Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Use Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n, terminal commands, or ask an AI assistant to write the integration.
Is the API included in my plan?
Yes. Every Icypeas account can activate the API. It uses the same credits as the app.
Why don't I get the email right away?
Icypeas checks emails live with the company's mail server, which takes a few seconds. You start the search, then read the result or receive it via webhook.
How long does a bulk search take?
Up to 5,000 per bulk search call, one call per second; hundreds of searches take a few minutes.
Am I charged when no email is found?
Not for email search—you pay 1 credit only when an email is found. Email verification always costs 0.1 credit.
How many emails can I find at once?
Up to 5,000 per bulk search call, one call per second.
What's the difference between ultra_sure and probable?
ultra_sure/very_sure = bounce rate below 1%; probable = bounce rate below 5%.
Should I give the company name or its website?
Give the website domain when you have it (e.g., icypeas.com instead of Icypeas)—it's more precise.
How do I check how many credits I have left?
Call the subscription endpoint (free).
Is Icypeas GDPR compliant?
Yes. Icypeas finds emails using only open sources, offers an opt-out system, and provides only professional data (never personal data).
