Stamps.com offers at-home postage and mailing for a monthly fee. Customers are able to carry a balance on their accounts that allows them to mail packages and letters as long as there is a balance in their account. Stamps.com has a button on its program that carries this logo, "To purchase postage, click here." Following that click, another window pops up that reads, "You are about to purchase postage. Once you click 'Okay' below, you cannot change this transaction." Why does Stamps.com have the second pop-up button?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pop-up button is necessary to show acceptance of the terms. This is commonly known as a "click-wrap agreement," where the user must click "okay" to accept the terms and conditions of the purchase. This helps ensure that the customer is aware of the terms they are agreeing to before completing the transaction.
