About Match Percentages:

NCOALink service will overwrite old addresses with new addresses and supply a status code indicating which input records have changed. Your match percentage will depend on the accuracy and age of the data in your list. The average percentage updated is 4-6%. Your input records must match the NCOALink database exactly to find an address change; otherwise no match will be given. In this case, a “near match” will be provided in the form of Return Codes.

Pricing:
There are no electronic transfer fees and no additional charges for Return Codes. Standard turnaround time is next business day. You can get same-day turnaround guaranteed (RUSH ORDER) with files of less than one million records. For RUSH ORDERS there is an additional $100.00 fee. All RUSH ORDERS must be received before 12 p.m. PST. The USPS neither establishes, approves, nor controls rates at which NCOALink services are offered.
