What is my zip code?
Find your zip code from your device location, only after you allow it. Coordinates go only to a public geocoding lookup, never to us.
Your browser will ask before sharing anything. Nothing is uploaded.
Your zip code can be shown above once you allow location access. We take the precise coordinates your browser provides (only after you press the button and accept the prompt) and look them up with a public reverse-geocoding service, OpenStreetMap Nominatim, to find the postal code for that spot. We never see or store your coordinates ourselves.
A zip code, or postal code outside the United States, is a short code that groups nearby addresses for mail sorting and, increasingly, for online forms, delivery estimates, tax and shipping. It is a coarser locator than a full address, which is why it feels less invasive to share.
If you would rather not enable location, you can always find your zip code on a recent piece of mail, in your account settings on delivery sites, or by searching your street on a maps service. This page just makes it instant when you consent.
What you should know
Why sites collect it
Sites ask for a zip code to estimate shipping and delivery times, calculate tax, check service or store availability, and show local results. It is precise enough to be useful and coarse enough that people share it readily.
Privacy implications
A zip code narrows you to a neighbourhood, which is more revealing than a country but far less than a street address. Because this page reads your coordinates only after consent and sends them only to a public geocoding service (never to us), you control whether it is read at all.
How to change or hide it
Deny the location prompt to skip this entirely, or revoke access later in your browser settings. When you do share it with other sites, remember a zip code alone plus a birth date and gender can be surprisingly identifying, so give it only where it is genuinely needed.
Frequently asked questions
How do you find my zip code?
With your permission, your browser provides coordinates, which go to a public reverse-geocoding service (OpenStreetMap Nominatim) to look up the postal code. We never see or store them. Deny permission and nothing is read.
Can I find my zip code without sharing location?
Yes. Check recent mail, your saved addresses on shopping sites, or search your street on a map. This page is just the fastest option when you consent.
