The checkout friction that’s costing you thousands in lost sales is about to disappear.
Picture this: A customer finds the perfect product on your Shopify Plus store, adds it to their cart, and heads to checkout—only to abandon their purchase halfway through typing their address on their mobile device. Sound familiar? This scenario plays out millions of times across e-commerce platforms, contributing to the staggering 70.19% average cart abandonment rate that plagues the industry.
But here’s the exciting news—that frustration is about to become a thing of the past.
We’re thrilled to announce that Address Guard now supports Address Autocomplete for all 240+ countries in our network – built for Shopify Plus brands.
This intelligent feature brings the same trusted functionality that brands have relied on with Address Guard—now seamlessly integrated into your checkout experience. In just one minute of setup time, you can transform your Plus checkout from a potential roadblock into a conversion catalyst, helping you capture more of those abandoned sales while delighting your customers with effortless address entry.
The Hidden Cost of Manual Address Entry
Before diving into the game-changing benefits of address autocomplete, let’s examine the true cost of forcing customers to manually type their addresses—especially on mobile devices where mobile users abandon carts at an alarming 85%.
Every character your customers have to type is another opportunity for them to second-guess their purchase. Every typo they make increases frustration. Every extra second spent fumbling with tiny keyboard keys on their smartphone brings them closer to that dreaded “X” button.
The financial impact is staggering. Companies lose approximately $18 billion in annual sales revenue due to abandoned shopping carts, with $260 billion worth of lost orders which are recoverable solely through a better checkout flow & design.
Why Address Guard’s Address Autocomplete Changes Everything
Our Address Autocomplete solution isn’t just a convenience feature—it’s a conversion optimization powerhouse that addresses multiple pain points simultaneously. Built on the same foundation that powers our comprehensive address validation platform today, this solution brings enterprise-grade accuracy to your checkout process. Here’s why brands that implement Address Guard see immediate improvements in their checkout completion rates:
- Speed that converts – Address autocomplete can help e-commerce companies reduce checkout time by 30%, transforming what used to be a laborious process into something that feels almost magical. Customers simply start typing their street information, and the system instantly presents their full validated address for selection across 240+ countries.
- Accuracy That Builds Trust – Manual address entry is a breeding ground for errors. Typos, misspellings, and formatting inconsistencies don’t just frustrate customers—they create real business problems. Our platform today does a great job of handling these issues with AI autocorrect (US only) and our rules engine, but being able to resolve issues at checkout – before they occur downstream is why Autocomplete is so powerful.
- Mobile-First Experience – With mobile commerce representing an increasingly large portion of e-commerce traffic, optimizing for mobile isn’t optional—it’s survival. Our Autocomplete solution streamlines the mobile checkout process by simplifying the address entry step.
