WooCommerce Address Validation and Autocomplete | Addressfinder

Description

The Addressfinder plugin for WooCommerce adds verified address autocomplete capability to the shipping and billing address fields of your online store. The plugin suggests verified addresses to your customers as they type and then auto-fills the address elements into the appropriate fields on selection.

This plugin aids in validating the addresses of your customers before they place their order on your store, maximising your data quality and limiting misdeliveries costs resulting from incorrect address entry.

Get Verified Addresses

No more mistakes. Save verified addresses straight from your checkout to your database. The Addressfinder address database is the most comprehensive address dataset in Australia and New Zealand. Our addresses are directly verified by authoritative sources such as Australia Post, New Zealand Post, and more. When Addressfinder suggests a postal address, you can be sure that it is accurate and that your delivery is heading to the right place.

Access the latest addresses

Leave the hard work to us. The Addressfinder address database is refreshed monthly so you can rely on the data being available and up to date. Our data sources provide us with the freshest data so customers living in new developments or multi-dwelling apartments will still be able to validate their addresses.

No programming required

This plugin is super easy to set up. It does not require any coding experience and you can have it working and validating addresses in minutes.

Reduce time to checkout

On average, our address autocomplete will display the desired address in 10-12 keystrokes, greatly reducing data entry time and potential for errors. Users can be sure their address is correct and move through to the checkout with confidence.

Enhance mobile UX

User experience is critical to conversion rate. By using Addressfinder, your checkout experience is made simple for users inputting fields, greatly reducing required keystrokes on small mobile keyboards. Our plugin is responsive and friendly across popular devices and browsers.

This plugin knows all the apartment numbers, all the levels of Sydney high rise buildings, It's awesome. So much so, that I'm now struggling to go international with such ease and completeness.

So nice to come across a plugin that works out of the box , and you dont have to a degree from MIT to install. Now we just need to get the NZPOst and the couriers to agree on Rural addresss . Lastly a NI or SI at the end of address to identify which island it is. I know give us the moon and we ask for the stars.
