Download OpenAPI specification:
An API-based Address Validation Solution that cross-checks user-provided addresses against authoritative databases, such as telecom data, government registries, and logistics databases, to ensure accuracy. The API enhances security, reduces fraud, and improves efficiency in transaction processing and delivery services.
The real estate sector in the Philippines—especially in Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao—is experiencing rapid growth, with increased demand for residential leasing, property sales, and short-term rentals. However, property fraud and tenant verification remain major issues. Fake addresses are commonly used in rental applications, subleasing scams, and even in fake listings.
A property management company receives a rental application from a prospective tenant claiming to live in a Makati condo.
To verify the applicant, the agency uses the Address Validation API, which cross-references the declared address with telecom and government utility records.
The system flags the address as non-existent or inconsistent with public data.
The leasing officer is alerted and avoids onboarding a potentially fraudulent tenant.
Additionally, when posting listings, brokers and developers can verify that the address is valid and formatted correctly, improving listing accuracy on marketplpace platforms.

Unlike generic geocoding tools, this API provides multi-source address validation (telco, LGU, utilities) with fraud detection capabilities, tailored for the Philippine context, where informal addresses and PO boxes are common.
The Philippine government regularly deploys social welfare programs such as 4Ps, disaster relief, and emergency subsidies. However, beneficiary fraud and inefficiencies in aid delivery due to fake or unverified addresses lead to wasted resources and public dissatisfaction.
During typhoon relief efforts, DSWD compiles a list of aid recipients in a flood-prone barangay.
Before distributing cash assistance or goods, the agency integrates the Address Validation API to confirm that listed recipients reside in the claimed barangay.
The system flags duplicates and invalid addresses based on telco and LGU data.
As a result, resources are properly allocated to actual residents, and fraudulent claims are minimized.

Tech platforms powering e-governance or citizen services
Most government databases are fragmented and lack real-time validation. This API offers a unified, real-time verification tool that enhances data integrity across multiple systems, aligned with Philippine e-governance goals and compliance frameworks.
