The Phone and Email Data Validation API accurately and reliably validates user contact information, including phone numbers and email addresses, ensuring that the data is correct, complete, and properly formatted. In the case of phone numbers, the endpoint verifies their validity, determining whether the number is real and possible, and whether it complies with both national and international formatting standards. It provides standardized versions of the number, including the national, international, and E.164 standard formats, facilitating its use in global communication systems. In addition, it identifies the country associated with the number, the region or state, and the corresponding time zones, offering additional contextual information that can be useful for applications that handle schedules, message delivery, or automatic calls. It also classifies the type of number, such as landline, mobile, or other, and provides country and region codes that allow for easier integration with international databases and systems.
For email addresses, it performs a thorough validation that includes verifying the correct format, the existence of the domain, and the server's ability to receive emails through active MX records. The structure of the address is analyzed, separating the local part and the domain, and an ASCII version of the email is provided for compatibility with different systems. It also indicates whether the email supports SMTP UTF-8 encoding, which may be relevant for multilingual messages. The returned MX records allow the delivery route to be checked and ensure that the email can be received effectively. This validation helps reduce errors, prevent failed deliveries, and improve the quality of contact databases.
Together, it offers a complete solution for contact data management and verification, ensuring that both phone numbers and emails are valid, possible, correctly formatted, and functional, allowing users to optimize communications and improve the user experience.
Verify emails, validating format, domain, SMTP compatibility, MX records, and actual availability of the receiving server.

To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
