Changing Your Password

Need to change your ZeroBounce password? Below you'll find all the info you need.

Changing your ZeroBounce password to a secure password that only you know, and that no one else can guess, protects your private information from unauthorized access.

We recommend, but do not require a password:

  • with 8 or more characters,
  • including numbers,
  • and including both uppercase and lowercase letters and special symbols.

To ensure your account's security, we do require a password of 6 characters or more.

Now, let's guide you through the process of changing your password. It's really quick and simple.

  1. Step 1:

    Click on your "Profile" on the top-right menu. Then click or scroll down to the "Change Password" section

    Change Password section found under your account profile

    That's it! You will be signed out and you can now sign in again with your new password.

Two-Factor Authentication

We implemented two-factor authentication to serve as an extra layer of security. It is an authentication mechanism that double checks if your identity is legitimate.

Traditionally, when you want to sign in to your account, you are prompted to authenticate with a username and a password. Two-factor authentication will work as an extra step in the authentication process that helps us confirm your identity and ensure the maximum security level for your account.

If you wish your account to be more secure, we strongly encourage you to activate the Two-Factor Authentication feature as soon as possible.

ENABLING TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION

  1. Step 1:

    Click on your Profile on the top-right menu. Then find the Two-Factor Authentication switch in the "Change Password" section. Toggle the switch to ON.

  2. Step 2:

    In order to activate Two-Factor Authentication, you need to install Authy (IOS/Android) or Google Authenticator (IOS/Android) on your phone. After you install one of these and configure it, you are ready to move on to the next step.

  3. Step 3:

    Great! Now use Authy or Google Authenticator to scan the QR Code or just manually type the provided code in the field as shown below.

    REMEMBER: For security purposes, the code is refreshed every 30 seconds.

  4. Step 4:

    Congratulations! You now have an extra layer of security activated on your account.

  5. Step 5:

    When you sign in next time, after you enter your username and password, you will be prompted to provide the six-digit code from your authenticator app in order to authenticate successfully.

Reset instructions for Authy: In order to reset your phone at Authy, just follow these instructions.

Reset instructions for Google Authenticator:

When you first setup Two-Factor Authentication, you received a backup code. You will need that code in order to reset your phone for Google Authenticator.

    Region or country selection for TimeZone settings for your ZeroBounce account

That's it! You're all set to use your email validator in the new time zone!

Cleaning your list regularly ensures you maintain a healthy sender reputation and high deliverability on your newsletters and email campaigns. Remember to validate your email database at least once per quarter or whenever you see signs that suggest low inbox placement – such as low open rates and a bounce rate higher than 2%.

If you're not adding many contacts to your email list, then make the most of the free email verification credits you get from ZeroBounce!

Every month, we replenish your account with 100 free email validationⓘ credits. Alternatively, you can score catch-all email addresses using the same credits – our email scoringⓘ service will help you figure out which ones are active.

Need help verifying your list or changing your time zone? Our team is available 24/7 to guide you.

Account Assist

At ZeroBounce, user privacy and data security are our main concern. In order to keep your data safe, no one in our organization can access your account without your authorization.

However, there may be times when you need help with your account. In the"Account Options"page you can grant a Customer Success Technician temporary access to your account. There is no need to share your password. In fact, nobody should ever have to ask for the password of your account.

  1. Step 1:

    In order to grant us temporary access to your account, first sign in and go to your Account options from the top-right menu.

    Account Help section under the Account settings

Deleting Your Account

We don't want to see you leave, but if you decide to delete your account, below you will find all the info you need.

First, you should know that deleting your account will:

  • delete all your email validations, so you won't be able to access that data anymore
  • also, deleting your account will remove your access to the Members Area.

Many companies incorporate email verification into their digital marketing workflows, so you may need to validate your email list again in a while. If you want to create another account on zerobounce.net in the future, you will be able to do so with the same email address. We won't hold a grudge.

You can always come back and verify your list at 99.6% accuracy. Also, creating another account will give you access again to 100 free email validations a month.

To delete your account, sign in and click on "Account Options" on the left-hand menu. Then click on the "Delete Account settings" icon button in order to start the deletion process.

This will take you to the webpage below.
