What it does
Typos and incomplete addresses at checkout lead to failed deliveries, reshipping and extra customer emails. This plugin tackles the problem at the point of entry. As a customer types, it looks up their address through a connected provider and offers verified results to fill in the shipping and billing fields. That gives you cleaner address data on every order and fewer surprises when it is time to ship.
You choose the lookup service that matches where you sell. Loqate provides global address auto-completion, while Postcode.nl, PostcodeSoftware.net and Fetchify offer postcode-based lookup for the UK and the Netherlands, with UK data drawn from sources such as Royal Mail. Setup happens in the WooCommerce settings, where you add your provider's API details. The plugin requires WooCommerce and also works with One Page Checkout layouts.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores shipping physical products
- Shops selling to customers in the UK or Netherlands
- Merchants handling both residential and business deliveries

Questions about WooCommerce Address Validation
Which address lookup services can I connect to?
