The address verification software market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.39 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.7%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the rise of remote work and virtual services, the integration of AI and machine learning, expansion in healthcare and finance sectors, a heightened focus on data accuracy and quality, and the rapid urbanization contributing to address changes. Major trends expected during the forecast period include an increased focus on user experience, the development of industry-specific solutions, address verification for IoT, the adoption of blockchain for data security, and the utilization of geocoding and location intelligence.
The anticipated growth of the address verification software market is driven by the expanding travel and tourism industries. Travel and tourism, involving individuals or groups journeying away from their usual residence for various purposes, benefit from address verification software. This software enhances booking accuracy and facilitates streamlined customer communications by ensuring precise address details for reservations and travel itineraries. Notably, the United Nations World Tourism Organization reported a significant surge in international tourist travel in the first three months of 2023, reaching 235 million, more than double the corresponding period in 2022. Similarly, the US Department of Commerce recorded an increase in international visitors to the United States, rising to 22.1 million in 2021 from 19.2 million in 2020. Consequently, the burgeoning travel and tourism industries contribute to the growth of the address verification software market.
The address verification software market is further bolstered by the escalating trend of e-commerce and online transactions. In e-commerce, where accurate product delivery is paramount, address verification software plays a crucial role in preventing shipping errors. By validating customer-provided addresses in real time, this software reduces the risk of packages being sent to incorrect addresses, minimizing costly returns and enhancing customer satisfaction. The International Trade Administration reported that 82% of UK citizens made at least one online purchase in 2021, making the UK a leader in online purchases. Additionally, consumer e-commerce constitutes 30% of the UK retail industry, surpassing 20% in 2020, with annual revenue exceeding $120 billion. This trend drives the growth of the address verification software market by aligning with the increasing prevalence of e-commerce and online transactions.
The growth of the address verification software market faces a potential hindrance due to the high cost of the software. The surge in identity-related frauds and data breaches has led to heightened compliance management focus, necessitating the validation of address data precision and comprehensiveness. This increased demand for address verification software has resulted in higher pricing. For instance, PostGrid, a Canada-based company providing address verification through application programming interface (API) and automated platforms, offers subscription-based options starting at $170 per month per user for the address verification function in Smart Address 5. Consequently, the high cost of the software poses a challenge to the growth of the address verification software market.
Major companies in the address verification software market are strategically investing in innovative technologies, notably application program interfaces (API), to gain a competitive edge. APIs, acting as bridges between separate programs, are instrumental in the development of address verification solutions. The Universal Postal Union introduced a new address verification API exclusively for the postal sector, leveraging the S42 international postal address components and templates standard.
