BillSoft Announces Partnership for Certification of EZGeoTM and EZGeo Online
Overland Park, KS, July 17, 2006 – BillSoft, Inc., the market leader for communications taxation announced today that it has partnered with AES Systems, Inc. to provide CASS certified address validation. CASS certification allows companies to obtain discounted postal rates for bulk mailings with a higher degree of accuracy for carrier routes, 5-digit ZIP codes, ZIP+4 codes and delivery point addresses.
CASS stands for Coding Accuracy Support System and was developed by the United States Postal Service® to improve the accuracy of mailings. Implementing postal address certification as part of data-entry minimizes liability and imposes quality assurance against undeliverable and returned mailings. EZGeo and EZGeo Online have been integrated with AES’ system to provide this high level of accuracy and data quality.
With both EZGeo and EZGeo Online integrated with CASS certified software, BillSoft customers can use the systems to receive substantial postage discounts for their mailings. The products also take the validated address to assign the proper taxing jurisdiction for communications and retail transactions. In addition, EZGeo and EZGeo Online return further information such as the incorporated vs. unincorporated distinction, county information and special tax districts.
“Our customers have become increasingly aware of the importance of cleansed and validated addresses, “ said Vicki Klein, President of BillSoft. “We are excited to provide this enhanced functionality to our client base,” said Klein.
