Current programs

Lob for Good

Through our customer program, Lob for Good, we offer special donated and discounted pricing for nonprofits and for organizations whose work aligns with our focus areas of racial justice and civic action. 

Lob has enabled nonprofit organizations to:

• easily automate sending mail pieces as part of an omnichannel branding strategy
• trigger direct mail engagements based on donor or supporter milestones
• automate volunteer or vendor payments with checks
• leverage tracking events to trigger follow-up actions upon receipt of mail
• drive greater conversion and donor attribution using QR codes or personalized URLs
