# Burner Mail review (2026): is it worth it? > Burner email addresses that forward to your real inbox Checked Nov 13, 2026 ยท graded Nov 13, 2026 by ToolGPA. Burner Mail creates a separate forwarding address for each site you sign up to, so your real address stays hidden. A browser extension fills the addresses into sign-up forms, and you can block, disable or delete any one of them. It also supports replying from a burner address and custom domains. - **Category:** Email Apps - **Made by:** Burner Mail - **Website:** https://burnermail.io - **Runs on:** Web, Browser extension - **Who should skip it:** Skip it if you want to try it free, as new users must pay before creating burners. - **Facts last checked:** Nov 13, 2026 ## Pricing Burner Mail's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site. ## Key features - **One-click burner addresses:** The Chrome and Firefox extension adds an icon to email fields and generates a new address for that site. - **Block, disable or delete:** Any burner can be turned off or deleted from the web app or the extension if a sender turns abusive or sells your address. - **Replies from a burner address:** Replies pass through the vendor's servers so the recipient sees the burner address, not your personal one. - **Spam quarantine:** Suspected spam is held for review and deleted after 14 days if you do not release it; the FAQ says quarantine is on every plan. - **Multiple recipients and custom domains:** A burner can forward to several inboxes, and burners can be recreated on verified private domains. ## Good for - People who want to stop giving their real address to every sign-up form - Users who want to find out which company leaked or sold their address ## Worth knowing - Pricing is not shown on the public site; plans are chosen after creating an account, so no price is recorded here. - The vendor removed its public free plan, so new users must pay before creating burners, while existing free accounts keep their current limits. - The source code is private, and the vendor says it does not recommend sending sensitive data such as passwords or card numbers through the service. - Payments are handled by an online reseller and merchant of record under its own terms. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 1.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026.

What surrounds it you could not. The 1 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 121 of the 122 other email apps grade higher. - You could make: Ad and tracker blocking: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: Filters that read every message as it arrives.
