Geocodio Address Lookup API Pricing

 If you want to improve the user experience during signup or checkout and reduce cart abandonment, removing the hassle of typing in a long address can save time and money. That’s why it is important to choose an API that will validate your address input, standardize it to the local postal authority format and identify whether an address is a real shipping or mailing address.



Google’s address autocomplete API is a popular choice for many web developers, but it has some serious downsides and limitations to be aware of. For example, Google will not predict PO boxes or apartment numbers and their validation product is incomplete, clunky and only available in 25 countries.

Additionally, Google has a 30 day maximum data storage limit on all of their services, which can have significant hidden costs when using it for large volumes of address verification. It is also not GDPR compliant and will not return results for EU citizens.

A better solution is a service like Geocodio that has zero restrictions in terms of rate limiting, billing and storing data. Additionally, the API is available in over 25 countries and includes RDI (residential delivery indicator) for most of them. RDI can be critical for calculating shipping quotes and costs to the end customer as well as helping to determine eligibility for certain promotions or programs. Additionally, our Geocoding API offers a full Unicode support so that users can enter addresses in their native language or characters.
