NCOALink Change of Address Verification
Each year over 40 million Americans change their mailing addresses.
This change is equivalent to every person in California deciding to
change addresses and not tell you that they have moved. This
uncertainty results in wasted spending on undeliverable address mail,
returned mail and processing fees related to direct mail campaigns.
NCOALink solves this problem for you.
NCOALink provides you with the change of address data for any person,
family or business that has moved or changed mailing addresses within
the last four years. Using data supplied by the US Postal Service,
NCOALink provides your business with the best change of address data
available. It contains accurate, standardized addresses and delivery
point validation for individuals and companies in the United States.
How NCOALink Works
1.The US Postal Service has records of your customers' previous
addresses during the last four years.
2.On deciding to move, your customers complete the Change of Address
form at the US Postal office.
3.After you supply PacificEast with a file listing customer address
information, NCOALink matches your data against National Change of
Address records.
4.If a match is found, NCOALink returns a new address record for that
customer.
