What are the benefits of address validation?


Fast 

- validate thousands of addresses in minutes

Verified 

- addresses are matched against authoritative NZ Post and LINZ datasets

Standardised 

- all verified addresses are in the same consistent address format

Enhanced 

- new metadata such as the latitude and longitude geocoordinates and Stats NZ Census metadata will be added too

Duplicated 

- missing attributes such as postal codes, suburbs and cities will be added to the addresses

Transparent 

- using the Addy ID or Parcel Number you can uniquely identify addresses for duplication detection

Recovered 

- Verify 500 addresses free per month, choose a plan if you need more
