Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information Segment Information
Our reportable segments are Global Ecommerce, Presort Services and SendTech Solutions. Global Ecommerce and Presort Services comprise the Commerce Services reporting group. The principal products and services of each reportable segment are as follows:
Global Ecommerce: Includes the revenue and related expenses from products and services that facilitate domestic retail and ecommerce shipping solutions, including fulfillment and returns, and global cross-border ecommerce transactions.
Presort Services: Includes revenue and related expenses from sortation services to qualify large volumes of First Class Mail, Marketing Mail and Bound and Packet Mail (Marketing Mail Flats and Bound Printed Matter) for postal worksharing discounts.
SendTech Solutions: Includes the revenue and related expenses from sending technology solutions for physical mailing, digital mailing and shipping, financing, services, supplies and other applications to help simplify and save on the sending, tracking and receiving of letters and packages.
Management measures segment profitability and performance using segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT). Segment EBIT is calculated by deducting from segment revenue the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges and other items not allocated to a particular business segment. Management believes that it provides investors a useful measure of operating performance and underlying trends of the business. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations. The following tables provide information about our reportable segments and reconciliation of segment EBIT to net loss.
