Reply-Paid Mailers: How to Send Documents Securely by Post
Reply-paid secure mailers, also known as one-piece mailers or folded self-mailers, let recipients reply to businesses without paying any postage. First, the sender will either dispatch prepaid business reply mailers through their direct mail in a standard envelope or they will hand them out in person at shows and events / through leaflet dispensers in various public places.
Next, the recipient will respond by filling in the relevant information, sealing it with secure horseshoe gumming, and posting it free of charge. The organisation can then use the perforated edging to reveal the sensitive data without risking damage to it. It’s up to the organisation to pay the postage cost to Royal Mail or other delivery service while receiving these responses.
The primary aim of folded self-mailers is to encourage recipients to respond. By offering a free and easy way for people to reply, organisations can greatly increase the likelihood of getting responses and boost their marketing efforts. A bonus of this strategy is that businesses only need to pay for the responses received during / after the campaign – not all the distributed envelopes.
What Are Folded Self Mailers Used For?
Reply-paid secure mailers are designed with horseshoe gumming and perforations around the edge so they can be sealed securely and opened without destroying the data. They're an especially effective solution for members of the public who are reluctant to fill out online forms.
As an affordable and secure way to gather sensitive information from recipients, our fully customisable folded self-mailers offer numerous benefits, including:
- A quick takeaway solution for people who don’t have time to fill out forms there and then
- Sensitive data relating to finances, invoicing, receipts, insurance, medical care, religious beliefs, personal correspondence, or any other information is fully protected from tampering
- A panel with address details and a PPI mark offers ease of posting
Our Folded Self-Mailer Printing Options
Secprint’s folded self-mailers are typically printed in full colour to both sides of an A5 4-page leaflet on 150gsm Silk stock. The piece is finished with a horseshoe gum that allows the mailer to be securely sealed when moist.
Your reply-paid secure mailer will feature a panel with address details and a PPI mark, providing ease of posting for your recipient. The perforated edging ensures a tamperproof solution that also allows easy opening without damaging the contents. As standard, your order will not include regular envelopes.

What does "reply paid" mean on an envelope?
"Reply paid" on an envelope means that the sender has paid or will pay the cost of the recipient's return postage. These are known as reply paid mailers, folded self-mailers, or one-piece mail. Businesses that offer their audience free postage are more likely to receive a response due to the ease of sending a reply.
What should a reply paid mailer be used for?
Reply paid mailers, or folded self-mailers, offer a tamperproof solution for communicating sensitive data through the postal system. This is especially important for information relating to personal identification, finances, medical care, religious beliefs, insurance, receipts, invoicing, and any other personal correspondence. Knowing their information will be secure when travelling to the sender, recipients will be more willing to send a response.
What size is a reply paid mailer?
The common size for a folded self-mailer is A5, or A4 folded once. This offers 4 flyer pages for relevant artwork and information. Download our handy template or speak to us for guidance.
What is horseshoe gumming?
Horseshoe gumming is a feature of our reply paid secure mailers. The gum, also found on standard envelopes, surrounds the edge of the mailer and is activated by moistening / licking. This process causes the gum to become sticky so it can be attached to another part of the product, ensuring the secure sealing of the information inside.
