Address Verify
Fix errors the moment they appear. Autoaddress Verify checks delivery addresses from express checkout, manual entry and external systems to identify incomplete, inaccurate or undeliverable addresses before they cause delivery problems.
Verify every address, whatever the checkout journey.
Whether your addresses are coming from express checkouts, manual entry, or other external systems, the Autoaddress Verify API ensure they are correct and deliverable.
Identify inaccurate, incomplete and undeliverable addresses before orders are dispatched.
The express checkout challenge
Multiple address sources
Express checkout can replace the address entered on your form with a saved digital wallet address, creating delivery & validation issues.
Wrong address information
Customers check out with outdated or incomplete addresses stored in the digital wallet. Can lead to failed deliveries & follow-up work.
Delivery rules bypassed
Digital wallet addresses can override your checkout rules. Results in potentially sending orders to areas you don’t serve or can’t deliver to.
No validation opportunity
If a customer skips your checkout form, you lose the chance to validate their address. This is where the problems can start.

Simple logic: presenting the results
To ensure minimal friction, we automatically fix minor corrections and misspellings. Your customers will only be prompted to make changes when deliverability is affected.

Simple Logic
Minor misspellings and corrections are automatically processed without the need for your customers involvement. If the differences are greater then we’ll give you an option to suggest to your customer.
We’ll also apply your custom rules, like no PO boxes or mainland delivery only
- Accept - Address validated
- Confirm - May have omitted Apartment etc.
- Suggest - Highlight difference with matched address
- Reject - Custom or courier rules
Detailed Data
Did we change the address? Did we append or fix the postcode? If we couldn’t validate the address, is it because it’s incomplete?
We pass back detailed information where you can apply your own custom logic. Explore the Address Verify API documentation to see available response data and integration options.

Here, “EPSG:4326” is the designation for latitude and longitude in the WGS84 system — a standard recognized worldwide by navigation systems, Google Maps, and similar platforms.
We return an accuracy parameter with every coordinate, with the majority of our location information available at BUILDING (rooftop) level.
