Australian address autocomplete that never leaves Australia.
Add fast, accurate address type-ahead, verification and geocoding to any form — built on open G-NAF data and hosted entirely on Australian soil. No customer keystrokes sent to Google.
One API for real Australian addresses
Every current, geocoded address in the country — served as clean, structured data your forms can trust.
Address autocomplete
Type-ahead suggestions after a few characters, ranked and formatted. Drop-in browser widget or call the API from your backend.
checkout · sign-up · CRMVerify & standardise

clean data inGeocode
Get latitude and longitude for any matched address — ready for maps, routing, catchments and service areas.
lat / lngThe sovereign choice for address data
Google Places is fast — but every keystroke your customers type leaves the country. For regulated, government and privacy-conscious teams, that’s a dealbreaker. WattleAddr is the alternative.
Data sovereignty
Every request is served from Australian infrastructure. Nothing is processed, cached or routed offshore — ever. Built for teams with data-residency obligations.
Privacy by default
Your end-users’ addresses never touch a third-party ad platform. You control how long search logs are kept — or store queries hashed.
Honest, open-data pricing
We build on the free, open national address file — so you get fair per-lookup pricing, a real free tier, and no per-seat surprises.
One Australian vendor
From the makers of WattleDB. One sovereignty posture, one invoice, one support team that answers in your timezone.
From nothing to live in minutes
Create a workspace
Sign up and grab a publishable key for the browser and a secret key for your backend.
Lock it to your domain
Publishable keys only work on the domains you allow, and are rate-limited per referrer.
Drop in the widget
Attach the autocomplete to any input, or call the REST API directly. One session = one billable lookup.
const wa = new WattleAddr('waddr_pk_live_…');
wa.attach('#shipping-address', {
state: 'NSW',
onSelect: (addr) => {
console.log(addr.formatted);
// "1 Martin Place, Sydney NSW 2000"
},
});
Addresses that exist — not mail deliverability
WattleAddr tells you an address is real, standardised and where it is. It is not a postal deliverability or mail-house service (that’s Australia Post’s AMAS/PAF). We’re upfront about scope so you buy the right tool.
