Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about <\/span>Snov.io Email Verifier<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can I use email verification for free?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Yes, you can try email verification for free on your Trial account<\/a>. Snov.io provides <\/span>50 test credits<\/b>, which you can use for email verification and <\/span>other credit-based tools<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How much does email verification cost?<\/b><\/h3>\n

The number of emails you can verify depends on the <\/span>credits included in your plan<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Verification has a simple and predictable pricing: <\/span>1 email checked = 1 credit<\/b>. This makes your costs easy to estimate in advance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Larger plans in Snov.io reduce the cost per verification, so you get better value at higher volumes.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, on the <\/span>Pro S plan<\/b> one verification <\/span>costs 2 cents<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How accurate are the email verification results? Can a valid email still bounce?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Yes, but the risk is low. According to our statistics, emails marked as valid by Snov.io have an average <\/span>bounce rate of around 2%<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you confirm the email is valid? Do you send an email?<\/b><\/h3>\n

We run multiple technical checks to check the mailbox is existing and can receive emails.<\/span><\/p>\n

These checks include domain MX record validation, SMTP server check, catch-all detection, and greylisting bypassing for improved accuracy.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does an unverifiable email mean?<\/b><\/h3>\n

These emails went through verification, but their status couldn\u2019t be confirmed with full certainty. This usually happens with catch-all domains, or when an address seems valid but doesn\u2019t pass all checks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yellow emails can still be used in outreach and may successfully receive emails, unlike invalid ones.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since they carry more deliverability risk, we recommend keeping the share of unverifiable emails in your list <\/span>5% or lower<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to check list health<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

How do I check the quality of my list before outreach?<\/b><\/h3>\n

If you import contacts from other sources, we recommend verifying those emails before using them in outreach.<\/span><\/p>\n

Upload your list for verification<\/span> and review the verification statuses. A healthy list has a high share of valid emails. For every 100 prospects, no more than 5 should have yellow emails.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this range, you may still get a few bounces, but it\u2019s safe to launch a campaign. Invalid emails are blocked from campaigns automatically, so you don\u2019t need to account for them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can I verify a large email database?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Yes. With <\/span>Bulk Email Verifier<\/span><\/a>, you can upload your own email lists and verify them in one go. It supports <\/span>CSV, XLS, XLSX, and TXT<\/b> files and can verify <\/span>up to 100,000 emails per search<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you have an email verifier API?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Yes. Snov.io offers an <\/span>Email Verifier API<\/span><\/a> for direct integration into your automated workflows.<\/span><\/p>\n

How can I add Snov.io verification to my existing workflow in other tools?<\/b><\/h3>\n

You can add Snov.io verification to your existing workflows in a few ways.<\/span><\/p>\n

In <\/span>Clay<\/b>, you can use Snov.io as a data provider in enrichment workflows, including waterfall enrichment setups. Clay offers native Snov.io actions for finding and enriching contact data.<\/span><\/p>\n

In automation platforms like <\/span>n8n<\/b>, you can use the <\/span>Snov.io API<\/b> to automate email verification and connect it with your other steps, such as enrichment, scoring, routing, or CRM updates.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
