Does ups mail innovations have usps tracking

UPS Mail Innovations, a subsidiary of UPS, offers a range of mail and parcel services, including domestic and international mail, packages, and freight. While UPS Mail Innovations is a separate entity from the United States Postal Service (USPS), it does use USPS tracking for some of its services.

Here are some scenarios where UPS Mail Innovations may use USPS tracking:

  1. USPS-authorized mail services: UPS Mail Innovations offers mail services that are authorized by USPS, such as First-Class Mail, Priority Mail, and Parcel Post. In these cases, UPS Mail Innovations uses USPS tracking numbers and the USPS tracking system to monitor the delivery of these mailpieces.
  2. Co-palletized shipments: UPS Mail Innovations may co-palletize shipments with USPS, which means that they combine their mailpieces with USPS mailpieces on a single pallet. In these cases, UPS Mail Innovations uses USPS tracking numbers and the USPS tracking system to monitor the delivery of these shipments.
  3. International mail: UPS Mail Innovations may use USPS tracking for international mail shipments that are sent through USPS's international network. In these cases, UPS Mail Innovations uses USPS tracking numbers and the USPS tracking system to monitor the delivery of these international mailpieces.

However, it's important to note that not all UPS Mail Innovations shipments use USPS tracking. For example:

  1. UPS Mail Innovations packages: UPS Mail Innovations offers a range of package services, including UPS SurePost, UPS Mail Innovations Package Services, and UPS Freight Services. These packages are tracked using UPS's own tracking system, and do not use USPS tracking.
  2. Private label services: UPS Mail Innovations offers private label services to its customers, which means that the customer's logo and branding are used on the mailpieces. In these cases, UPS Mail Innovations may use its own tracking system, rather than USPS tracking.

In summary, while UPS Mail Innovations does use USPS tracking for some of its services, not all of its shipments are tracked using USPS tracking. It's always best to check with UPS Mail Innovations or the shipper to determine which tracking system is used for a specific shipment.
