Prepaid credits can be redeemed at any time within 12 months of purchase and are are a cost effective way of buying small amounts of data regularly as your needs require.

Compliance approval - How long will it take to process my data audience?

Each data order takes only a few minutes to process and extract however we do advise to allow approximately 1 working day to allow for a number of compliance and verification checks to be carried out by Selectabase and Experian prior to the authorisation of consumer data orders. Part of these checks include:

– Confirmation of your industry (business type or activity)
– If you are a Financial Services provider you are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
– You are registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) as a data controller and therefore fit to handle consumer data
– A review of your selection criteria
– Details of the promotion planned and a copy of the actual marketing material you intend to use

If these checks have already been completed then your data order will be processed straight away.

Once your order is approved by Selectabase (and in some cases Experian) you will be sent a notification email.

PLEASE NOTE: In certain circumstances your data order may not be approved. In these cases we will notify you immediately, your order will be cancelled and a full refund completed via our payment provider within 1 working day (we are unable to confirm when funds will appear within your account as this is beyond our control and will depend on your bank and card provider, however we usually find this can take between 3-5 working days).

Can I get help when using Prospect Download?

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