  "notes": "(read 2026-11-13 on addresshero.com/pricing, US dollars) AddressHero sells three plans for Shopify stores, each with a 14-day free trial. Lite costs $9.99 a month flat and is described as minimal, for early-stage stores. Pro costs $0.04 per validated order and is for stores that optimise profit at scale. Enterprise has no listed price, is billed per address and is aimed at stores with 50,000 or more orders a month; the page offers a demo instead. The terms say prices are net of applicable taxes, all charges are billed in USD, and recurring and usage-based charges are billed every 30 days. Per the vendor's docs, read 15 October 2026, Lite does not validate against address databases and does not correct automatically, while Pro adds post-checkout validation, automatic correction, customer prompts on the Thank You and Order Status pages, order tagging, on-hold workflows, customer emails and a Klaviyo integration. The pricing page lists the correction features in a shared feature list without saying which plan has which, so we follow the docs. Pro bills every validated order, whether the address was right or wrong; orders without a shipping address are not validated or billed. The docs say a self-configurable spending stop below the default limit does not exist today. We did not install the app, so we do not know the real cost for a store of your size.",
