National Change of Address (NCOA)

The NCOA (National Change of Address) service checks your constituents’ existing addresses against the US Postal Service database of all change-of-address requests in the preceding 48 months. Updated fields include new address, change of address date, and deliverability code. The US Postal Service requires addresses be NCOA processed within the past 90 days in order to qualify for postal discounts.

Address Verification (CASS Certification)

Address Verification keeps your data standardized and conforms to postal code preferences. The tool will automatically suggest prompts as the address is being typed and automatically populate zip codes according to the address presented.

Legislative District Geographic Appends

District Service Append verifies each address, then appends a county, US congressional district, and state legislative districts (Senate and House/Assembly) to all verified addresses. We append the new political districts and send the file back to you by email. Your credit card is billed upon completion of the job.

Email Append and Email Verification

Email Verification checks whether email addresses are deliverable or not based on connecting to their mail server as well as matching them to a database of email address.
