Commission Action IV. Ordering Paragraphs I. Introduction The Postal Service is currently selling American Express gift cards at about 5,000 post offices throughout the United States pursuant to a market test extension authorized by the Commission that is scheduled to expire on June 27, 2014.1 On June 9, 2014, the Postal Service filed a request pursuant to 39 U.S.C. 3642 and 39 CFR 3020.30 et seq., to add Gift Cards to the competitive product list as a price category to the Greeting Cards and Stationery product.2 It proposes that the product name be changed to Greeting Cards, Gift Cards, and Stationery in the competitive product list. Request at 1. II. Postal Service Filing Request for an interim order. Recognizing that the Commission may not be able to complete its review of the Request by the expiration of the market test, the Postal Service requests that the Commission issue an interim order before June 27, 2014, allowing the Postal Service to continue selling the open loop cards currently available at post offices until a final order is issued in this proceedings. Id. at 1–2. Absent such an order, the Postal Service states that requiring it ‘‘to pull these gift cards from Post Offices pending a final order in this proceeding’’ would be inefficient and harmful to customers. Id. at 2.3 The Postal Service Request. The Request includes a copy of the Governors’ Decision and Certification (Attachment A), a Statement of Supporting Justification to demonstrate the Request meets the criteria in 39 U.S.C. 3642 (Attachment B) and proposed Mail Classification Schedule (MCS) language (Attachment C). The Postal Service also filed on June 9, 2014 a notice of filing a non-public library reference with estimated cost coverage calculations in an Excel workbook with revenue and cost information together 1 Docket No. MT2011–2, Order Granting Extension of Gift Card Market Test, July 19, 2013 (Order No. 1781). The market test was initially authorized by Order No. 721, Order Authorizing Gift Card Market Test, April 28, 2011. Market tests are limited to 24 month’s duration with a possible extension not to exceed an additional 12 months. 39 U.S.C. 3641(d). 2 Request of the United States Postal Service to Add Gift Cards as a New Price Category in the Greeting Cards and Stationery Product, June 9, 2014 (Request). 3 The Postal Service asserts that during such an interim order, it would not change the limited set of gift cards sold or the locations where the cards are sold. Id. at 2 n.3. PO 00000 Frm 00099 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 35819 with an Application for Non-Public Treatment for the protection of the information as Attachment A to the Notice.4 The Statement of Supporting Justification (Request, Attachment B) filed through Betty Y. Su, Executive Director of Brand Marketing, states that the Gift Cards service (as part of the Greeting Cards and Stationery product) will cover its attributable costs and make a positive contribution to institutional costs, citing to the nonpublic library reference, Estimated Cost Coverage Calculations. Id. at 1–2. She says the market for gift cards is highly competitive and fees must be kept low to compete with other retailers. Id. at 2– 3. Gift cards are widely available from private firms and surveys of customers using the product found them convenient and would be bought again, although some customers were concerned about longer lines at the post office. Id. at 4–5. She further states the likely impact on small business is minimal because small businesses tend to use the gift cards and generally larger retail chains compete in the sale of gift cards. Id. at 5. Also, the impact on the market would be considerably smaller than three percent of the relevant market. Id. Finally, she sees a nexus between the use of gift cards and the use of the mails for sending gift cards because a majority of gift cards purchased at post offices will be mailed. Id. at 6–7. The Commission’s order authorizing the market test included the condition that the Postal Service report the type of gift cards sold (open or closed loop), within 30 days of the end of the fourth quarter of FY 2011 and semi-annually thereafter: The total and net revenues; volumes, including, separately, volumes sold with greeting cards; attributable costs; and an estimate of the percentage of gift cards mailed (or likely to be mailed). Order No. 721 at 15.5 The Postal Service complied and filed its periodic reports in support of its claim that a large portion of gift cards are mailed, that their sale can reasonably be classified as an ancillary service, and thus qualifies as a postal service. The Statement of Supporting Justification relies on the various survey data collected during the market test by the Postal Service both at the Commission’s direction and on its own volition. The Postal Service found that 52 percent of the purchased gift cards 4 Notice of Filing of Nonpublic Library Reference USPS–LR–MC2014–26/NP1, June 9, 2014. 5 A second condition limited the market test to the sale of gift cards at the Postal Service’s retail facilities, including its Web site.
