Points of Interest

New Zealand only feature

Make it easy for customers to find the right place - even when they don’t know the address

What is point of interest search?

Help people find places without needing an address

Customers don’t always know the exact street address, especially when they’re ordering to hospitals, public buildings, campuses, or landmarks. Point of Interest Search fills that gap by recognising place names and matching them to accurate address data.

For example searching “Wellington Hospital” will instantly return a complete, verified address in your form or checkout. This helps couriers deliver to public buildings, lets councils capture location data more easily, and more.

The Points of Interest feature is most commonly used to enhance the address autocomplete widget.

This allows end users to search either places or addresses making it easier for customers to find their address, reducing drop-offs and improving accuracy for deliveries, service calls and more.
