How iPostal1 partners can create two revenue streams with one system by bundling iWorkSpaceMail
If you're already an iPostal1 partner, you're one step away from unlocking a second recurring revenue stream by bundling iWorkSpaceMail into your membership packages.
iWorkSpaceMail lets you offer digital mail as part of your existing service bundles alongside meeting rooms, phone answering, and virtual office services, with you controlling pricing and keeping the revenue.
Yet many operators still hesitate to do so. Some assume it adds complexity, increases workload, or creates pricing headaches.
In reality, though, none of that is true.
Here's what you need to know about bundling iWorkSpaceMail into your membership offerings.
iPostal1 vs. iWorkSpaceMail: What’s different and what’s the same?
Both iPostal1 and iWorkSpaceMail use the same platform and require the same daily tasks from your team, but they serve two distinct customer bases and generate two distinct revenue streams.
If you want a deeper side-by-side breakdown, we’ve created a full guide comparing the two platforms.
Why adding iWorkSpaceMail is even easier than you might expect
When we speak with our iPostal1 partners, we typically hear three main hesitations for adding iWorkSpaceMail into their service mix:
Workload
Setting pricing
Marketing the product to their members
Here’s what we see most often, and how each concern disappears once you understand how the system actually works.
1. The workload and space requirements don't change
Before addressing pricing and marketing, it's worth discussing what doesn't change when you bundle iWorkSpaceMail with iPostal1.
As an iPostal1 partner, you already process mail daily. Adding iWorkSpaceMail to that daily routine requires no additional systems, technology, or storage.
For iPostal1 partners, the workload is small:
50% of customers don't receive any mail in a given month
Across all customers, the average is just 2 pieces of mail per month, and customers request fewer than 1 task per month on average
Managing 100 customers takes about 30 minutes per day
Digital mail isn't a labor-intensive operation, and can be handled in less time than a typical lunch break
For most operators, your mail storage needs will be a single filing cabinet and a single shelf for packages
93% of digital mail revenue is passive, requiring no effort or labor
This will likely hold true for your workspace members as well.
You're already doing these tasks for your iPostal1 customers. So, adding iWorkSpaceMail members to the same daily routine doesn't expand your operational footprint.
2. Three ways to structure iWorkSpaceMail in your membership packages
Setting your own pricing can feel overwhelming when you have full control, and that's understandable.
After all, with iPostal1, pricing is handled for you, but with iWorkSpaceMail, you decide what to charge, how to structure plans, and how to bundle digital mail with your other services. From our side, we charge only a flat monthly fee.
That flexibility is valuable, but it can also create decision fatigue when you're staring at a blank slate.
We've seen what works at successful locations and, based on those insights, here are three proven structures that simplify the decision.
Option 1: Bundle digital mail into existing membership packages
This approach treats digital mail as a built-in membership amenity instead of an optional add-on. Bundle iWorkSpaceMail with meeting room hours, phone answering, virtual office services, and other products you already offer. You can also include digital mailbox pricing as part of your office or virtual package pricing.
Many members need more than just a desk or office. They need meeting rooms, mail handling, and administrative support. By packaging these services into well-structured plans, you increase member spending, improve retention, and create operational efficiencies.
You can include unlimited task processing, or set usage limits with overage charges. For example, offer 10 free scans per month, then charge per scan thereafter. Mail forwarding remains fee-based based on carrier costs.
Here's a sample rollout strategy:
For existing members, introduce the service and allow opt-out after a 60–90 day trial. We’ve found that members recognize the benefits and the low incremental costs, and usually elect to keep the service. For new members, position digital mail as a standard feature that differentiates your workspace.
This consultative approach helps members find the right fit, whether that's a business address, digital mailbox, phone answering, or occasional workspace access without making them overpay for unnecessary extras.
Option 2: Offer as a standalone add-on service
This approach keeps digital mail separate from your core membership packages.
Set a fixed monthly fee to add digital mailbox service to any existing membership plan. Include unlimited task processing, with exceptions outlined for specific services like mail forwarding or large content scans.
Here's an example of this pricing model: $20 per month to add to any existing membership plan. All tasks are included, except for mail forwarding, which is based on current carrier pricing.
This model works well if you want to maintain distinct service tiers or if your membership base includes people who genuinely don't need digital mail services.
Option 3: Menu-based pricing model
This structure mirrors iPostal1's pricing model and gives members full transparency. You charge a monthly subscription plus individual task fees.
Monthly subscription options could include:
$39.99/month or $399.00/year for a personal account
$44.99/month or $449.00/year for a business account
Common task examples include:
Page scans and shredding
Package consolidation
Shipping based on real-time carrier rates
Check deposits and invoice scans
It’s important to note that you can price the service however you find appropriate for the market.
This model offers maximum transparency but adds administrative complexity, so it works best for operators already running menu-based pricing systems.
3. iPostal1 provides you with assets and resources to message and market iWorkSpaceMail
Marketing iWorkSpaceMail can feel intimidating for many operators because, unlike iPostal1, you're responsible for explaining the service to members. iPostal1 removes that burden by providing ready-to-use messaging.
These materials walk through what digital mail services are, how they work, and why members benefit from them.
We also provide fully white-labeled marketing materials so you can simply drop in your own information and hand them out. There's no need to create messaging from scratch or figure out how to position the service.
For existing members, use the materials to introduce iWorkSpaceMail (or your whitelabeled version of the platform) as a new amenity. For new members, include the materials in your onboarding packet to show digital mail as part of your full-service offering.
The thinking is done, and the messaging is ready. You just need to customize it with your details.
How OfficeRnD and DeskWorks integration removes billing complexity
If billing complexity is a concern, integration eliminates it.
iWorkSpaceMail offers integration through our partners, OfficeRnD and DeskWorks, removing the manual effort from billing and invoicing.
With the integration in place, mailbox fees and additional services are automatically captured. Monthly digital mailbox plans and tasks flow directly to the member's monthly invoice produced by their operating platform.
There's no need to manually enter charges or manage invoices yourself:
Members are synced to iWorkSpaceMail automatically
Mailboxes are created when members sign up
When members leave, mailboxes are disabled if they no longer have a plan that includes continued mailbox services
Through iWorkSpaceMail's partnership with Syncaroo, seamless synchronization with your management system is included at no additional cost.
Standard iWorkSpaceMail fees apply, but a paid Syncaroo account is not required.
If you're using OfficeRnD or DeskWorks, billing complexity isn't a reason to avoid iWorkSpaceMail.
How to start bundling iWorkSpaceMail in 3 simple steps
Bundling iWorkSpaceMail into your existing membership packages doesn't require extensive setup or new systems.
Here's how to do it:
Choose your pricing structure from the three options outlined above. If you're using OfficeRnD or DeskWorks, set up the integration so billing happens automatically.
Use the provided marketing materials to communicate the service to your members. Customize the white-labeled materials with your pricing and details, then distribute them to existing members or include them in new member onboarding.
Process mail using the same platform and workflow you already use for iPostal1 customers. The technology is identical, the admin portal looks the same, and the daily mail processing routine doesn't change.
If you want to see bundling in action, read our case study on why and how Vast coworking bundles services to boost revenue, retention, and efficiency.
Your team already knows the platform, so the workflow doesn't change, and the operational footprint stays the same.
Bundling iWorkSpaceMail simply means capturing recurring revenue from members you're already serving.
If you're an iPostal1 partner, you already have everything you need to start bundling.
And, when you do, digital mail becomes a sticky service. Members rely on it and stay longer. When paired with offices, coworking, meeting room access, and virtual office services, it creates compelling membership offerings that boost retention and increase revenue.
