EBay signs e-stamp deal with Royal Mail

EBay and Royal Mail have teamed up to allow online sellers to pay for and print postage stamps direct from the auction site.

The partnership aims to allow sellers to accurately price, book for collection and arrange postage without the need to leave the eBay website.

The electronic stamps are compatible with the Royal Mail and Parcelforce delivery networks.

Portal Technology Systems, which has worked with Royal Mail over the past five years, was commissioned to design and build the online postage systems and to construct the software infrastructure to support the eBay service.
