A verified address is an address listed in the NZ Post address database. These addresses are known to be correctly formatted and correspond to deliverable locations. Mighty Ape uses these verified addresses to provide certain NZ Post delivery services.
How to get a verified address
To verify your address, use the address search tool when you create a new address in the checkout or edit an existing address in your account settings. By selecting one of the valid addresses from the suggested address results, you can ensure that your address is verified.
How do you know if your address is verified

This ensures that the address is formatted correctly. If you are using an older saved address, or have entered the address details manually, your address will be unverified.

Why is a verified address important?
