Delivery validation: Advanced postal code match
Kurvi Kansagra
Last Update 7 months ago
This functionality is intended for regions where postal codes contain spaces and variable digit formats. For Example: N1_ will correctly validate N1 0AA, while excluding N1C 4BH.
You can also apply this feature to your location if you require more precise control over postal code validation in our widget.
