Rekeying

Managing Your Postage Funds

The United States Postal Service (USPS) also requires, for security reasons, that the meter keys expire after 3-6 years. Meter keys are crytographic codes that your system uses to protect your funds during printing and when connecting to your Postage By Phone account.

When the meter keys expire, the system reports that a rekey operation is required.

To rekey your meter, perform a refill or a zero refill. This upgrades the keys. If you do not perform a refill within three months of the rekey message, the system locks the meter and does not allow you to print postage.

You may still perform a refill or a zero refill to upgrade the keys and resume operation.

Refer to the appropriate section listed here for checking funds and account balances, adding postage, and determining your payment options when using Postage By Phone.
