I worked for trintech in 2000-2001, they write software for gateways and
banks.  They directly connected to visa, mastercard, amex, etc.  They
wrote software to provide a variety of services, including software
directly for card backers (note visa and mastercard dont actually issue
any cards, its underlying banks that do, but they were some of our
customers).

I do know that the majority of checks on address that are done are the
numeric portion of the street address and zip code only.  So 123 main
street postal code 12345 matches 123 spring street in the same postal
code.  But the requirements that were passed to us from the major cards
were to do name checks as well.
