Address verification via external API #66

Open adamdecaf opened 4 years ago

adamdecaf commented 4 years ago

Verifying addresses exist will come up as a feature to add into Customers. We would do this with several external API's as various customers will have existing deals with vendors and want to use them.

Edit: Lots of these services will support bulk API's, so would it be acceptable for Customers to check addresses in an async fashion? Does Customers need to re-check the address on some interval?

The top result I looked at was SmartyStreets

we use Smartystreets and its great, easy to use and robust ... the other thing you'll want to think about long term though is NCOA - just about every bank tracks change of address on their customer base and NCOA "APIs" are. much more of a pain ... this is something people would definitely love to have and need in the industry

I can't believe Smarty Streets dropped NCOA support. They had the best solution in the market.
