> Email verification that checks catch-all addresses

Checked Nov 13, 2026 · graded Nov 13, 2026 by ToolGPA.

BounceBan is an email verification service that says it can tell deliverable addresses from undeliverable ones even when the domain is catch-all or sits behind a secure email gateway. It offers single, bulk and API checks, plus a Sync feature that re-checks CRM contacts daily. Single checks in free mode cost no credits.

## Key features

- **Catch-all verification:** Uses its own methods to judge which catch-all, greylisted or gateway-protected addresses are deliverable, without sending a message.
- **Free single checks:** Single email verification in Free Mode is free and unlimited, so results can be tried before buying credits.
- **Bulk verification:** Upload a list to verify it in one pass. One credit is used for each successful verification through Single, Bulk or API.
- **CRM Sync:** Re-checks the emails in a connected CRM such as HubSpot every day and can unsubscribe or remove bad contacts. Sold as a separate subscription.
- **API and integrations:** An API plus listed connections for Google Sheets, Clay, n8n, ChatGPT GPTs and a Claude Code plugin.
- **Delivery guarantee:** States a guaranteed delivery rate of up to 99% for addresses it marks deliverable, with an estimate when results are exported.

## Good for

- Outbound teams whose lists contain many catch-all domains
- Occasional users who can rely on free single checks
- Teams re-checking CRM contacts on a schedule

## Worth knowing

- Only two entry packages are shown here; larger volumes are priced per credit by tier.
- Packages above 1M credits need a custom quote.
- No desktop or mobile apps are listed; use is through the web dashboard and API.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.4 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. BounceBan verifies email addresses, including catch-all ones, with unlimited free single checks. Bulk work costs from $0.004 a credit, and its CRM sync is a separate subscription whose prices we couldn't read.

- **Free plan and trial: B.** Unlimited single verifications in Free Mode at no credit cost, which one person checking addresses could live on. Bulk checks need credits.
- **Features: C.** Catch-all checks, bulk verification, an API and a delivery guarantee. But CRM Sync is a separate subscription.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You upload lists or use the API.
- **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web dashboard and API with HubSpot, Google Sheets, Clay, n8n and ChatGPT links. No apps.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace BounceBan you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $408 a year.

- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: Checking that an address exists without writing to it.
