Password. Your address will automatically serve as each shipment´s return address. You can update or cancel the registration information at any time.
After logging on, you can start creating a shipping label for the package. These are professional labels with address validation (city, state and postcode), for addresses in the United States. Complete the service information, and you´re ready to print the shipping label.
Minimum System Requirements:
- IBM or Mac® Compatible computer with Internet Connection
