General questions:
Welcome to BounceShield's FAQ section. Here you'll find answers to commonly asked questions about our email verification service. BounceShield helps businesses maintain clean email lists by validating email addresses in real-time, reducing bounce rates, and protecting your sender reputation.
BounceShield is an email verification service that validates email addresses to ensure they are active and deliverable. It works by performing multiple checks including syntax validation, domain verification, mailbox existence verification, and spam trap detection, all without sending actual emails to the addresses.
BounceShield provides up to 99% accuracy in email verification through our multi-layer verification process. We use real-time SMTP connections, domain validation, and proprietary algorithms to ensure the highest possible accuracy while following email server best practices and privacy guidelines.
Yes! BounceShield offers both single email verification and bulk list verification. You can upload your entire email list in CSV, TXT, or Excel format, and our system will process them efficiently while providing detailed results for each email address.
Single email verification happens in real-time, typically taking 1-3 seconds. For bulk lists, verification speed depends on the list size, but we can process approximately 100,000 emails per hour while maintaining high accuracy. Our system also includes automatic retry mechanisms for temporary failures.
Absolutely. BounceShield takes data security seriously. We use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS) to protect your data during transmission, and we never store or share your email lists. We are GDPR compliant and follow strict privacy policies to ensure your data remains confidential and secure.
Credits usage:
Understanding BounceShield Credits is straightforward. Each account receives 100 free credits monthly, and one credit is used per email verification. These credits roll over and never expire, giving you flexibility in managing your verification needs. Whether you're verifying a single email or processing a large list, you can easily track your credit usage and purchase additional credits as needed.
Each email verification costs exactly 1 credit. For example, if you need to verify a list of 500 emails, you'll need 500 credits.
Your credits never expire. Any unused credits, will roll over to the next month and remain in your account until you use them. This means you can accumulate credits for larger verification projects.
