This API allows you to verify whether an email address belongs to a disposable or temporary service, commonly used for quick registrations, testing, or anonymous activities. When you send an email as a parameter, the API responds with a Boolean value (true or false) indicating whether that email is considered disposable.
Disposable emails come from services such as Mailinator, 10MinuteMail, Guerrilla Mail, among many others. These services allow users to generate temporary addresses that expire in minutes or hours, which can be useful in certain contexts, but can also be a risk for platforms that depend on valid registrations, real user verification, or integrity in communications.
This API is especially useful for developers and companies that want to maintain the quality of their user databases, prevent fraud, or improve their onboarding processes. For example, by integrating it into registration forms, you can block or warn users who try to use a disposable email, promoting the use of real and permanent emails.
The operation is simple: an HTTP request (GET or POST depending on implementation) is made by sending the email address, and the response is a JSON that includes the disposable field, whose value is true if the email belongs to a known temporary email domain, and false if it is a legitimate or permanent email.
In addition, the API can be backed by a constantly updated database of temporary domains, ensuring accuracy in detection, even when new disposable services appear.
In short, this API acts as an intelligent filter to identify temporary emails, allowing platforms to maintain clean, secure records that are more valuable to the business. It is easy to integrate, lightweight, and highly effective in improving data quality from the first contact with the user.
Detects whether an email address is disposable, returning true or false depending on whether it belongs to a known temporary domain.

The API returns a JSON object containing a Boolean value indicating whether the provided email address is disposable. The key field in the response is "is_disposable," which will be true if the email belongs to a known temporary domain, and false if it is a legitimate email.
The response data is structured as a JSON object. It includes a single key, "is_disposable," which holds a Boolean value. This simple structure allows for easy parsing and integration into applications.
Common use cases include validating user registrations, preventing fraud, and improving onboarding processes. By blocking disposable emails, businesses can ensure they collect valid, permanent email addresses for better user engagement and data integrity.
The API is backed by a constantly updated database of temporary email domains. This ensures that it can accurately identify new disposable services as they emerge, maintaining high detection accuracy.
The primary parameter for the API is the email address you want to verify. Users can send this email as part of a GET or POST request to receive the disposable status in the response.
The response contains the field "is_disposable." A value of true indicates the email is from a disposable service, while false indicates it is a legitimate, permanent email address. This helps users quickly assess the validity of the email.
The API returns data in JSON format. The structure includes a single key, "is_disposable," which contains a Boolean value. This format allows for straightforward integration into applications, making it easy to parse and utilize.
Users can integrate the API response into their registration forms or user verification processes. By checking the "is_disposable" field, they can prompt users to provide a valid email or block disposable addresses altogether.
The API provides information on whether an email address is disposable or not. The response indicates if the email belongs to a known temporary domain, helping users filter out invalid registrations.
The API is designed to return a definitive Boolean value for each email checked. If an invalid email format is submitted, the API may not return a valid response. Users should validate email formats before sending requests to ensure accurate results.
The API's data is sourced from a continuously updated database of known disposable email domains. This ensures that the API can accurately identify a wide range of temporary email services.
The API employs regular updates and validation checks against its database of disposable domains. This process helps ensure that the detection of temporary emails remains reliable and up-to-date.
The API consistently returns a JSON object with the "is_disposable" key. Users can expect either a true or false value, indicating the status of the email address, which simplifies decision-making in user validation processes.

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.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription.
