A method for franking mailpieces is disclosed. An operating unit (BE) is operated separately from a franking unit (FE). The operating unit (BE) transmits a transaction request (B1) to a separate authorization unit (BR). The authorization unit (BR) ascertains on the basis of an authorization profile whether the user is authorized to use the operating unit (BE). The transmitted transaction request is authenticated by the authorization unit (BR) according to the ascertained authorization. The authorization unit (BR) converts the authenticated transaction request (Bl) into a transaction job, which is transmitted (B3) to the franking unit (FE). The authorization unit (BR) is authenticated (B4) in the area of the franking unit (FE) and the franking unit (FE) checks whether the authorization unit (BR) is authorized to authorize users and/or transaction requests transmitted by users. The transaction job is processed (B4) in the franking unit (FE) subsequently, and the result of the execution of the transaction job is sent out (B5) by the franking unit.
