PIN Security: A Key Franking Machine Feature

PIN security is a standard feature on almost all modern franking machines that restricts access to authorised users only. By requiring a password to operate the machine, it prevents unauthorised use, helps control postage spend and keeps your franking secure. It is a simple feature that protects both your machine and your business.

With older franking machines, anyone could access and use the machine for purposes outside the interest of the business. PIN security removes that risk: users must enter their password to gain access, so only authorised staff can frank mail.

Maximum security

PIN code security brings maximum protection to your franking machine. Because most modern machines include it as standard, the machine can only be accessed by authorised users. Anyone who does not know the PIN code will not be able to use the machine, improving overall security.

PIN security also lets you set a limit on the maximum number of items that can be franked. If a user goes over this amount, the franking system automatically locks and will not process the frank. This helps prevent staff from misusing the machine.

What can PIN security do for you?

As with most franking machines, departmental accounts come as standard. Using PIN security, you can choose exactly who can access the machine and its features, which benefits any business. It helps ensure you are in full control of who uses your machine.

All Mailcoms franking machines come with PIN security as a standard feature, helping you keep your machine safe and secure. View our range of franking machines here and request a low cost franking machine quote from us.
