Frequently Asked Questions

No verification system can guarantee 100% deliverability. While verification significantly reduces bounces by removing invalid addresses, other factors like content quality, sender reputation, and recipient server settings also affect deliverability. A good verification service typically achieves 97-99% accuracy.

Yes, email verification is generally compliant with privacy regulations including GDPR. In fact, GDPR requires data accuracy, and verification helps ensure your data is correct. However, ensure your verification provider doesn't store email addresses or use them for purposes other than verification.

Email validation typically refers to basic format checking (syntax validation), while verification involves the complete process including checking if the mailbox actually exists on the server. Verification is more thorough and provides greater accuracy in determining if an email is deliverable.

Costs vary widely based on list size and service provider. Many services offer tiered pricing based on volume, typically ranging from $0.003 to $0.01 per email verified. Most providers offer free trials or small free monthly quotas, making it accessible to test before committing to larger volumes.

Actually, the target email address does not receive an actual email during verification. Email verification services do not send emails. They make different checks as a human would, using safe server-level checks and algorithms to confirm the validity (the format and domain) as well as that a mailbox exists. All of this means you have improved list hygiene but are also avoiding spam complaints, protecting your senders reputation, and ensuring compliance with privacy laws such as CAN-SPAM and GDPR.

Email verification improves deliverability by removing invalid, misspelled, or inactive email addresses from your mailing list. Sending only to valid recipients reduces bounce rates, increases engagement metrics, and protects your sender reputation, leading to better inbox placement for future campaigns.

Yes, many email verification services identify role-based addresses such as info@, support@, or sales@. These addresses often have lower engagement rates, and removing or flagging them helps maintain a clean list and improves overall campaign performance.

Email verification should be performed regularly, as email lists naturally degrade over time due to inactive users, typos, and unsubscribes. Regular verification, such as monthly or quarterly, helps maintain high deliverability, engagement, and ROI from your email campaigns.

No, email verification does not violate GDPR or other privacy regulations. It ensures that personal data is accurate and up-to-date, which aligns with GDPR principles. However, always ensure your verification provider does not store or misuse the email addresses for purposes beyond verification.

We support all standard email formats according to RFC conventions, including classical formats like username@domain.com. Our verification focuses on syntax correctness, valid domain structure, and general deliverability rules.

We do not accept unusual or non-standard formats that deviate from these widely recognized standards, ensuring reliable email verification results.
