Logistics & Delivery: Validating 3rd party set of addresses

Most logistics and delivery companies validate 3rd party addresses by cross-checking them with their own or 3rd party database / APIs, or even via Google’s Geocoding API. However this won’t be enough in most cases: these solutions will only tell you that something is wrong with an address, but they won’t tell you why it’s wrong. They will also only validate the fields provided by the customer at checkout but won’t tell you which fields are missing.

Transliteration for address verification

If you operate in regions such as the Middle East or Asia, you might be having issues when translating addresses written in special characters. Translating languages such as Arabic and Chinese require a complex process of transliteration from one system of writing to another based on phonetic similarity. ACE incorporates advanced machine learning technologies for an accurate transliteration that allows for faster address validation while maintaining the integrity of the address.

Financial Services & Insurance: Address Validation for KYC & Fraud prevention

Having the right Address Validation system in place is critical for financial services and insurance companies: ensuring a customer provides a valid address when opening a bank account helps prevent fraudulent users. It also guarantees that customers receive key communications via post, such as bank cards. Additionally, maintaining a clean address data set enables the collection of debts to be simplified by ensuring correspondence is received to enforce repayments.
