NCOA

Update & Clean Your Mailing Addresses with National Change of Address Processing.

At AmeriList, our NCOA Processing solutions help businesses improve mailing accuracy, reduce undeliverable mail, and keep customer and prospect databases up to date using USPS National Change of Address data.

Keep Your Mailing Lists Current With NCOALink® Processing.

Every year, millions of consumers and businesses relocate, making outdated mailing addresses one of the biggest challenges in direct marketing and customer communication. If your database is not regularly updated, your campaigns may result in returned mail, wasted postage, missed opportunities, and reduced marketing performance.

Our NCOALink® processing services help businesses identify address changes and update records before mailing, helping improve deliverability and overall database quality.

Keep Your Customer & Prospect Data Current

Consumers move, businesses relocate, and mailing addresses become outdated over time. Our National Change of Address processing services help businesses maintain cleaner, more accurate databases by matching records against USPS NCOALink data containing millions of permanent address changes.

By updating addresses before deployment, businesses can significantly reduce undeliverable mail and improve direct marketing efficiency.

Your marketing database is constantly changing.

What Is NCOA Processing?

NCOA, or National Change of Address processing, is a data hygiene solution that updates mailing addresses using official USPS change of address records.

AmeriList processes your mailing list against the USPS NCOALink database to identify individuals and businesses that have filed a change of address request with the postal service. This allows outdated records to be updated with the most current available mailing address information before your campaign is mailed.
