The same email verification that you get with RocketReach contacts is now available to verify email addresses that you have sourced outside of RocketReach.
Every month, about 3% of your contact database becomes outdated. Routine maintenance such as verifying email addresses helps you maintain a high delivery rate and avoid spam blocking.
RocketReach Verify makes it easy and affordable to check one email address or thousands. Plus our proprietary systems provide high accuracy, with more clarity and fewer "catchall" results compared to other providers.

How to Use RocketReach Verify
You can use RocketReach Verify two ways:
-
Single Email Lookup: Enter one email address at a time for instant verification.
-
Bulk Verification: Upload a CSV file to verify multiple email addresses in bulk.
Pro Tips:
- With Single Email verification, the results will be shown to you on the page; the results are not saved if you navigate away or do verify another email.
- If uploading a CSV, your file must contain at least one column titled "Email," or the file will not upload.
-
You can include as many other columns as you'd like, but your downloaded results will only contain the email address and its verification results without any columns or information from the original file.
Understanding the Results
The finished verification will return one of the following statuses:
-
Valid – Verified and active. It’s safe to send emails to this address.
-
Catchall – The domain accepts all emails, proceed with caution.
-
Invalid – This email is not deliverable and will likely bounce.
-
Unknown – We couldn’t determine the status of this email address.
Note: You will be charged 1 credit per email address, except if the result is Unknown (no credit charged).

RocketReach Verify FAQ
❓How long does verification take?
Single Email verification is often instant if we're able to use a recent verification result. If necessary to process a fresh, real-time verification, the wait time may be a minute or longer to give you the best result. Wait times are proportional to quality and accuracy, so we thank you for your patience and understanding.
❓Is RocketReach Verify available via API?
Verification is not yet available through API, but it's coming soon!
❓How is RocketReach Verify different than using RocketReach?
This is a smart question with an important answer! RocketReach Verify is a email verification service only. When you use RocketReach to access contacts, we've run multiple data processing techniques, one of which is email verification by RocketReach Verify; the contact data that you receive from RocketReach is much fuller and more robust than simply checking if a given email address is valid or invalid.
Consider this:
- Use RocketReach Verify if you just want to check whether an email address you already have is valid to use.
- Use RocketReach to discover full contact details like alternate contact info, employer info, job title, etc.
