Get a Virtual Business Address

A virtual business address is a real street address at a mail center or in a prestigious office building location where you elect to receive your business mail and packages. It is not a PO box. Unfortunately, a post office box cannot be used to register your new business, nor can it be used to receive all your packages.

An iPostal1 virtual business address is a real street address and can serve as your company mailing address and as a business mailbox to receive all your packages. At your iPostal1 virtual business address, all your postal mail and packages are securely received by professional staff. Our digital mailbox technology lets you use an app or go online to view and manage your mail from anywhere. With just a click, you forward, open and scan mail, discard unwanted mail, or schedule a pickup if you live close by.

You can add local or toll-free phone and fax to give your virtual business address a strong market presence and with over 3,000 virtual business address locations available, you can easily add additional addresses from within your account to expand the footprint of your business. Only iPostal1 offers virtual addresses with both digital mailbox capability and the option to add local or toll-free phone forwarding, voice messaging, and fax.

We think you’ll agree that using your home address for your business could hurt your company image and slow your growth. Imagine instead having a virtual address, whether close to where you live, in another city or state, or even in another country, all the while continuing to work from home.

But isn’t that expensive? Not when you get a virtual business address with iPostal1 that starts at just $14.99 per month.

Learn more below about why having a virtual business address is so important and how iPostal1 makes it easy it is to set one up.

People who run a home-based business or who want to expand their business presence into new markets need virtual business addresses.

Running a business from home is a great way to save money, save time and get a new business off the ground. However, using your home address for your business doesn’t look as professional or offer the same privacy as having a separate virtual business address for your company. It is difficult to protect your privacy and your family when your home address is your business mailing address. Additionally, if you want to formally register your business or apply for a loan, your home address won’t work.

As a business grows, needs and objectives change. Many companies already have a business address and maybe their own office space, but they can’t afford to open offices in other cities, states or countries to expand their market presence. But with iPostal1, they can afford to add multiple virtual business addresses and make it easy for customers to find and contact them in many new markets.

With iPostal1, you add another virtual business address with just a click. iPostal1 offers the largest network of virtual business addresses worldwide with over 3,000 locations across the U.S. and internationally, each equipped with digital mailbox capability that lets you view and manage your mail and packages from anywhere with our iPhone and Android apps or online.

Every iPostal1 address is a real street address, unlike a USPS PO box, so you can use it to register your company and receive packages from UPS and FedEx. All mail is received and handled by professional staff at your virtual business mail address, not forwarded on to a central processing facility like some other companies do, which causes delays and requires your mail to be handled multiple times.

Mail forwarding to your home or far away is easy and transparent. You see real time shipping prices for multiple carriers and levels of service, so you can choose the option that best meets your needs and budget.

After you sign up for a virtual address for business, you can use your new business address as your company address to register your business, list it on your website or business cards, and use it to securely receive your business mail and packages. Our mail center locations are real street addresses at either professional retail pack and ship stores or impressive office buildings, primarily with executive business centers.

All mail and packages are received, stored and handled at your virtual business address location, not forwarded to a central processing facility. Digital mailbox plans for businesses start at only $14.99 at most locations including up to 30 pieces of received mail each month at no additional charge.

You will see on the app or in your online mailbox a clear image of the outside of every piece of mail or package received, including the sender information, so you can easily identify every item. Then, with just a click or two, you can forward mail and packages to any address. You will see real-time shipping prices for different carriers and levels of service, so you know exactly what each shipment will cost and when it will arrive.

Because you get digital mailbox service with your iPostal1 virtual business address, you can view your mail from anywhere by downloading the free iPostal1 app or logging into your personal digital mailbox online. You receive a push notification to your phone and an email each time new postal mail arrives.

If you want to view what’s inside a letter without having to wait for it to be forwarded, request a scan of that item, and it will appear as a PDF in your digital mailbox, where you can read, download or save it. If you want to discard unwanted mail, you have the option to request to discard it at no charge, or to shred it. If you live near your mailing address, you can schedule a pickup. You can even deposit a check by mail.

The fees for scanning, shredding or picking up mail are posted under the Pricing menu tab. We charge your credit card or PayPal account each month for your mailbox fee and whenever a specific requested mail task is completed. You receive an email notification whenever a charge is made.
