EmailListVerify lists no pack above 100,000, so we show no price there rather than guess. ZeroBounce lists one-off packs up to 10,000,000 credits; over 1,000,000 on subscription is "contact us".

Expiry, free allowance and extras

EmailListVerify ZeroBounce
Free allowance 100 free verifications on registration 100 validations a month on its Freemium plan
Credit expiry Pay-as-you-go credits do not expire Expiry rules may apply to pay-as-you-go; credits never expire while a ONE subscription is active

The free allowance and extras rows come from our vendor notes (19 Oct 2026) and were not checked today. We do not rank either on accuracy; a pricing page cannot show that.

Who each is better for

EmailListVerify if your volume is steady and modest. $16 a month for 5,000 and $25 for 10,000 are both under SimpleVerifier's $39, and pay-as-you-go starts at $5 for 1,000.

ZeroBounce if you want inbox placement testing, blacklist monitoring and warmup next to verification in one account, and are happy to pay for the suite. Its unknown-result rule also means you are not billed for results that tell you nothing.

A third option: SimpleVerifier

SimpleVerifier Pro is $39 a month. The first 100,000 checks a month run at full speed, then slower, never cut off. Results are valid, risky or invalid, and catch-all addresses are graded by likelihood rather than counted as valid.

Honest limits:

  • At 10,000 a month or fewer, EmailListVerify is cheaper ($25 at 10,000, $16 at 5,000).
  • A one-off clean can cost less than a month of Pro at small sizes, and 1,000,000 checks one-off at ZeroBounce was $3,199 at full speed.
  • Pro wins when you verify 25,000 or more every month: EmailListVerify's 25,000 plan was $49 and its 100,000 plan $168, against $39 flat.
