Free credits, by service
Every service here lets you test before you pay. How much you get, and whether it renews, varies more than you would expect.
Every figure below is quoted from the company’s own published pages, linked and dated. Where we could not confirm something, the table says so instead of guessing.

What actually differs
- 100 free credits is the category default — four of the services on this list publish exactly that.
- Emailable publishes the largest one-off allowance at 250 credits.
- ZeroBounce's 100 credits are the only ones published as refilling every month rather than a one-time trial.
- NeverBounce confirms free test credits exist but publishes no number, so there is nothing for us to show.
Where we stand
For completeness, here are our own published figures, sourced the same way and held to the same standard: 2,500 credits at $19 to start, $299 at 100,000 pay-as-you-go, 100 free credits, and pay-as-you-go credits that never expire. We publish no data-residency commitment, so we make no residency claim — exactly as we report for any other service that does not publish one. On the round-up pages we appear as a row in the table alongside everyone else.
We are one of the services in this market, so treat this section as ours rather than as part of the comparison above. Our pricing page is the source, reviewed 2026-08-29.
