# Address

Add address fields to your checkout that autocomplete and auto-localize.

![](https://university.spiffy.co/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Screen-Shot-2022-02-18-at-2.14.15-PM.png)Asking for address on a checkout has historically been one of the slower parts of completing a purchase which is why we’ve special built an optimized address block to minimize it’s affect on conversion rate.

Here are a few things the address block does for you right out of the box:

- Autocomplete the customer’s address as they type using Google Maps
- Detect a customer’s location and move their country to the top dynamically
- Localize labels based on the customer’s country
- Show a state or province dropdown when available
- Optimize the order of the fields with a modified layout

- [Exclude Countries](#exclude-countries)

## Add an address block

To add an address, while editing a checkout click **Add Section** (or Add Block) in the editor canvas and select **Address**. This will open the **Settings panel** for your new address block. Then just choose a **Field** where you want to save this address—billing and shipping address fields exist by default.

## Edit field labels

In the address block **Settings panel** you can change all the field labels and placeholders.

In the address block **Settings panel** you can enable collecting a second address. This will enable a second set of address fields that can be auto-filled with the first address or changed by the customer—the typical “Is billing same as shipping?” feature.

## Exclude Countries

In the **Address** settings sidebar, open the **Country Field** section. From there, select any countries you don’t want to include from the **Excluded Countries** drop-down list.
