Transparent Pricing vs Enterprise Quotes

Address Guard costs $0.05 per order. No monthly fees, no contracts, no sales calls to get a price. You sign up and start validating.

Address Guard includes published, predictable pricing that scales with your order volume — ideal for growing e-commerce brands that need cost certainty.

  • $0.05 per order, published on the website
  • No annual contracts or minimums
  • 100 free validations at signup
  • Enterprise custom pricing for 15,000+ orders/month

Shopify Integration for All Plans

Address Guard works with every Shopify plan, not just Plus. Post-checkout validation on thank-you pages covers Basic, Shopify, and Advanced plans. Shopify Plus merchants get full Checkout Extensions integration for in-checkout autocomplete and validation.

Address Guard includes native support for all Shopify tiers, so every merchant can validate addresses regardless of their plan level.

  • Works on Shopify Basic, Shopify, Advanced, and Plus
  • Post-checkout validation for non-Plus stores
  • Checkout Extensions for Plus stores
  • 1-click install from the Shopify App Store

Full E-Commerce Workflow

Address Guard automates the entire address correction workflow. When a bad address is detected, the order is held, the customer is emailed, and the corrected address syncs back to your platform. Your team handles exceptions, not every single order.

Address Guard includes built-in order holds, customer notifications, order tagging, and address syncing — everything you need to act on validation results without custom development.

  • Auto-hold orders with address problems
  • Customer notification emails with correction prompts
  • Order tagging for filtered views in Shopify
  • Address corrections synced back to your store
  • Rules engine for shipping policy enforcement
