Built-in Address verification is the missing piece

Address verification isn't just a nice-to-have feature—it's a critical business function that directly impacts your bottom line and customer satisfaction.

The impact of reliable address verification extends throughout your entire operation. Every returned package or piece of mail represents wasted shipping costs, lost time, and potential damage to customer relationships. Most importantly, it's an entirely preventable problem. When addresses are verified before shipping, businesses see immediate improvements in delivery success rates and significant reductions in associated costs.

Address verification goes beyond simple delivery success. Modern verification systems provide crucial data points that enhance your business intelligence. For instance, knowing whether an address is residential or commercial helps optimize shipping quotes and delivery routing. Access to detailed address components allows for better database management and customer segmentation.

The best part? These powerful capabilities might already be at your fingertips through the business tools you use every day. Let's explore some popular platforms that have directly integrated Smarty's address verification capabilities into their systems.

**NOTE: These integrations were developed by the providers themselves, not Smarty, and Smarty does not offer support for issues with these platforms. However, if you need help troubleshooting anything Smarty-related, we're happy to assist you.

The ability to validate addresses in real-time or batch processes, with options for both manual and automated systems, helps these organizations maintain data quality standards required by USCDI while improving their operational efficiency and the accuracy of their public health initiatives.

Accurate address data is essential for many—if not most—business operations, regardless of your industry. Many popular business platforms have recognized this and have integrated Smarty's address verification tools directly into their systems.

These integrations allow you to leverage Smarty's address verification capabilities without needing custom technical implementations (though those are available). By using these integrations, you can enhance your data quality, reduce costs, and improve your customer experience. The features offered by each platform vary, but they all aim to ensure accurate address data.

Around the World in 80 Days (with Smarty!)
Arrow Icon
Phony passports. Runaway trains. Rogue elephants. Hot air balloons. Phileas Fogg dodged them all in the 1956 movie adaptation of Jules Verne’s novel, Around the World in 80 Days. His race was against time. Today, your ecommerce business is running a race of its own; delivering quickly, accurately, and affordably across a world full of logistical landmines. Fortunately, you don’t need a valet named Passepartout to guide you (although wouldn’t that be fun?!) You just need Smarty. Smarty is your passport to global address data perfection, specializing in address verification, autocomplete, geocoding, and enrichment.
Address component analysis: A smarter way to validate addresses
Arrow Icon
Most address validation tools give you a simple thumbs up or down on an address because it either matches or it doesn’t, right? But what if you need more than just “valid” or “invalid” as a response? What if you could know exactly what part of the address is off, like a misspelled street name or an unconfirmed vanity city (like Hollywood), and why it isn’t considered valid?What if part of an address needed to change in order to make it a mailable, valid address? We think you’d want to know that, too.
BREAKING: Rooftop geocodes walk off the job—chaos mounting by the hour
Arrow Icon
Dateline: Tuesday, 8:04 a. m. In what experts are calling “the biggest location intelligence crisis since the discovery of space,” rooftop-accurate geocodes have officially gone on strike. The high-precision coordinates—normally pinpointing locations down to the exact rooftop for deliveries, telecom installs, insurance claims, and analytics—appeared on Smarty TV and issued a short but cutting statement this morning:“We’re tired of being taken for granted. We’re tired of being treated like just another number.
