Impact

78% reduction in address data entry time

20% reduction in input errors

Supports 250+ countries and 130+ address formats

Challenge

Entering addresses is a common point of friction for users, particularly across different countries, formats, and languages. Manual entry is slow, error-prone, and often leads to drop-off during critical flows such as checkout and account creation. The challenge was to design an experience that could handle global complexity while remaining fast, simple, and intuitive for everyday users.

Solution

I designed the original Address Capture product, creating a real-time autocomplete experience that validates and formats addresses as users type. The design focused on speed, clarity, and progressive disclosure — reducing typing effort while handling complex global address rules behind the scenes. The product has since evolved through continuous enhancement, adapting to new data sources, address formats, and customer needs over time.

Execution

The work included the design of the autocomplete interaction, suggestion hierarchy, validation states, and error handling. Visual and interaction patterns were refined over time to support speed, accessibility, and global usability.

Contribution

I was responsible for the original product design and ongoing evolution of the tool.

  • Designed the core UX and UI for the Address Capture experience

  • Defined interaction patterns for real-time lookup, suggestion, and validation

  • Designed for global address formats, languages, and edge cases

  • Contributed to ongoing enhancements over the product’s 10+ year lifecycle

Outcome

Address Capture became a long-standing core product within the Loqate platform, helping organisations reduce friction, improve data quality, and increase conversion across onboarding and checkout flows. Its longevity reflects both the robustness of the original design and its ability to evolve with changing requirements.
