Introduction

The UserCheck API is organized around REST. Our API has predictable resource-oriented URLs, accepts JSON-encoded request bodies, returns JSON-encoded responses, and uses standard HTTP response codes, authentication, and verbs.

The UserCheck API is continuously updated with new disposable email providers and enhanced validation rules to provide the most accurate email verification service.

Base URL

All API requests should be made to:

https://api.usercheck.com

Quick Start

Here's a simple example of checking if an email is disposable:

curl -X GET "https://api.usercheck.com/email/[email protected]" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Response:

{
  "status": 200,
  "email": "[email protected]",
  "domain": "example.com",
  "mx": true,
  "disposable": false,
  "public_domain": false,
  "relay_domain": false,
  "alias": false,
  "role_account": true,
  "spam": false,
  "did_you_mean": null,
  "blocklisted": false
}
