Disposable Email Address Detector: What You Need to Know

A disposable email address is a temporary, single-use email address that people use to sign up for websites or buy online goods and services. It is often used for a short period of time and then forgotten about, much like a styrofoam cup or piece of tissue paper. Unlike normal email addresses, DEAs don’t provide any engagement for marketers and can lead to fraud or abuse.

Unlike other disposable email checkers, this free tool uses a combination of email validation and natural language processing to identify disposable emails. It checks the candidate email against a database of known disposable email service providers and examines the content of the associated webpage for keywords related to temporary email use such as “temporary”, “disposable,” or “fake.” If the candidate is found in the list, it is classified as a disposable email.

The tool also provides a powerful API endpoint to perform real-time disposable email detection, allowing you to integrate it into your website or app and detect DEAs before they enter your system. To start, simply visit Kickbox’s website and sign up for a free account to get an API key, which comes with 100 free test credits.
