Ever had that satisfying moment when you’re typing in an address and the Internet basically reads your mind and completes it for you in a dropdown menu? That’s what Address Autocomplete does. And it’s available right now to use on all your Unbounce landing pages.
When customers try to input their address online, they usually make mistakes – they might misspell a word or forget to include some important details like the apartment number and suite number. The best address lookup API providers can recognize these errors and correct them instantly. This eliminates the hassle of manually contacting your customer and asking them for the correct address, which can also lead to a cluttered form that slows down the process.
The most reliable address validation software starts with a comprehensive database and then adds addresses from additional RELIABLE sources in order to provide the most accurate results. For example, Smarty’s US address lookup API has 193 million addresses and includes addresses from every state. It also offers a geocoding API to turn each address into coordinates so that your customers can easily navigate to their destination.
Then, when a user selects a validated address from the list of suggestions, your landing page automatically populates individual address form fields with the correct address components. Then, it displays either a static map that visually enables users to confirm the accuracy of their selected address or a dynamic map that allows them to adjust the location pin to specify a more precise delivery location.
