Address Autocomplete API

Avoid Bad Data

It keeps the wrong or incorrect data from entering your system. That further helps in the right and on-time delivery of mail pieces, reduced cost for direct mail marketing, and excellent communication with your customers.

Boost Deliverability Rate

With only the correct addresses in your system, the delivery rate also enhances significantly. As the API also provides the validity and deliverability status of the address listed.

Simplify Checkout Process

Implementing it on your checkout page can make the entire process extremely simple. If you’re an eCommerce store or offer third-party goods delivery, then it is a must for your company.

Reduce Cart Abandonment

The sooner people checkout, the lesser is the cart abandonment rate. It’s as simple as that. Plus, the API also helps reduce shopper fatigue.

Eliminate Errors

When people enter their address details, sometimes they end up putting typos or incorrect information. The API ensures that it doesn’t happen anymore.

Standardize Addresses

The API also standardizes your addresses along with suggesting verified data. In addition, it helps to keep all of your customers’ details in the format provided by the official database of Royal Mail.

Address Validation

Apart from letting the right addresses enter your system, the API can also help you cleanse your existing database.

Superior Data Quality

Every business needs to collect and store only the correct customer data in their system because the data quality determines the performance of their most business operations.

For instance, if you decide to launch a direct mail marketing campaign, then printing the number of direct mails designated to the wrong address will add useless costs to your marketing budget.

Plus, the delivery charges will also add up. Apart from that, the analytical reports of your campaigns will also be imprecise as you actually don’t know how many direct mail pieces you sent got lost on the way, delivered to the wrong addresses, or reached one recipient multiple times.

Integrating an address autocomplete API is one of the best ways to have quality data in your system and avoid such scenarios.

Secondary Unit Designators

When you integrate PostGrid with your system, it provides you with the primary user address with the secondary unit of their address like their building name, floor number, apartment number, etc.

Zero-Code Integration

PostGrid offers zero-code integration. It means that you or any of your team members can easily access and process the address autocomplete API.

Perfect Match for eCommerce

• If you own an eCommerce website, an Address Autocomplete API can be your best friend and help you grow your business considerably. It will ease the checkout process for your visitors tired of browsing, choosing just the perfect products for them.
