Address Autocomplete and Verification API

With the Postcode Service API you can auto complete a partly given address and check its validity.

Since 2009, our API offers vendor-agnostic solutions that help clients save millions by ensuring that their packages are delivered to the correct addresses, preventing fraudulent deliveries, and calculating driver routes based on precise addresses. Additionally, our API can streamline address form filling on various websites, making the process faster and more accurate. We take pride in our commitment to delivering high-quality API services that provide the freedom and flexibility our clients need to succeed.

Premium API

Test credentials are provided below for initial usage. However, a subscription plan is necessary for continued access to this API. Visit postcodeservice.com to view pricing details and to purchase a subscription.

Additional plugins

For Adobe Magento users, we offer an out-of-the-box solution: the Postcode Service Magento extension. This extension, utilizing the same API, allows for easy and accurate address verification at checkout when using the Magento platform. It's available for download from our GitHub repository at github.com/postcodeservice/postcode-magento2. Our team of experts in Amsterdam develop, support, and maintain this extension to provide seamless integration with the Postcode Service API.

The Dutch company JustBetter has developed an alternative for the default Adobe Magento PWA frontend and integrated the Postcode Service with this frontend. This integration is available for download from their GitHub repository at github.com/rapidez/postcodeservice.

Questions and support

You can contact our experts via support@postcodeservice.com or call our office in Amsterdam +31 20 218 1024.

Authenticating requests

Our API uses authenticated requests. In order to make an authenticated request, add the follow headers along with your API call:

One header should contain X-ClientId with the value {YOUR_CLIENT_ID}.
The second header should contain X-SecureCode with the value {YOUR_SECURE_CODE}.
For optimal performance, we recommend adding the X-Domain header with the value {YOUR_DOMAIN_URL} to your API requests. This header helps distribute your requests evenly across our load balancers, which can improve response times and enhance overall API performance. Although this header is optional, we highly recommend using it to ensure the best possible user experience.

You can replace {YOUR_CLIENT_ID} and {YOUR_SECURE_CODE} with the credentials in the table below for testing.

Visit postcodeservice.com to obtain your unique ClientId and SecureCode.

Test credentials

Try it yourself with the provided credentials below.

X-ClientId	1177
X-SecureCode	9SRLYBCALURPE2B
X-Domain (optional)	your-domain-name.com

Please note that these test credentials have limitations, including daily usage limits and added delays.

Rate Limiting Policies

If you receive a 429 HTTP server response code (429 Too Many Requests) when making API calls, it indicates that you have sent too many requests in a given amount of time. By default, the maximum number of requests allowed is 10 requests per second. Once your requests fall below this limit, you will receive the usual API responses again.

If you require a higher rate limit than the default, please contact your account manager at +31 20 218 1024. They will be able to assist you in increasing your rate limit to meet your needs.

only_status string optional

Provide 0 or 1. By default, this is turned off (value 0). When turned on, the response returns no body content, only HTTP STATUS 204 when matched. Example: 0
