Bouncer Shield vs
Bouncer API.
Find your best fit!
You finally get traffic, but half your “new contacts” aren’t real.
Some emails bounce. Others are typo-riddled.
We get it. That’s why Bouncer offers two ways to clean up your funnel.
Bouncer Shield and Bouncer API.

Instant, zero-fuss setup (Shield) or ultimate control (API)?
Features | Bouncer Shield | Bouncer API |
---|---|---|
Setup | Ready in minutes. Plug it in and go. | Needs backend integration. Best for dev teams. |
Best for | SMBs, marketing teams, anyone needing a quick fix or minimal dev resources. | Power users, SaaS platforms, teams needing deep control |
Verification | Same best-in-class deliverability & toxicity engine as the API. | Same core engine – no compromise on quality. |
IP & Abuse control | Built-in IP checks, throttles abusive usage (e.g., one IP per hour). | Not included (needs your own handling). |
Styling | Easy, with a simple configurator – no coding needed. | Do what you want – custom CSS, full code access. |
Security | Uses public API keys (can’t download your data, only triggers checks). | More secure when integrated right; needs private backend. |
Maintenance | Bouncer does it for you; no code upkeep. | You’re responsible for integration updates. |
Scalability | Handles high volumes, no dev bottleneck. | Handles large volumes; great for backend automations. |
Pricing | Flexible monthly subscription, cheaper per verification, small fee per shield. | Pay-as-you-go, sometimes higher per verification. |
