Collecting supporter addresses on GivePanel forms

Learn about the different ways to collect supporter addresses on GivePanel forms and choose the option that best suits your supporters.

Written by Harry Gardner

GivePanel offers three ways to collect supporter addresses on your forms:

  • Manual entry: Supporters enter their address details themselves.

  • Google Auto Address Complete: Supporters start typing their address and select a matching result. This can be used for UK and international addresses.

  • Postcode Lookup: Supporters enter their postcode and select their address from a list. This currently supports UK addresses only.

Which option should I use?

Google Auto Address Complete is best if your form may be completed by supporters from different countries.
​

Postcode Lookup is best if you're primarily collecting UK addresses and want supporters to find their address using their postcode.
​

Manual entry is best if you want supporters to enter their address details themselves.
​

Please note: Google Auto Address Complete and Postcode Lookup are optional features and availability may depend on your GivePanel account. Postcode Lookup is currently available on GivePanel forms but is not yet available on GivePanel Events forms.
