How does the Postcoder email validation API work?

  • Your customer enters their email address on your form

    Postcoder email validation is easy to integrate into the existing user-input forms on your website or app.

  • Postcoder validates the email address in real-time

    Postcoder performs a range of live checks to verify the email address can actually receive email.

  • You capture a valid email address every time

    Postcoder lets you know whether the email is valid, and highlights typos and disposable domains.

Why use Postcoder for email validation?

  • Reduce bogus accounts

    Eliminate fake, invalid or temporary email addresses from being used to create bogus accounts.

  • Minimise funnel leaks

    Avoid losing leads or customers at registration due to accidental typos in their email address.

  • Stay connected

    Ensure your customers get the emails they want from you by validating their email address.

  • Improve checkout times

    Don't make your customers type their email address twice. Validation helps them complete your form faster.

  • Increase email deliverability

    Enhance your sender reputation and improve deliverability rates by eliminating hard bounces.

  • Reduce support overhead

    Decrease admin time spent following up with customers who missed your important email.

An optimised developer experience

Integrate email validation in minutes with Postcoder's REST API, sample code and developer-friendly documentation.
