Email Validation
Validate email addresses in real-time as they are being entered or in large batches, ensuring the mailboxes are genuine and can receive mail.
Overview
Loqate Email Validation goes beyond checking for an @ symbol and a valid domain to detect whether the mailbox is genuine and can receive mail. Our solution returns response fields that can be set up in the customer’s back-end system to trigger several flags as part of any identity verification or fraud alert risk processes. Loqate’s Email Validation helps businesses maintain the quality of their customer data, improve effectiveness of their account protection measures, increase their email deliverability, protect sender reputation and ensure they can effectively communicate with their customers during support and service cases, delivering premium customer experiences.
Real time Email Validation
Validate a single email address at the point of entry as part of your digital customer onboarding process.
Batch Email Validation
Validate multiple email addresses as part of your backend process. Submit requests containing up to 100,000 emails for validation and retrieve them at a later time.
Response Fields
| Name | Type | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Status | String | Valid | The "Status" response field in email verification helps businesses determine if an email address is valid, invalid, unknown, or if full verification is not possible. This enables informed decisions on accepting or rejecting addresses. |
| Email Address | String | testing@test123.com | The email address that verification was attempted on. |
| Account | String | testing | The "Account" response field in an email validation API check is valuable to a company because it allows you to extract the account portion of an email address. This can be used for personalised communication, user categorisation, and targeted marketing efforts. |
| Domain | String | test123.com | This check validates whether the domain entered exists and is properly configured. It verifies the email address's domain, ensuring reliable email delivery and reducing spam. |
| IsDisposible | Boolean | False | The "IsDisposable" field in an email validation check helps prevent fraud by indicating whether the email address is associated with a disposable mailbox. This information assists in identifying potentially fraudulent activities and enables businesses to implement appropriate measures to mitigate risks. |
| IsSystemMailbox | Boolean | True | The "IsSystemMailbox" field in an email validation check identifies whether the email address is a system mailbox (e.g., sales@, support@). This helps prevent fraud and allows businesses to apply specific rules and handling processes for such addresses. |
