Disposable Email Checker

What are Disposable Emails?

Disposable (or temporary) email addresses are short-lived email accounts created specifically to avoid giving out a real email address. They're often used to bypass registration requirements, avoid spam, or commit fraud. These emails typically expire within minutes to days.

Why Block Disposable Emails?

How Disposable Detection Works

When to Allow Disposable Emails

While blocking disposable emails is usually recommended, there are cases where you might want to allow them:

• Privacy-focused applications where anonymity is important
• Testing and development environments
• Anonymous feedback or reporting systems
• One-time access or download services
• Situations where you explicitly want to protect user privacy

Best Practices for Handling Disposable Emails

Integration Examples

Here's how to check for disposable emails in your code:

// Using the free API
async function checkDisposable(email) {
  const response = await fetch(
    `https://verifyforge.com/api/validate/free?email=${email}`
  );
  const data = await response.json();

  if (data.success && data.data.disposable) {
    alert('Disposable email detected! Please use a permanent address.');
    return false;
  }
  return true;
}

import requests

def check_disposable(email):
    response = requests.get(
        f"https://verifyforge.com/api/validate/free?email={email}"
    )
    data = response.json()

    if data.get('success') and data.get('data', {}).get('disposable'):
        return True  # Is disposable
    return False  # Not disposable
