Address Verify FAQs

What is address verification?

Address verification is the process of verifying the accuracy and completeness of a physical address. It involves checking for errors, inconsistencies, or outdated information to ensure that mail, deliveries, and other services reach their intended destinations.

An address can be verified in one of two ways: by capturing an address at the point of entry by the end user or by cleansing, parsing, matching formatting, transliterating and enhancing data in a database against reference data. Loqate does both!

What are the benefits of address verification?

There are many key benefits to incorporating address validation. Here are some of the most significant boosts you'll see:

Improved Delivery Rates: By correcting errors and inconsistencies, address verification helps to reduce the number of undeliverable mail and packages, leading to higher delivery rates and fewer lost items. That means happy customers and repeat business!

Enhanced Customer Satisfaction: Accurate addresses contribute to timely deliveries and a positive customer experience. When packages arrive on time, customers are more likely to be satisfied with their purchases. They’ll therefore be more likely to come back and tell others about your service.

Reduced Costs: Undeliverable mail and packages can incur additional costs for businesses, such as return shipping fees and customer service inquiries. Address validation helps to minimize these expenses.

Data Quality Improvement: Address validation ensures that address data is accurate and up-to-date, improving the overall quality of a business's customer database.
