How much are invalid emails costing you?

Many companies forget that behind every invalid email there is wasted time and money.

Sales reps following up with contacts that will never respond, campaigns sent to addresses that don’t exist, and reports inflated with useless data. Validating your emails before outreach is more than just a technical step: it’s a way to protect your resources, optimize your sales team’s efforts, and increase real conversion opportunities.

What is an email checker?

An email checker (or email validator / email address checker) confirms whether an address is valid, active, and safe to send to. It acts as a security and quality gate for your database, ensuring you connect only with real email users and maximize email marketing performance. By filtering out invalid, disposable, risky, or mistyped addresses, you:

  • Lower hard and soft bounces
  • Protect and strengthen domain sender reputation
  • Increase opens, clicks, and conversions
  • Improve inbox placement and sender reputation
  • Save budget (send only to contacts who can actually receive)

What is a valid email address?

A valid email address is an active, working account that can reliably receive messages and is not linked to temporary or disposable domains. It is the foundation of every successful campaign, since sending to real users protects your domain reputation and ensures better inbox placement. By using an email verifier you confirm email validity before sending, reducing bounce rates, increasing engagement, and improving ROI for your email marketing.

Now that you know what a valid email address is, would you like to learn about the main types of emails that can harm your reputation? Click to explore: Spamtraps, fake emails, bounces, and temporary emails.
