Consumer Mailing Lists, Choose Your Perfect Audience

Prospect Download Consumer is a pay as you go list building service, enabling you to buy the specific type of B2C direct mail data that you require, at an affordable price.

Simply build your list, count the quantity of available prospects, order your list, then contact your Account Manager to arrange your targeted postal mailing.

While the core data for mailing includes Title, Forename, Surname, Postal Address, and Postcode, Prospect Download Consumer offers a vast range of selection criteria you can utilise to refine and target your mailing list. This allows you to create highly focused audience segments for impactful direct mail campaigns, seamlessly integrated with our print and post service.

Prospect Download Consumer provides a convenient and easy way to find and purchase high-quality, accurate, and fully legal B2C marketing lists specifically designed for direct mail campaigns.

Prospect Download is provided by Selectabase, a leading UK independent direct marketing provider and member of the Direct Marketing Association.

The data used in Prospect Download Consumer is primarily sourced from Experian’s market-leading ConsumerView Database. Experian obtains this data compliantly from various reliable sources, including trusted data partners, publicly available data, and consumer and market research surveys.

The Prospect Download Consumer database is completely rebuilt every month with fresh and updated data.

You can access free counts of your selections from the Prospect Download Consumer database by registering (free of charge) and logging in to conduct your searches based on a wide range of selection criteria. This allows you to see how many potential customers meet your chosen criteria.

No, the registration information you provide will not be passed on to any third parties or used for any other purpose beyond your account with Selectabase.

Please note that as part of our standard data compliance process, the details of your intended mailing campaign and marketing materials may be shared confidentially with our data supplier, Experian, solely for the purpose of campaign approval and compliance with data protection regulations.

Your details may be used by Selectabase to update you on offers and products which may be of interest by email or mail, but you will always have a clear and easy way to opt-out of receiving such communications.

Prospect Download Consumer offers a wide range of search criteria to help you build highly targeted mailing lists.

For a complete overview of all available criteria, please visit the list builder page.

Yes! When you’re building your list on the Build Your List page, simply click “Save Search” before or after running a count. This allows you to easily save your selection criteria and give it a unique name for future reference.

The cost of your mailing list is calculated based on credits, which are determined by the quantity of addresses you require. Once you’ve built your list, contact your Account Manager for a final quote that includes both the list data and the full print and post service.

While we don’t usually provide the mailing list for download due to data protection regulations, we offer a comprehensive print and post service to mail on your behalf.

This allows you to select your target audience and have us print and mail your marketing materials directly to them. When preparing the data for mailing purposes, we extract the following data fields: Title, Forename, Surname, Address Line 1-6, and Postcode.

Not if you don’t wish to. This is because you have the option to control who receives your mailings through the “Previous Orders to Exclude” option. You can choose to exclude previously mailed audiences or upload your own lists for suppression, ensuring you reach a fresh set of potential customers each time.

Absolutely! You can order any number of prospects to fit your budget. There’s no minimum quantity requirement. This allows you to start small and scale your campaigns as needed.

Once you’ve conducted a count, you can choose to order a smaller amount from the available results. Your cost in credits will automatically adjust based on your selected quantity.

Payment is made using prepaid credits.

Credits are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase, allowing you to draw down on the mailing data you need as you need it. With credits, you can order data without having to enter your payment details each time. Buying credits in bulk also reduces the cost per address.

You can purchase credits in advance using a payment card or you can pay for the data as part of a postal mailing. If you prefer to pay by bank transfer, please contact a member of our team on 01304 383838.

For card payments, ensure you provide the correct billing address associated with your card to avoid delays due to fraud prevention measures.

Each data order typically takes just a few minutes to process and extract. However, please allow approximately 1 working day for Selectabase and Experian to carry out a series of compliance and verification checks before authorising your consumer data order. These checks include:

• Confirmation of your industry (business type or activity) and any relevant regulatory bodies (e.g., FCA for Financial Services).
• Verification of your ICO registration as a data controller.
• Review of your selection criteria to ensure responsible data usage.
• Examination of your planned promotion and marketing materials for compliance.

If these checks have already been completed for your account, your data order will be processed promptly.

Once your order is approved by Selectabase and, if necessary, Experian, you will receive a confirmation email.

In rare cases, your data order may not be approved due to non-compliance with regulations. If this occurs, you will be notified promptly, your order will be cancelled, and any used credits will be refunded.

Yes, you can call 01304 383838 to speak to one of our customer service team.

While we may have restrictions on releasing the mailing list due to data protection regulations, you can leverage our comprehensive print and post service to maximise the value of your targeted audience.

Simply select your desired audience using Prospect Download Consumer and let us handle the rest. We’ll print and mail your marketing materials directly to your chosen recipients, ensuring a seamless and compliant campaign execution.

To comply with data protection regulations, it’s important to ensure data remains up to date. The data provided is intended for a one-time mailing within 3 months of your order. However, we recommend using it within one month to ensure the data is as fresh as possible.
