ZapBounce vs Reoon
Reoon has a strong reputation on cold-email forums for hard domains, and it reports that work as a 0-to-100 score. ZapBounce reports the same hard addresses as a count: four fixed results, coverage on every list, and unknowns never billed. The comparison is really about which of those two you can audit.

Why teams pick ZapBounce over Reoon
What changes when your list runs through ZapBounce instead.
The short version
- At a million addresses, $949 against Reoon's $960, with unknowns and duplicates never billed.
- Unknowns are never billed, stated on our pricing page. Reoon's pages do not state a policy on unknowns.
- A $5 entry for a single thousand checks, with no minimum. Reoon does not list a 1,000 tier separately.
- Four fixed results instead of a 0-to-100 score, so a segment rule cannot drift when a threshold moves inside the product.
- Coverage reported as a plain count on every list: the share with a definite verdict, which no threshold can move.
Moving off Reoon
Reporting, more than price. A 0-to-100 score folds the unresolved share into a number whose threshold lives inside the product. Teams that want a plain count of what reached a verdict, and a written rule that unknowns are never billed, look for a verifier that states both.
Simple. The thing to check is whether their five-step score is wired into your segmentation, because a 0-to-100 number does not map cleanly onto four verdicts.
The hard addresses, and how they come back
Questions people ask about Reoon
Where does ZapBounce come out ahead of Reoon?
On reporting and on the billing rule. ZapBounce counts the unresolved share as coverage instead of folding it into a score, and states that unknowns are never billed. On price, it is $5 for the first thousand with no minimum, and $949 against $960 at a million.
Is a 0-to-100 score better than a verdict?
It carries more information and it is harder to audit. Somebody chose the threshold that turns 62 into a send and 58 into a hold, and that choice can move without you noticing. A count of unresolved addresses is blunter and it cannot drift.
Do they really resolve more Yahoo addresses?
That is their reputation on cold-email forums. Test it directly: build a sample from Yahoo and Microsoft-hosted domains, run it through both, and count the rows with a definite verdict. ZapBounce reports that count as coverage, so the comparison is one number against another.
Is ZapBounce cheaper than Reoon?
At 100,000 addresses we list $139 and they list $116.40, and 1,000,000 for $960. Compare the per-address rate rather than the headline, and check what each side does with unknowns: ours are never billed.
Can I test both before deciding?
Yes, and you should. Run the same sample of a few thousand addresses through each and compare how many came back unresolved. That difference matters more than either accuracy claim.
Run a Yahoo-heavy sample through both and count the definite verdicts. Then read the invoices: on ZapBounce, every unknown in that sample cost nothing.
