Selectabase: bulk mailing and targeted marketing lists in the UK

Selectabase is a British company based in Dover that has been operating in the direct marketing field since 1995. Its activity combines the sale of targeted data lists, the printing and postal dispatch of communications, and database cleansing, with the aim of ensuring its clients' campaigns reach the right audience.

Marketing lists for businesses and consumers

The company offers business and consumer lists that can be filtered using an online list-building tool. For business lists, filters include postcode, industry, turnover and employee size, and the data can be used for email, telemarketing or postal mailings. For consumer lists, segmentation is based on postcode, age, property value, income and many other criteria. In addition, Selectabase markets monthly updates of newly registered businesses in the UK, filterable by postcode or industry, and business change alerts that provide information on companies that have changed ownership, moved premises or opened a new branch.

Printing and postal dispatch

The printing and postal dispatch service covers the production and sending of letters, postcards, brochures and bespoke marketing pieces. The company also has a hybrid mail service that allows business letters to be sent directly from a computer using a secure print driver, with no minimum quantities. Selectabase presents itself as a UK-based company with GDPR compliance, offering end-to-end delivery and fast turnaround times.

Data cleansing and verification

Selectabase offers services to keep its clients' databases up to date and compliant. These include cleaning and updating records, email verification to improve deliverability and reduce bounces, UK landline verification, and screening telephone numbers against the TPS (Telephone Preference Service) and CTPS registers so that outbound calls comply with regulations. The company also allows invalid contacts to be removed and marketing lists to be refreshed.

Free tools and resources

The location tools include an address finder within a given radius of any UK postcode, a UK map, area maps and a downloadable list of districts.

Partner services and regulatory compliance
