How to Get the Most Out of the Google Address Validation API

Google recently announced a new Address Validation API that could be useful for improving user experiences. As part of the Google Maps Platform, this API is designed to improve operational efficiencies and reduce fraud by helping ensure that addresses are accurate and deliverable.



In order to get the most out of the Address Validation API, you must first understand what it does. It breaks down street addresses into smaller components. Then, it checks for errors and provides localized formatting and typo corrections.


Address validation is a simple process. However, it can have a big impact on the end user's experience. Using it correctly can help you save time and money. Additionally, it can help you detect fraudulent sign-ups and reduce shipping failures.


There are several different ways to validate an address. Some of them are free and some are more expensive. Depending on your needs, you may need to pay for support and maintenance. If you are planning on using the Address Validation API in conjunction with your existing service, you may want to consider the pros and cons of each one.


You should also keep in mind that storing an address for longer than 30 days may violate the Terms of Service. According to Google, your address data can only be stored for as long as necessary. Therefore, it is important that you use the most efficient methods for storing address data.


Having an accurate address can make or break your company's customer experiences. Incorrect addresses can lead to missed deliveries, canceled orders and customer support issues.
