Address Risk
Add Address Risk to your workflow to validate deliverability, detect fraudulent addresses, and strengthen identity correlation globally.
What is Address Risk?
Address Risk predicts the fraud likelihood of a physical address and its correlation to an identity using deliverability, tenure, and property type intelligence.
It supports a wide range of use cases including onboarding, logins, profile updates, checkouts, and delivery validation. By analyzing internal and external data, Address Risk detects risky addresses (e.g., undeliverable, correctional facilities, commercial drop points) and links them to consumer identity confidence.
