Address Verification – New Optional Upgrade

This is a brand new optional upgrade that will automatically verify the addresses of your contacts to ensure you are always up to date with your contacts’ most recent addresses. Each night your database will be synced with the USPS list to format your addresses and search for people who moved. This will save you money on postage by reducing returned mail if you send letters by mail regularly. Plus, you save significant time by not having to chase down updated addresses and manually enter information. Now, with a click of a button, you can have the right information on hand when you need it.

See pricing and how it works in the Address Verification Guide.
