How Does ZeroBounce Ensure the Accuracy of Found Emails?

ZeroBounce ensures the accuracy of found emails with its guaranteed 99.6% accurate email validation. Any time you perform an email finder search with both a name and domain, ZeroBounce will continue to test and verify new patterns until it identifies a valid result.

Be aware that accuracy can only be assured with a name-based email finder search. If you perform a search with only the domain, ZeroBounce can only guess potential patterns.

How accurate is a "high confidence" score?

When searching for business emails with only a domain, a confidence score is attached to possible patterns used by that domain, discerned by various factors, including internal technologies and public records.

However, you should note that even a high confidence score is not a guarantee. It's possible that specific email address patterns, while valid, are outdated or used as a catch-all. You may be able to deliver a message to the address successfully, but you aren't guaranteed a response.

It's always recommended to verify any email address before sending a message. While the occasional bounced message is nothing to worry about, it quickly becomes problematic if you attempt to email many addresses that haven't been validated.

I received a valid email address; why do other patterns show "high confidence?"

If your email finderⓘ search delivers a valid email address, you can be confident in your result. Generally, the top email address pattern will match the pattern of your new business email.

But, your results may also show other patterns that also have a "high confidence" score. This doesn't mean that your email address is inaccurate but that ZeroBounce found other patterns on that domain that are also in use. The company may use multiple email structures, or they may have yet to do anything with otherwise unused email addresses.

ZeroBounce email verification has an accuracy guarantee

Finally, ZeroBounce ensures its accuracy with a money-back guarantee. If it determines an email address to be valid, it stands by its results. If, after using ZeroBounce, you find your email addresses to be invalid or experience a high bounce volume, please contact ZeroBounce support. The team is ready to work with you to determine the issue with your email finderⓘ results and will do what's necessary to make it right for you.
