In this article, you’ll learn how to add real-time email verification in Clickfunnels without dealing with any code in as little as 5 minutes.

What is the benefit of adding real-time email validation to your funnels?

Clickfunnels doesn’t really validate email addresses, so people can opt-in on your funnel page with fake email addresses like [email protected].

Whenever somebody opts in on your funnel page with a fake email address, this email address ends up on your email list. The emails you’ll try to send to those addresses will bounce and harm your sender’s reputation. If you have a high bounce rate, your autoresponder can simply cancel your account because they’ll assume that you didn’t obtain those email addresses legally and are spamming people.

Besides the people who opt-in with a fake email address on purpose, some may enter their email address with a typo without noticing it. They’ll wait for your lead magnet, an order confirmation email, etc., but will not receive it as they entered the wrong email address. This will cause you more support effort as they will most likely reach out to your support team.

All of this can be easily avoided by using real-time email validation!

When you add the real-time email verification to your Clickfunnels account, visitors of your funnel will NOT be able to opt in unless they use a valid email address.

That means your list will remain clean, and the chance that your emails will end up in spam is lower. Therefore, it’s a no-brainer to set up proper email validation on your funnel pages!

How to Add The Real-Time Email Verification in Clickfunnels

Step 1: Get The NeverBounce API Key

You can find your NeverBounce API key within the JavaScript Widget App at NeverBounce.

If you already have a NeverBounce account and a JavaScript Widget App

  1. Click on the Widget App you want to use.
  2. ​Expend the Your Widget Snippet section and copy the API key.
Note: as shown below, you need to copy ONLY the API key (without commas and without the rest of the code).

If you do NOT have a NeverBounce account

  1. Create an account with NeverBounce.
  2. Log in to your NeverBounce account and go to Apps in the top right corner.
  3. ​Click Create New App.
  4. Give it a name and select Javascript Widget in the App Type section.
  1. Enter the domain of your funnel WITHOUT https://

If you want the Power Script to work on the funnel preview, add app.clickfunnels.com as a domain as well.

  1. Define the Throttle Usage (see the screenshot below).
    This setting defines how often a user from one IP address can try to opt in with an email address in a certain period. Defining the throttling limit will also prevent automated scripts and bots from opting in. While the suggested value is 10 verifications per minute per IP address, this number can vary depending on your target audience and traffic.
  2. ​The last setting is the Low Balance Alert.
    If you want to be notified when you’re about to run out of verification credits, define the minimum credit threshold and the email address to which the notification should be sent.
  3. Click Create App.
  1. Expend the Your Widget Snippet section and copy the API key.
Note: as shown below, you need to copy ONLY the API key (without the commas and without the rest of the code).

  1. Log in to your CF Power Scripts account and head to the Power Scripts tab.
  2. Select the funnel and the funnel step where you want to add the Power Script.
  3. ​Click Add New and choose the Neverbounce Power Script that you’ll need to use to add the email verification to your Clickfunnels account.
  1. It'll open the settings of the NeverBounce Power Script. Paste the NeverBounce API Key you copied in Step 1.
  2. Click Add Script.
