Enabling the Google Address Autocomplete

CartFlows now includes a powerful new feature: Google Address Autocomplete for billing and shipping fields. This enhancement streamlines the checkout experience by allowing users to quickly search and select their address, which then auto-fills the relevant fields.

This feature leverages Google’s Places API to provide accurate address suggestions based on user input. It reduces manual typing and improves checkout speed, especially on mobile devices.

Note: Some address components may be missing in certain suggestions, depending on what data is returned by Google. This is a known limitation of the API. Here is an actual demonstration from Google.


What Is Google Address Autocomplete?

Google Address Autocomplete is a service provided by Google’s Places API. It predicts and suggests address entries as users begin typing, using real-time location data.

In CartFlows, we’ve integrated this API to auto-fill billing and shipping fields with just a single selection—making your checkout process faster and more convenient.

Step 2: Add the API Key to CartFlows

  1. Navigate to CartFlows → Settings → Integrations.

  2. Click the Settings icon (gear icon).
