When to use ValidReach with Merge
Three common patterns teams deploy to stop hard bounces and protect domain reputation.
Protect Merge sender reputation
Remove hard-bouncing and deactivated mailboxes before Merge dispatches newsletters, lifecycle flows, or announcements.
Real-time signup & webhook verification
Validate new addresses at capture so typos and disposable domains never enter your Merge audience.
Scheduled list re-verification
Audit aging Merge segments before seasonal campaigns using bulk CSV/XLSX verification with full column preservation.
Mapping ValidReach fields into Merge
Call POST /api/v1/verify/single from your webhook or workflow runner and route contacts based on the returned status.

}validreach_status | Recommended Merge Action |
|---|---|
| valid | Allow into active Merge campaigns & flows |
| catchall / role | Tag for low-volume sending or manual review |

| invalid / disposable | Suppress or reject before Merge send |

Merge email verification questions
- Does ValidReach require a native plugin inside Merge?
- No. ValidReach connects to Merge through standard HTTPS webhooks, our REST API (POST /api/v1/verify/single and /api/v1/verify/file), or automation runners such as n8n, Make, and Zapier—so you can inspect and control every field mapped into Merge.
- How should I handle catch-all or unknown results in Merge?
- Route confirmed valid addresses directly into active Merge flows, suppress invalid and disposable addresses immediately, and tag catchall or unknown records for low-volume sending or a later retry. ValidReach never charges credits for unknown results.
- Can I verify an existing Merge export without losing custom columns?
- Yes. Upload your Merge CSV or .xlsx export to /dashboard/lists or POST /api/v1/verify/file, then download results with include_original=true to keep every original Merge column alongside the verification status and reason code.
- What is the fastest way to automate Merge verification?
- Use Merge's built-in HTTP Request module (or the n8n-nodes-validreach community node in n8n) to call POST https://validreach.dev/api/v1/verify/single with your Bearer API key.
