Big news! Melissa Data announced that their Address Check Web Service is now available on Windows Azure Marketplace for Microsoft’s Data Quality Services (or any client that embeds the API). Address Check provides real-time address verification and standardization for U.S. and Canadian addresses.
Users, from both small and large businesses can easily add Address Check to their applications to save money on postage and reduce undeliverable mail and shipments by cleaning up inaccurate, incomplete, or undeliverable addresses at point of entry.
“Melissa Data’s Address Check enables users to easily discover, purchase, and manage premium data subscriptions,” said Prashant Ketkar, director of Windows Azure, at Microsoft. “This service is a welcome addition to the Windows Azure Marketplace.”
The Address Check service validates address data against the most current reference data from the U.S. Postal Service® and Canada Post. The programming logic used by Address Check is CASS CertifiedTM by the USPS® – ensuring that the highest quality of data is returned. The service includes DPV®, LACSLink®, SuiteLink®, EWS (Early Warning System), and exclusive AddressPlus to add missing apartment numbers for increased deliverability.
