What This Add-On Does
Fake email addresses and typos cost you real leads. Someone fills out your form with “[email protected]” and you never hear from them again — the confirmation bounces, the follow-up bounces, and that contact record just sits there taking up space. The Gravity Forms QuickEmailVerification Add-On checks email addresses at the moment of submission, before that bad data ever hits your database.
It plugs into Gravity Forms and runs each submitted email through QuickEmailVerification’s checking service. Catch a typo, a disposable address, or a mailbox that doesn’t exist, and you can stop the entry before it becomes a wasted follow-up or a bounced newsletter send. For anyone running lead capture forms, gated content, or email list sign-ups through WordPress, that’s the difference between a clean contact list and one full of dead weight.

Does this add-on block form submission entirely, or just flag bad emails?
The add-on checks the email address against QuickEmailVerification’s service at submission time. How you handle a failed check — blocking the submission outright or letting it through with a flag on the entry — depends on how you configure the form’s validation settings.
Will this slow down my form submissions?
There’s a brief check that happens against the QuickEmailVerification service before the entry is saved, since the validation happens in real time rather than as a background process. For most contact and lead forms this is a non-issue, but it’s worth testing on forms where submission speed is critical, like checkout flows with tight timing.
