Learn more about how temporary email works.

Is TempZap free to use?

Yes, TempZap is completely free. You can generate temporary email addresses and receive emails without creating an account or paying any subscription fee. There are no hidden charges.

No. TempZap works instantly in your browser. You can generate and use temporary email addresses without signing up. An optional account is available only if you want access to additional email domains.

How long does a temporary email stay active?

Your temporary email address can be reused as long as the inbox is active. However, all emails received in the mailbox are automatically deleted after 48 hours to keep the system fast and protect your privacy. After deletion, emails cannot be recovered.

Using TempZap

Can I receive OTP or verification emails?

Yes. TempZap supports receiving OTP codes, verification emails, and account activation messages from many websites and online services. This allows you to verify accounts without exposing your personal email address.

Can I send or reply to emails?

No. TempZap is designed only for receiving emails. Sending or replying to messages is not supported in order to prevent spam and abuse. For outgoing email, please use a standard email provider.

Are attachments supported?

Yes. TempZap supports receiving small email attachments. You can download attachments from emails before they are automatically deleted after 48 hours. For security reasons, avoid opening suspicious attachments.

How many email IDs can I create?

You can generate up to 24 temporary email IDs per day. Some restricted or inappropriate email names may be blocked to prevent abuse. This limit ensures fair usage for all.

Can I use TempZap on mobile devices?

Yes. TempZap is a fully web‑based service that works on smartphones, tablets, and desktop devices. No app installation is required – just open your browser and visit tempzap.com.

Can I download my emails?

Yes. If you need to keep an email longer than 48 hours, you can download or save it (e.g., as a text file or screenshot) before it is automatically deleted from your temporary inbox.

Privacy & Security

Why should I use a temporary email address?

Using a temporary email address helps protect your personal email from spam, marketing messages, and unwanted newsletters. It also improves privacy when signing up for websites, testing online services, or accessing gated content. For a deeper look, read our guide on whether temporary email is safe.

Is TempZap secure?

TempZap is designed for temporary, non‑sensitive communications. We use HTTPS encryption to protect your connection. However, because temporary inboxes are accessible by anyone who knows the address (randomly generated, so very unlikely), you should never use TempZap for sensitive personal or financial information such as banking, medical records, or password reset links for important accounts.

What is a disposable email address?

A disposable email address is a temporary mailbox that can receive emails for a limited time and then automatically expires. It is commonly used to protect privacy and reduce spam. TempZap provides these addresses for free.

Troubleshooting

What should I do if my email does not arrive?

If your email does not appear in your TempZap inbox:

  • Refresh the page after 30–60 seconds
  • Check that you entered the correct temporary email address on the website
  • Note that some websites may block temporary email domains – try generating a new address with a different domain (available with optional account)
  • Email delivery can be delayed due to server load or sender restrictions
