Delivery Point Validation
To ensure that all packages are delivered to valid addresses, Message!Products
validates the delivery address you provide for your online orders
by comparing it to a database of known addresses. This validation
occurs during the Checkout process. Here are some typical Delivery
Point Validation results and an explanation of how they will be
handled:
- Exact Match:
- If we find an exact match, this process will be invisible to
you as the user. If we do not find an exact match or find no match
at all, you will be presented with options designed to ensure
that as many orders as possible are delivered to a valid address.
Close, Acceptable Match:- Our Delivery Point Validation may find that your address
does not exactly conform to postal standards, even though
you have entered a valid address. Postal standards include
the zip+4 and accurate abbreviations for words like Street
(St.) or Avenue (Ave.). In this event we will standardize
your shipping address but leave your check personalization
exactly as you have entered it. You will not be presented
with any options for updating the address.
Close, Unacceptable Match:- If Delivery Point Validation does not find an exact
match but is able to locate what it thinks is your correct,
standardized address, we will give you the option to use
the standardized address. If you choose this, your check
personalization, shipping and billing addresses will all
be updated to the standardized address. If you decide to
keep the address you have entered, Message!Products will not guarantee
the safe delivery of your products.
No Match:- Sometimes Delivery Point Validation will find no match
for the address entered. This could be because it is a brand
new address. In this event you will be given options to
either leave the address as you have entered it or return
to the ordering process to correct it manually. If you decide
to keep the address you have entered, Message!Products will not guarantee
the safe delivery of your products.
