Truelist Pricing Explained (2026): Credits, Plans and Cost per 1,000

··5 min read

Truelist costs $14 as a pack for 10,000 checks and $90 as a pack for 100,000; for 1,000,000 it is $700 as a pack. Truelist is the cheaper choice for one-off cleans up to about 35,000 addresses and its per-1,000 rate keeps falling to $0.70 at a million. At its $1.10 per 1,000 rate, break-even with Pro's $39 sits near 35,000 (our arithmetic). 10,000 is $14 and 25,000 is $27.50. From 50,000 ($55) a month of Pro costs less, and at 100,000 Truelist is $90. This post lists every price we have on file, the cost per 1,000, what happens to unused credits, and how a flat $39 Pro plan compares at each volume.

Figures come from the Truelist pricing page as we last read it on 2 November 2026. We did not re-read the page today, so check it before you buy.

Prices verified 2 November 2026. Per-1,000 figures are price divided by credits, our arithmetic.

Also on the page: Credit prices above 1,000,000 go to sales, and Enterprise starts from $2,000 a month on contract terms. Its Unlimited plan starts at $799 a month on a 12-month commitment billed upfront ($999 a month on 3 months).

Pack or subscription?

Truelist sells credits by volume bracket (up to 10,000 at $1.40 per 1,000, up to 50,000 at $1.10, up to 250,000 at $0.90, up to 1,000,000 at $0.70), and credits never expire. The alternative is the flat Unlimited plan, which only makes sense if you verify millions of addresses a month and can commit to 3 to 12 months.

Credit expiry, free credits and refunds

  • Credit expiry: Truelist says its credits never expire, for bulk lists and the API alike (read 2 November 2026).
  • Free credits: 100 free validations on its Free plan, with no card (as read on 2 November 2026).
  • Refunds: Not checked today.
  • Duplicates, unknown and catch-all results: Standard validation costs 1 credit per email with a definitive verdict; an enhanced check runs only where the standard check returns unknown, at 3 credits per resolved address. Beyond that, billing for unknowns: not checked today.

How a flat $39 Pro plan compares

Pro is $39 a month: the first 100,000 checks a month at full speed, then slower, never cut off. Pro is not priced per credit, so re-checking an overlapping list costs no extra, and confirmed results are cached for 14 days.

Volume Truelist SimpleVerifier Pro Cheaper on price
10,000 a month $14 pack $39 Truelist
25,000 a month $27.50 pack $39 Truelist
50,000 a month $55 pack $39 SimpleVerifier
100,000 a month $90 pack $39 SimpleVerifier
1,000,000 a month $700 pack $39 (first 100,000 at full speed, then slower) SimpleVerifier on price; Pro is slower past 100,000

Past 100,000 a month Pro runs big lists slower rather than charging more or cutting you off, so a million-address list takes longer than on a per-credit vendor that sells you the speed. If time matters more than money at that size, say so before you pick.

When Truelist is the cheaper choice

Truelist is the cheaper choice for one-off cleans up to about 35,000 addresses and its per-1,000 rate keeps falling to $0.70 at a million. At its $1.10 per 1,000 rate, break-even with Pro's $39 sits near 35,000 (our arithmetic). 10,000 is $14 and 25,000 is $27.50. From 50,000 ($55) a month of Pro costs less, and at 100,000 Truelist is $90.

Keep Truelist if your list is heavy on catch-all B2B domains and you want them resolved: its enhanced validation runs only where the standard check returns unknown, at 3 credits per resolved address. SimpleVerifier grades catch-all rows by likelihood but does not resolve them to valid.

When a flat plan is the better choice

  • You verify more than the volumes above every month, or you re-check the same lists. On Truelist, every pass is a fresh credit purchase, and the flat-rate Unlimited plan starts at $799 a month only on a 12-month commitment billed upfront.
  • You want an email finder, an API and a remote MCP server in the same plan as verification.
  • You send from Instantly or Smartlead and want leads tagged in place.

Questions to ask before you buy

  1. What does one check cost in credits? Some vendors charge more than one credit for deeper checks.
  2. Do credits expire, and do plan credits roll over? Packs and subscriptions often differ.
  3. Are duplicates, unknown and catch-all results charged? See what email verifiers charge for.
  4. What does a re-check cost? Every pass is a fresh purchase on per-credit pricing.
  5. What is refundable? Not checked today.
