What is address validation and verification?
Address validation is a method to check that the addresses you collect and have stored in your database are valid, accurate and exist by referencing authoritative data sources such as Royal Mail and USPS.
Powered by the most precise address and location data, Experian Address Validation is the most effective way to ensure only accurate, complete and correctly formatted addresses from 245 countries populate your database. The tool can validate and verify business and consumer addresses in real-time at the point of capture and in bulk for the existing address records in your database.
Addresses can also be enriched with additional attributes such as latitude/longitude coordinates, lifestyle and demographic data, business data, and Unique Point Reference Numbers (UPRNs) and more to provide a more detailed view of your customers.
