Repeat checks for the same account and address are free within 24 hours unless you request a force refresh. [All help topics](https://billionverify.com/help.md) **Short answer:** No — not within a 24-hour window. If you verify the same email address again **within 24 hours**, the second check does **not** cost you an additional credit. You are billed once per address per 24-hour period. ## How it works When you verify an address and we return a billable result, we remember that you've paid for that address. For the next **24 hours**, re-verifying the same address (for example, because it appears again in another list, or you run the same file twice) returns the result **without charging you again**. This dedup is tied to **your account and the specific address** — it does not depend on anyone else's verifications. After 24 hours, the address is treated as a fresh check and is billed normally, because email deliverability can change over time and a day-old answer should be re-confirmed. ## When you will be charged again - **After 24 hours** have passed since the last billable check of that address. - **When you request a force-refresh** (`force_refresh=true`). A force-refresh deliberately skips all caching and dedup to run a brand-new live verification, so it is always billed according to its fresh result. Use it when you specifically want an up-to-the-second answer and don't mind paying for it. ## Interaction with free results The 24-hour rule only matters for results that are billable in the first place. Results that are already free — `unknown`, `disposable`, and syntax-only invalids — cost nothing regardless of how many times you check them. ## What we recommend - Don't worry about accidental duplicates in a list — you won't be double-charged inside the 24-hour window. - Only use `force_refresh=true` when you truly need a live re-check; otherwise you'll pay again for an address you already verified today. ## Related questions [### Which results consume credits?
