What is MPS?

The Mailing Preference Service (MPS) is a free and easy way to reduce unsolicited direct mail.

The DMA is the UK's only business organisation with a consumer protection division, supporting the DMA Code's customer-first principles. Recognised by the ICO and supported by Royal Mail. MPS helps reduce unwanted marketing mail through your letterbox. It won't block overseas, unaddressed mail, or mail addressed to “The Occupier”. Registration can take up to three months to see the full effect.

For fewer baby-related mailings please refer to BMPS.

Need to raise a complaint?

Make sure your complaint falls into the MPS remit, often consumers are unaware that Overseas and Unaddressed mail are not part of the MPS remit.

Our Licensees
