AutoPostcode vs Craftyclicks

Craftyclicks is a well-known UK address autocomplete provider sold largely through ecommerce platforms. If you are benchmarking providers, the decision usually comes down to three things: the effective cost per lookup, how quickly you can integrate, and who picks up the phone when something breaks.

Cost per lookup

Craftyclicks publishes bundle pricing that typically lands between 3p and 6p per lookup depending on bundle size. AutoPostcode publishes its rates openly — from about 3.8p per lookup on the entry plan down to roughly 2.2p on higher-volume annual plans — so you can do the maths before you speak to anyone.

Where Craftyclicks is strong

• Credit bundles that expire
• Pricing quoted per integration
• Platform-first, API second

Where AutoPostcode wins

• Monthly plans plus rollover-friendly credit packs
• One published price list for every channel
• API-first with a free WordPress/WooCommerce plugin

Switching in about 15 minutes

Most migrations are a single endpoint swap. Point your autocomplete at our search endpoint, pass your API key, and render the results you already render:

const res = await fetch(
  `https://autopostcode.com/api/public/autocomplete?q=${query}`,
  { headers: { "x-api-key": AUTOPOSTCODE_KEY } }
);
const { results } = await res.json();

Prefer no code? Install the free WordPress plugin, paste your key and address autocomplete is live on checkout. Full instructions are in the developer documentation.

The honest summary

Craftyclicks is a credible provider and plenty of UK businesses run on it happily. If what you want is published pricing, a UK team that answers quickly, a plugin that does the work for you and a guarantee that you are not overpaying, AutoPostcode is built for exactly that.
