Email validation verifies all email addresses imported into Distrobird, ensuring that they are deliverable and valid. This is vital as it not only helps users organize and clean their email address list, but also improves your email sender rating, allowing you to get the most out of your email program.
Email validation can be set during data upload as well as on your organization settings page.
Phone number validation checks for the accuracy of a phone number that has been imported. It allows you check if a contact's phone number is active and able to receive calls.
Email validation can be set during data upload as well as on your organization settings page.
