Limitations of NCOALink™

NCOALink will not make lists 100% deliverable. While many factors determine the overall quality of mailing lists, NCOALink will help in reducing the amount of undelivered or delayed mail.

Since the NCOALink database contains 48 months of move information, new addresses can be received from NCOALink that are not available from other methods. The accuracy of your mailing list is very important. Incorrect spellings and missing information both play a key role in determining an NCOALink match.

For example, the NCOALink database contains "John Doe" at "123 First St Apt 101" and your Database contains "J. Doe" at "123 First St."

In this example no match would be made for several reasons:

• The name is not complete.
• The address is missing the apartment number.

This is a good example of an address that would not be updated by NCOALink. If a match is not made, return codes are provided.
