PPSUG - Key documents

Overview of the Postal Payment Services Agreement and Postal Payment Services User Group roles, activities and organization (including new membership fees as decided during PPSUG extraordinary General Assembly 2024)
 

The multilateral agreement for electronic postal payment services governs the exchange of electronic postal payment services between its signatory parties (eliminating the need to negotiate bilateral agreements) and enables the execution of electronic postal payment orders in accordance with the Postal Payment Services Agreement and its Regulations.

Designated operators may contact PPSUG@upu.int to request a Word version of the annex to the agreement if they wish to fill out the form electronically.

The Postal Operations Council, the UPU International Bureau and the Postal Payment Services User Group have developed quality of service standards setting out the minimum service requirements and measurements for electronic postal payment orders, which are applicable to the entire WEPPN.

The Postal Payment Services Operational Guide (PPS Operational Guide) serves as a tool to support designated operators in creating and initializing PPS, and as a reference document to help them improve/professionalize their PPS operations.

Within the framework of its activities, the Postal Payment Services Users Group (PPSUG) functions under the auspices of, and reports to, the Postal Operations Council ensuring the governance, development and promotion of electronic postal payment services (PPS) under the PosTransfer brand, and of the UPU worldwide electronic postal payment services network as defined in these Rules of Procedure.
