Geocoders

Converting customer addresses into geographic coordinates to power address validation and location-based features

Attach a geocoder to a market to enable address-to-coordinate conversion across that market's orders. Google and Bing are both supported.

What is a geocoder?

A geocoder converts a text address into geographic coordinates (for example, latitude 43.87913 and longitude 11.10094). Attaching one to a market enables coordinate lookups for customers' shipping and billing addresses on that mar

ket's orders.

Coordinates can be used to place markers on a map, validate addresses, power location-based promotions, and other location-aware operations. Google and Bing geocoder integrations are currently supported.
