RMFS(Remotely Managed Franking System)

What is RMFS?

RMFS is a Remotely Managed Franking System introduced on 16-08-2010 with a new technology that offers a secure, unique, and digital frank and does not rely on mechanical seals used earlier.

In RMFS the franking machine models approved by the Postal Directorate shall only use inkjet printing technology and shall be reset through a remote central server managed and operated by the respective franking machine manufacturer.

RMFS Sailent Features:

Thus each FM manufacturer / Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) would have its own centrally located single RMFS Server located in India catering to the network of its FMs installed throughout the country.

Further, the Franking Machine User shall buy a Digi-frank plus franking machine of any model approved by the Department of Posts from Franking Machine Vendor authorized by it.

Indeed, the funds are secured through a special device known as Postal Security Device (PSD) which is not open to repair that forms an integral part of the FM and is completely

amper-proof and the fund’s register cannot be changed by any means, physically or electronically.

This requires no mechanical sealing.
