Bouncer vs Bouncify (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Bouncer if

• Fits if you clean a list a few times a year and don't want a subscription
• Works for companies that want their data processed and hosted in the EU

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need a new inbox warmed up or DMARC managed, as Bouncer does neither
• Pricey if you also want placement and blocklist tests, as the Deliverability Kit is sold apart from $25 a month
• Watch out: Bouncer Shield for sign-up forms is another monthly subscription, priced by the number of checks
• Tight if you want to test first, as the 100 free credits cover a sample, not a whole list
• Watch out: the monthly credit subscription shows its price only inside the calculator

Pick Bouncify if

• Fits if you clean a list now and then and want credits that last
• Works for teams wiring email checks into a signup form

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: the 100 free credits are a one-time grant, not a free plan
• Watch out: monthly plan credits reset each month
• Skip it if you want apps, as everything runs in the web dashboard or API
• Watch out: prices are shown by region, and packs over 2 million credits go through sales

• The page lists no mobile or desktop apps; everything runs in the web dashboard or API.

Bouncer

List verification

Upload a CSV and get each address back as deliverable, risky, undeliverable or unknown, with reasons. Catch-all domains get a deeper check.

Verification API

Synchronous and batch endpoints verify addresses from your own app, and an MCP server connects Bouncer to ChatGPT, Claude and other AI tools.

Toxicity Check

Scores each address from 0 to 5 for risks such as breached or widely shared addresses, known complainers and likely spam traps.

Bouncer Shield

Checks addresses as they are typed into sign-up forms and can block invalid, malicious or fraudulent entries by address or IP.

Deliverability Kit

Sends test emails to see whether they land in the inbox or spam, checks SPF, DKIM and DMARC, and monitors IPs and domains on blocklists.

AutoClean and integrations

Connects to email and CRM tools such as Mailchimp, HubSpot and Klaviyo to verify lists where they live, and AutoClean verifies a connected CRM without manual uploads.

Bouncify

Bulk list verification

Upload a CSV or XLS file or paste addresses, with free list quality analysis and duplicate removal before credits are used.

Real-time API

A REST API checks single addresses live, and credits are shared between API calls and dashboard uploads.

Platform integrations

The integrations page lists over 35 apps, including ActiveCampaign, AWeber, Constant Contact, Drip, GetResponse and Google Sheets.

Catch-all and disposable detection

Lists validation checks that include syntax, MX records, SMTP mailbox checks, catch-all and disposable address detection.

Data retention limit

States that uploaded lists are purged automatically within 30 days of verification and can be deleted earlier.
