Update mailing list in minutes | 48-month NCOALink Processing

NCOALink services improve delivery rates

NCOALink services improve delivery rates in three important ways. First, NCOALink provides new addresses for moves within the last 48 months. Having an updated mailing address helps you ensure more of your mail pieces reach their recipient. Second, it identifies other move data, which helps you avoid sending mail to vacant, invalid, or just plain wrong addresses. Third, NCOALink standardizes all of your addresses to meet USPS mail standards. This makes it easier for the post office to deliver the mail.

There are several steps in NCOALink processing that improve delivery rates.

• Coding Accuracy Support System (CASS) evaluates address-matching software and improves the accuracy of carrier route, 5-digit ZIP^®, ZIP + 4^®, and delivery point codes that appear on mail pieces.
• Delivery Point Verification (DPV) identifies whether a ZIP + 4^® coded address is currently represented in the USPS^® delivery file as a known address record. DPV allows users to confirm known USPS addresses as well as identify potential addressing issues that may hinder delivery.
• Residential Delivery Indicator (RDI) is licensed by the Postal Service and works with certified CASS™ software or an address standardization tool provider to verify delivery type status.

In combination, these steps update and standardize address data. They also help to identify vacant and invalid addresses. Using NCOALink to find address updates and excluding vacant and invalid addresses improves delivery rates even further. When your mail list only contains accurate, mailable addresses more mail pieces make it to their intended recipient.
