usps certifies melissa data with ncoalink® full service provider license
New certification provides mailers with access to
48-months of up-to-date address information
for maximum mail deliverability
Melissa Data (www.MelissaData.com) is pleased to announce it has been licensed as an NCOALink Full Service Provider by the USPS® United States Postal Service®). As one of only a handful of Full Service Providers, Melissa Data can update third party mailing lists and customer files against the full 48-month change-of-address file containing over 160 million change-of-address records, as opposed to the 18-month file provided to Limited Service Provider licensees.
“We are very proud to be a certified Full Service Provider,” says Chris Rowe, vice president of data enhancement services at Melissa Data. “Bringing the processing of the full 48-month file in house allows us to provide the most complete NCOALink product to our customers at very attractive pricing, especially large volume customers with datasets of 20+ million records.”
In addition to offering full 48-month NCOALink processing, Melissa Data is the first provider to offer a 24-month processing service for the price of their 18-month service – with very low minimums so customers can affordably update small files. Faster turnarounds, increased automation and security are available to customers by using Melissa Data’s proprietary ListWare® software, which extracts and formats only the fields required for NCOALink processing, then automatically merges the updated fields back into the customer’s original database.
