What each one charges for
| Verifier | Results not charged | Credit expiry |
|---|---|---|
| Prime Verifier | Catch-all, unknown and error. | Never. |
| ZeroBounce | Unknown results and removed duplicates are not charged. Catch-all is not on that list, so it uses a credit. | Never expire with a ZeroBounce ONE subscription; without one, its pricing page says expiration rules may apply. |
| NeverBounce | Its pricing page does not say which results are free of charge. | Pay-as-you-go credits expire 12 months after purchase. |
| MillionVerifier | Offers a full refund on any email it cannot verify with certainty (its "risky email refund"). | Credits never expire. |
| Kickbox | Unknown results are free: its pricing page says it refunds the credit when it cannot give a definitive result. It does not list catch-all results as free. | Its pricing page does not say whether credits expire. |
| Clearout | Unknown results and duplicates within the same uploaded list are free. Its pricing guide says valid, invalid and catch-all results each use a credit. | Purchased credits never expire; its pricing guide says credits bought at a discount may carry an expiry date. |
| Verifalia | Its pricing page does not say which results are free. It says one credit is one Standard-level check, and that its High and Extreme levels use more credits per address. | Credit packs never expire. The free daily credits on its plans expire at the end of each day. |
| Bouncer | Duplicates within your list and unknown results are free, per its pricing page. It does not list catch-all results as free. | Credits bought on demand never expire. |
How to read this
The sticker price is only half of it. What you are charged for matters as much: a list with many catch-all addresses costs noticeably less where catch-all results are free, and credits that expire after a year can cost more than a slightly higher price per email if you verify in bursts.
MillionVerifier is cheaper than us for very large lists; we say so on that comparison. The fairest test is still your own: verify the same sample with two services and compare the answers and the bill.
