Best for list cleaning with credits that never expire
Bouncer checks a list and tells you which addresses are safe to send to, and its credits never expire, so it suits people who clean a list a few times a year. 10,000 checks cost $60, middle of the road for list cleaners. It won't warm up an inbox or manage DMARC, though a separate kit tests where your mail lands.
Who Bouncer is for
- Great if you clean a list a few times a year and don't want a subscription
- Handy when you want placement and blocklist tests from the same company
- Good for companies that want their data processed and hosted in the EU
Who Bouncer is not for
- Skip it if you need a new inbox warmed up, as Bouncer doesn't do that
- Pricey if you also want the Deliverability Kit, sold apart from $25 a month
Why Bouncer gets a 2.4
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for money10,000 checks cost $60 as a one-off pack, and the credits never expire. Against the list cleaners it's listed beside that's mid-pack: MillionVerifier is $39 and NeverBounce $50, Emailable is also $60, Kickbox $70 and ZeroBounce about $129.
- CFree plan and trialNo free plan, but 100 free credits to start with no card. Enough to test a sample of your list, not to clean the whole thing.
- CFeaturesIt cleans lists fully: deliverable, risky or undeliverable with reasons, a deeper catch-all check, a toxicity score and form checks. The Deliverability Kit tests placement and blocklists, but there's no warm-up or DMARC management, and the kit is sold apart.
- BEase of useNo App Store rating on record, but there's nothing to set up: upload a CSV and download it sorted, or connect Mailchimp, HubSpot or Klaviyo and check the list where it lives.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb, an API and an MCP server, plus Mailchimp, HubSpot, Klaviyo, Brevo, Pipedrive, lemlist, Make and MailerLite. No phone or desktop app.

What this rests on. Bouncer’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
What is Bouncer?
Bouncer cleans email lists: it checks each address and marks it deliverable, risky or undeliverable, through a web app, an API or a connection to an email platform. It does not warm up inboxes or manage DMARC, but a separate Deliverability Kit runs inbox placement and blocklist tests. Verification is bought as credits that never expire, from $8 for 1,000.
Bouncer is a paid product with a free trial, starting at $8 one-time for 1,000 verification credits. See every plan
Good for
- 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
Worth knowing
- 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.
