JACKPOT CRID/MID Process for Mail Service Providers

MSP’s who prepare mailings that include multiple mail owners in a mailing with less than 5,000 pieces per owner and are meeting 90% Full-Service of eligible volume, may request authorization to use a  JACKPOT CRID/MID for identification of this volume. Correct use of this authorized JACKPOT CRID/MID will eliminate error code 7140 reporting for mailers that are preparing mail under the By/For Exception rule when a mail owner is presenting fewer than 5,000 pieces to the USPS in a mailing.
