America is constantly on the move.

The Challenge: 
Each year more than 44 million Americans change addresses but old data typically remains in databases. This means lost contact opportunities, lower retention & recovery, reduced ROI…and ultimately wasted money.

The Solution: The full USPS NCOA dataset (which we provide to our users)
The USPS masterfile contains approximately 160 million address changes. This translates into the freshest & most current addresses available from the USPS today.

  • The last 4 years of Individual, Family and Business moves
  • Appends new addresses to your list, along with move data, move type, etc.
  • Updated weekly, provides a mailing score for every address in your list
  • Reduces undeliverable mail by providing the most current address information
  • Includes robust dual-engine address standardization & hygiene
  • Includes CASS Certification, SuiteLink, LACSLink & Delivery Point Validation (DPV)

The 48-month National Change of Address dataset is updated weekly and contains approximately 100 million records more than the limited 18-month dataset and therefore achieves a much higher NCOA match rate
because of this huge breadth of data. The 18-month file is not recommended because it misses so many of these important address changes.

  • Increases deliverability & reduces exposure to return mail
  • Recommended NCOA use is every 95 days according to USPS
  • Update any list up to 25,000 addresses for just $75.00
