Requirements

  1. Have a Python project that is written for Python 2.7 or Python 3.x.
  2. Realize that you need an address verification component.
  3. Wisely conclude that you don't want to build your own address verification component.
  4. Realize that Smarty has already created an address verification component.
  5. Either have the Requests module installed, or sit comfortably, knowing your friend pip will install this dependency for you.
  6. Congratulations! You are now ready to use the Smarty Python SDK.

How to Get It
