<p data-path-to-node="8,0,0"><b data-path-to-node="8,0,0" data-index-in-node="0">Zero Friction:</b> Unlike OTPs (One-Time Passwords), real-time checks happen in the background, so the user never has to switch tabs or check their inbox.</p>

<p data-path-to-node="8,1,0"><b data-path-to-node="8,1,0" data-index-in-node="0">Proactive Prevention:</b> It stops “disposable” or “typo” emails before they enter your database, whereas OTPs only verify that an inbox exists (even if it’s a temporary one).</p>

<p data-path-to-node="8,1,0"><b data-path-to-node="8,2,0" data-index-in-node="0">Higher Conversions:</b> By removing the “waiting” step, you reduce the drop-off rate typically seen when users get distracted while waiting for a verification link.</p>

<h2>Integrations with MailPoet and WPForms</h2>
<p><strong><img class="aligncenter wp-image-18734006335065 " src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/mailpoet_munjr_wpforms_integration-e1771440245354.png?w=896" alt="" width="666" height="208" /></strong></p>
<p>InstaMail Verification extends beyond WooCommerce checkout and registration to verify emails across your entire WordPress site through powerful integrations:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>MailPoet Integration:</strong> Automatically verify email addresses when users subscribe to MailPoet lists. Verification happens before subscription is completed, preventing invalid emails from entering your lists.</li>
<li><strong>WPForms Integration:</strong> Verify email addresses submitted through WPForms contact forms, newsletter signups, and other form submissions. Configure which forms and fields to check, ensuring only valid emails are collected through your forms.</li>
</ul>
<p>Both integrations use the same verification actions and settings as checkout and registration, providing consistent email validation across your entire site. Enable and configure integrations from <strong>WooCommerce > Settings > InstaMail Verification > Integrations</strong>.</p>
<h2>Real-time protection during checkout and account registration</h2>
<p>Our extension integrates seamlessly with your WooCommerce checkout process, verifying email addresses as customers enter them. No more waiting for bounce notifications or discovering invalid emails weeks later.</p>

<h2>When it comes to email verification, not all methods are created equal.</h2>

<p><strong>The Approve New User Registration extension, for WooCommerce and WordPress, allows you to manually validate new user registration requests for specific, or all, user roles.</strong></p>
<p>This tool, therefore, assists in deterring both unwelcome fake registrations and spam by isolating your digital store for selective customers.</p>
<div class="woo-sc-box normal">If you want to add custom registration fields and user roles dropdown along with approve new user, please buy our <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/custom-user-registration-fields-for-woocommerce/">Custom Registration Fields Extension</a>. See FAQs below for more details.</div>
<p>The areas where the extension can help include:</p>
<p><strong>Limiting Access </strong></p>
<p>If you are a B2B merchant, or sell unique products, limiting access could require extensive customer verification — but permitting customers to peruse your website before you grant permission might not be secure. Manual approval, therefore, is an effective way for you to restrict access and take control of new users until they have been properly verified and approved.</p>
<p><strong>Avoid Fake/Spam Accounts</strong></p>
<p>With spamming and fake accounts a real concern for merchants, it’s important to be able to identify true prospective customers from the start.  This plugin will help you filter out potential clients and maintain a valuable consumer base for recurring business.</p>
<h2><strong>Features:</strong></h2>
<ul>
<li>Employ manual approval for specific user roles or all new registrations</li>
<li>Customize user status notifications</li>
<li>Email notifications to customers and admins</li>
<li>Add approval/disapproval link in admin email</li>
<li>Bulk user approval option available on <em>Users Listing</em> page</li>
</ul>
<h3><strong>Manual approval for particular or all user roles</strong></h3>
<p>When you require your user to wait for approval in order to visit your site this plugin will come to the rescue with its manual approval function. You can choose to apply this to a particular type of user role, or you may want to apply it to all user roles. The plugin will support you in either scenario.</p>
<p>Limiting your users’ access to the website, based on user roles is particularly helpful if you have specialized products, prices, and other offers associated with VIP user roles.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> To display user roles dropdown on your registration form you can use our <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/choose-user-role-at-registration/">Choose User Roles at Registration</a> extension or the <a href="https://woocommerce.com/products/custom-user-registration-fields-for-woocommerce/">custom user registration fields</a>.</p>

<h3><strong>Customize email notifications</strong></h3>
<p>Easily convey the message of a pending approval, or a declined request, with completely tailored email templates communicating all the details you want of the registration process to your customer. Effective communication between site owners and customers is a great start to a healthy business-consumer relationship. Use the customizable email notifications to additionally alert your admin account users of all pending registration requests.</p>
<p><strong>Approve and disapprove link in the email</strong></p>
<p>The extension automatically adds user approval and disapproval link in the admin emails to let merchants approve or disapprove new user requests on the go.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-6403798" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Email-Settings.jpg" alt="" width="980" height="801" /></p>
<h3>Customize Error Messages</h3>
<p>Along with email notifications, this extension allows you to display custom messages to inform customers about their account status. You can show messages in the following instances:</p>
<ul>
<li>When a new account is created and awaiting approval</li>
<li>When a user tries to login but the account is pending for review</li>
<li>When a user tries to login but the account is delined</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>If I need to approve new users and add custom fields as well, do I need to buy 2 extensions?</strong></p>

<p><strong>Does it work for WordPress only?</strong></p>
