Powered by the most accurate address and location data, Experian Address Validation is the fastest way to capture, complete, format, validate and enrich addresses from 245 countries in real-time. With flexible address searching methods, Experian Address Validation can reduce your data entry time by up to 80% and ensure that only accurate billing, shipping and contact addresses enter your database with the latitude/longitude coordinates to pinpoint your customers' addresses.

This solution works by standardizing, validating and enriching addresses at the point of data entry. Whether you use in your website, at a point of sale, or in a call center or CRM, the API integrates seamlessly for faster data capture. 

The address searching methods available are: 

• Auto-complete - User starts to type an address into the form, and a suggested picklist appears with results for the user to choose from. The picklist results are continually refined as the user types.  
• Single-field - User types the address into a single field, separated by commas. Once submitted, a list of matching or similar addresses are returned for the user to select from. 
• Multi-field - User types the address into multiple fields in a form. Once submitted, a list of matching or similar addresses are returned for the user to select from.
