Announcements

The LACSLink Product is a secure dataset of converted addresses that primarily arise from the implementation of a 911 system, which commonly involves changing rural-style addresses to city-style addresses. The LACSLink Product also contains existing city-style addresses that have been renamed or renumbered.

The LACSLink Product:

  • Reduces undeliverable mail by providing the most current address information for matches made    to the LACSLink file.
  • Lowers mailer costs by reducing the number of undeliverable and duplicate mailpieces by using    the most current address information.
  • Provides the opportunity for faster product/service marketing through accurate mail delivery.

    • Effective August 1, 2007, CASS Certified™ software is required to use both LACSLink and DPV™ products when processing address lists. This new requirement ensures ZIP + 4® codes will be assigned only when the primary number of the address can be validated using the DPV Product and whether the input address reflects any applicable municipality address conversions.

    There are three (3) licensing categories.
