Who each one suits
Bouncer
- Marketers who clean a list now and then and do not want a subscription
- Teams that also want to test inbox placement and watch blocklists
- Companies that want their data processed and hosted in the EU
Clearout
- Teams that want verification and an email finder on one balance
- WordPress sites checking sign-ups on popular form plugins
- HubSpot users who want new contacts checked automatically
Worth knowing
Bouncer
- Credits can also be bought as a monthly subscription that refills each month; the page shows its price only inside the calculator.
- Bouncer Shield, for form checks, is a separate monthly subscription priced by the number of checks.
- The Deliverability Kit is sold separately from verification credits.
- Bouncer does not warm up inboxes or manage DMARC records; the kit only tests them.
Clearout
- The free 100 credits are a one-time grant, not a monthly allowance.
- Monthly billing saves 10% on the one-time price, against 20% for annual; only the annual prices show by default.
- Finding an email costs 4 credits (2 for role addresses) and form checks 2 credits per field, so non-verification work uses credits faster.
- Clearout verifies and finds addresses; it has no warm-up, inbox placement or DMARC tools.
