Frequently Asked Questions
Can I upgrade or downgrade anytime?
Yes! Upgrades take effect immediately with prorated billing. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing cycle. You can manage your subscription anytime from your dashboard.
What happens if I exceed my limit?
On the Free plan, you can purchase credits to continue verifying emails, or the API will return a 403 error. On paid plans (Starter, Pro, Scale), you'll automatically be billed for overage usage at the end of each billing cycle - $0.002/email for Starter/Pro and $0.001/email for Scale.
Do unused verifications roll over?
No, verification limits reset at the beginning of each billing cycle. However, credits never expire and carry over indefinitely.
Is there a refund policy?
We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee on all paid plans. Credit purchases are non-refundable but never expire.
What's the difference between monthly and annual billing?
Annual billing gives you 2 months free (pay for 10 months, get 12). You can switch between billing periods at any time.
What are credits and how do they work?
Credits are a pay-as-you-go option for users who don't need a subscription. 1 credit = 1 email verification. Credits never expire and are used after your free monthly limit is exhausted. They're ideal for occasional users or one-time list cleaning projects.
Should I use credits or a subscription?
Subscriptions offer the best value for consistent, high-volume usage (as low as $0.00079/email on Pro). Credits are great for sporadic usage, one-time list cleaning, or testing - no commitment and competitive pricing ($0.001-$0.00333/email depending on pack size).
What's the difference between basic and full disposable detection?
Basic detection (Free plan) catches common disposable email providers. Full detection (paid plans) includes our extended database of 10,000+ providers, pattern matching for dynamic domains, and detects newer services that basic detection may miss. For production use, we recommend a paid plan for comprehensive protection.
