Is the Perfect Address SDK CASS-certified?
No, for some very valid reasons. CASS (Coding Accuracy Support System) certification by the US Postal Service would force us (and users of our products) to update the SDK address database every 60 days. In addition, USPS CASS rules prohibit accessing the address data in certain interactive ways, and enforce certain address matching rules which most users find inconvenient and illogical. So we have chosen not to CASS-certify the Perfect Address SDK. Under current USPS bulk mail discount rules, a mailing list must be processed by CASS-certified software every six months and meet other sorting and address-correction requirements in order to qualify for even the smallest postal discount. Such recent “postal reform” requirements have significantly raised the break-even threshold, effectively pushing bulk mail discounts beyond the reach of the small mailer. As the USPS further automates, we suspect that most postal discounts will eventually disappear altogether. Could this be the ultimate go
