How each one bills you
Emailable charges $32.30 a month for 5,000 credits, or pay as you go from $7.60 per 1,000 on a 5,000 pack, falling to $2.10 at 1,000,000, metered as credits that never expire; subscription credits roll over. DeBounce charges $13.80 a month for 5,000 credits, or pay as you go from $3.00 per 1,000 on a 5,000 pack, falling to $0.44 at 5,000,000, metered as pay per email, or the same volumes monthly; pay-as-you-go credits never expire.
Emailable says its pay-as-you-go credits never expire. DeBounce says its pay-as-you-go credits never expire. For uneven volume, expiry often matters more than the headline price, because credits that lapse raise the real cost of every address you did verify.
What to watch with Emailable: it is priced per credit, so the bill scales with the list: 100,000 a month is $357 even with the subscription discount, and every re-check is billed again. With DeBounce: every option is metered by the credit, so every pass over the list is billed again — the cost scales with how often you clean, not just how much.
Both meter verifications, so checking the same list again costs again. Before committing to either, verify an address you invented at a real domain and an address at a catch-all domain on both. The first should come back invalid and the second as risky or accept-all, not valid.
Choose Emailable if
you want a subscription whose unused credits roll into the next period.
Disclosure — our product
Where SimpleVerifier fits, and where it does not
We publish this comparison and we sell a third option, so treat the rest of this section as the pitch it is. SimpleVerifier is a flat monthly price with unlimited email verifications and API access included, so there are no credits to buy or expire:
Pro $29.99/mo
Unlimited email verification, finder and phone format checks.
Email + Phone $49.99/mo
Everything in Pro, plus live carrier lookups for your phone lists.
That is worth it in two cases: large lists, because volume does not change the price, and lists you verify repeatedly, because a confirmed result is cached for 14 days so the second pass costs nothing. Outside those two cases, a metered vendor is usually cheaper and you should use one, Emailable and DeBounce included.
