Is ZeroBounce Worth the Price?

In short Ken's view: ZeroBounce is worth it if you want catch-all addresses scored instead of left as a risky label.

Ken's view, from ZeroBounce's public pages. It is worth the price if:

  • You want catch-all addresses scored instead of left as a risky label.
  • You want validation, warmup and inbox placement testing from one vendor.
  • You verify small volumes and a free 100 validations a month covers you.

Limits to weigh against the price:

  • Pay-as-you-go starts at $0.0195 per verification for 2,000 credits and only drops below a cent per verification from 50,000 credits ($499).
  • Scoring a validated address costs a second credit, and Email Finder costs 20 credits per successful query.
