Can Vouchley replace ZeroBounce for email list cleaning?

For the validation step, yes — Vouchley's bulk endpoint handles list cleaning. For the broader deliverability suite (inbox placement, DMARC, blacklist monitoring), no. Those are not Vouchley's product.

How does Vouchley's pricing work — subscription or pay-as-you-go?

Vouchley is a simple monthly plan. Your plan adds its credit allotment each billing cycle, unused credits roll over and never expire, and cache hits within 30 days don't cost a credit. Bursty months just draw down your rollover balance instead of hitting a hard cap.

Is ZeroBounce's accuracy better on email-only checks?

ZeroBounce publishes 96–99% accuracy on email validation, in line with the industry. Vouchley's email layer hits the same range. The differences show up on the signals ZeroBounce doesn't have — IP, domain, and behavior — where Vouchley is the only one returning a verdict.

Comparison · Email verification + deliverability suite

Vouchley vs ZeroBounce

ZeroBounce bundles email validation with deliverability tooling (inbox placement, blacklist monitoring, warmup). Vouchley is focused on real-time signup verification and skips the deliverability suite entirely.

ZeroBounce is the email-marketing operator's tool. They sell email validation alongside inbox placement testing, blacklist monitoring, DMARC analysis, and email warmup — a full deliverability suite. Vouchley is the SaaS engineer's tool. We don't ship deliverability features. We ship one API endpoint that returns a real-time trust score for every signup, with IP and behavioral signals layered on top of email checks.

Your team is engineering-led — you want one API, predictable pricing, and no upsell into a deliverability suite.

Pricing, side by side

Vouchley

Vouchley charges $19/month for 15,000 verifications (~$0.00127 each); unused credits roll over and never expire. Each verification includes the full signup score — email + IP + domain.

ZeroBounce

ZeroBounce starts at $20 for 2,000 PAYG validations (~$0.01 each). Subscription tiers begin at $18/month for 2,000 emails and scale up: Starter $49/mo, Team $99/mo, Pro $249/mo. The bundled deliverability suite (ZeroBounce ONE™) starts at $99/mo.

Sample scenario

5,000 real-time signup checks per month

Vouchley: $19/mo on Starter — 15,000 credits covers it with room to spare
ZeroBounce: ~$50 PAYG; $99/mo Team plan if you want predictable pricing

When ZeroBounce is the better pick

If you're running an email marketing program at any meaningful scale, ZeroBounce gives you list validation plus the deliverability tooling around it (inbox placement, blacklist, DMARC) in one subscription. For that buyer, paying for both ZeroBounce and a separate deliverability tool would be silly.

When Vouchley is the better pick

If you don't run an email marketing program — you just need to know which signups are real — most of ZeroBounce's bundle is wasted on you. Vouchley costs less per check, returns more per check (IP + domain + behavioral signals), and integrates as one HTTP call.
