Save Time & Money Using Address Validation

If your store has tried to ship to an invalid address, you know it has cost you both the time and money to resend the order to the customer. Never worry about this hassle again! Easily add address verification, auto-complete, or postcode lookup to your WooCommerce Checkout.

Postcode / Address Validation will simplify your checkout process and improve order address quality by having your customer validate or lookup their address during checkout. Improve your bottom line and customer happiness with Address Validation!

Postcode / Address Validation works by connecting your store to a service that provides address or postcode lookup. You can use Loqate, SmartyStreets, Postcode.nl, PostcodeSoftware.net, or Crafty Clicks.

Address auto-completion

Address auto-complete is available with Loqate, which works for merchants in any country. With a paid Loqate account, your customers can auto-complete addresses in any country and addresses can be classified as “residential” or “commercial”.

Merchants in any country can sign up for an Loqate account to get started.

See Loqate + WooCommerce in action.

Address verification

U.S. address verification uses SmartyStreets, which lets customers look up or verify an address, or accept recommended adjustments as needed. 250 lookups per month are available for free, and additional lookups can be purchased. SmartyStreets can also classify addresses (residential or commercial) or geocode them.

SmartyStreets is for U.S. merchants / U.S. address verification only. While SmartyStreets can provide international address validation services, our plugin does not support verification outside of the U.S. at this time.

See SmartyStreets + WooCommerce in action.

Postcode lookup

Address lookup by postcode is available for UK or NL addresses via one of the following providers: Postcode.NL, PostcodeSoftware.net, or Crafty Clicks.

PostcodeSoftware.net and Crafty Clicks use data from Royal Mail to perform UK address lookups based on postcode, so you can be assured of address data accuracy. You’ll need a low-cost plan with any of these providers to perform UK postcode lookups.

Merchants who’d like to offer postcode lookup in the Netherlands can use Postcode.NL to provide postcode lookup for Dutch addresses.
