Order volume estimated from publicly available e-commerce revenue data. 5% address error rate is the industry benchmark (1 in 20 orders). Carrier correction fees are published rates. Reshipment and support costs use industry averages. Your actual exposure may differ. REPRESENT | UK ships internationally, which typically increases error rates by ~20%.
That's equivalent to 20,023 free orders you could fulfill instead — or 85 hours of logistics team time per month spent resolving address issues.
International addresses have 20% higher error rates than domestic.
