Plans & billing
Plans
| Free | Premium | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $0 | $29 per 30 days, or $290 per 365 days |
| Checks per month | 2,500 | 100,000 |
| Requests per second | 2 | 20 |
| Features | All | All |
| Payment | None | One-time, through PayPal (PayPal or card) |
Both plans include normalization, disposable detection and deliverability checks. Prices are in US dollars. The pricing page always shows the current prices and limits.
The quota is monthly on both Premium periods: annual Premium gives 100,000 checks per month, not 1.2 million at once. How the quota and the per-second limit work is in Rate limits & usage headers.
One-time payments, no subscription
Premium is bought for a fixed period, 30 days or 365 days, with a single payment. Nothing renews automatically and we never charge you again without your action.
You pay with a PayPal account or with a debit or credit card through PayPal's checkout. We never see or store your card details.
Buying Premium
- On the pricing page, click Get Premium, choose 30 or 365 days and enter your name and email.
- Pay with PayPal or a card.
- Premium starts as soon as the payment is confirmed, and we email you:
- Your account already has a key: the same key gets the Premium limits right away. Nothing changes in your code.
- New account, or no key revealed yet: the email contains a one-time link to reveal your API key.
Your account is identified by its email address, so pay with the address of your existing account. If PayPal is still processing the payment when you finish, Premium starts when PayPal confirms it.
Renewal
- We email you a reminder 5 days before Premium ends, with a link to renew.
- Renew whenever you like from the pricing page with the same email address. The new period is added to the end of the current one, so renewing early never loses days.
When Premium ends
| Period | X-Account-Status | Limits |
|---|---|---|
| Until the end of the paid period | active | Premium |
| The 3 days after (grace period) | past_due | Premium |
| Afterwards | expired | Free |
A Free account that never had Premium is always active. Your API key keeps working in every state, and we email you when the account moves to Free. Renewing at any point brings it back to active Premium.
Receipts
PayPal emails a receipt for every payment to the paying PayPal account or card holder. Each payment is also in your PayPal activity. If you need an invoice, write to support.
Refunds
You can request a refund within 48 hours of a payment: write to support from your account's email address, with the PayPal transaction ID. When a payment is refunded in full, the Premium time it bought is removed from your account. If removing it puts the end date in the past, the account moves to Free immediately, without a grace period. Partial refunds don't change your Premium time. Chargebacks and payment reversals work like a full refund. See the Terms of Service.
