If you entered an address on USPS Zip Code Lookup, and the USPS showed it exists, but our system rejected it, the address you entered is most likely missing some information that caused it to fail the Delivery Point Validation (DPV) test.
The DPV test determines if there is an actual mailbox (delivery point) that the mail carrier can deliver to, and the DPV code must equal Y to qualify for free shipping. You can find the DPV code on the USPS Zip Code Lookup by clicking the down arrow to the right of each displayed address.
To check if an address is compliant for free shipping, enter the address into the Address Verification Tool and review the results that are displayed. You won’t need to sign in or register to use this free tool. If the tool shows the address is verified and we rejected it, the issue is generally that the address is new construction. We update our data monthly, so there might be a slight lag.
If you’re positive that the address you entered is correct, notify us at [email protected]. Please provide your name, your organization’s name, your order number, the full name and address you tried to enter, and the personalized greeting you would like on the gift card. We will research the address and respond to you with a solution.
