Electronic document delivery can be used to replace any paper document that is printed and delivered by mail. This includes statements, bills, letters, invoices, collection notices, policies and other high volume and system generated document output.   CertifiedEmail Document Delivery is designed as an exact replica of the paper that it replaces, but with optional, additional, interactive functionality, such as intuitive navigation, pre-populated application forms, feedback submission, embedded data and opinion polls or surveys.

Email is a cost effective, alternative delivery channel that augments the online channel and complements corporate electronic communication strategies, with the significant benefit of achieving paper reduction. Supported by advanced email deliverability technology, electronic documents are protected by state of the art security mechanisms and integrated with high response functionality.
