Address Verification Postcards: A Creative Way to Verify Member Location

There are many reasons why businesses should verify the location of their members using postcards or letters. Some of the most important reasons include:

• To prevent fraud. By verifying the location of members, organizations can help to prevent fraud, such as identity theft and credit card fraud. Learn more about how to prevent fraud in your marketplace here.
• To comply with regulations. Many industries have regulations that require businesses to verify the location of their customers by sending physical mail pieces. For example, financial institutions are required to verify the location of their customers in order to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations. That’s when postcards and letters come in handy.
• To improve customer service. By verifying the location of members, businesses can provide better customer service. For example, businesses can use location information to personalize their offerings to members and to provide them with more relevant information and support.
• To grow their business. By verifying the location of members, businesses can learn more about their customers and their needs. This information can be used to develop new products and services, to target marketing campaigns, and to expand into new markets.
