Concerns About Email Verification Pricing and Competitors

why is the cost for email verification one whole credit? it would make sense for it to charge 0.2 instead, there are a lot of email verifiers out there like leadmagic that even charge 1 credit for 20 email verification.

We charge 1 credit per email verification when using our Clay-managed LeadMagic account. This pricing is consistent across various LeadMagic actions in Clay, including Find Work Email, Validate Email, and Enrich Company. While other services may have different pricing models, our current structure aligns with LeadMagic's integration in Clay. If you need more credits, you can purchase credit top-ups, which cost 50% more than your plan's typical per-credit cost. For detailed information on how Clay credits work, you can refer to our guide on Clay credits overview.

We understand your concern about the pricing. Our email verification cost is set at 1 credit per enriched cell when using the Clay-managed LeadMagic account. While this may seem higher compared to some services, it's important to note that Clay offers several advantages: 1. We provide access to multiple data providers, increasing overall data coverage. 2. Our approach often results in better data quality and higher success rates. 3. We offer transparent pricing and wholesale rates from providers. If you need more credits, you can purchase credit top-ups at 50% more than your plan's typical per-credit cost. We're constantly working to improve our services and provide the best value to our users.

I would like to know from the support team if you are getting questions like these from clay users and if you are going to work on this, tools like databar do the same thing but chage way less for email verification

Hi Manav, thanks for your message! Just to clarify—Leadmagic credits are separate from Clay credits and aren’t interchangeable, as they run on different platforms with distinct pricing models. The cost of actions like email validation reflects what providers charge us. That said, if you’d prefer not to use Clay credits for this, you can connect your own ZeroBounce (or other validation provider) API key to Clay and use it with your personal key—this way, you’ll bypass Clay credits and be billed directly by the validation provider.
