Address search

Snapforms’ address search feature displays a list of address suggestions when a form user begins typing in an address field.

When you enable this feature, a surcharge per address selection (by form users) will be billed to your Snapforms account. Surcharges vary depending on the address data provider you choose.

We’re currently offering a free 30-day trial so you can try out Address Search on your forms. Surcharges will apply at the end of the trial period. You can disable this service at any time.

To enable address search:

Tick Address search: Show predictive address choices while typing.
Tick the box if you agree to the Address Search Surcharge (surcharge applies after a free 30-day trial).
Choose a provider: Australian Government (recommended) or Google Places.
Save & Close.
