A verification email is an email company should send the user after taking a particular action from their side.
The company should send a verification email to users:
- After they optin in their optin form/newsletter on the website or landing page
- When they create the user account/register to a new account/sign up
- When they sign up for the free trial or premium services
- After opening the support ticket
- After filling out the business forms, forms for event registration, product or service giveaways
The purpose of the verification email is to
- reduce spam emails
- avoid incorrect emails
- eliminate the usage of old emails that users don’t use anymore
- improve the email deliverability
When the user verifies the email, you are sure that the account is ok, and people will use the membership site or SaaS app and read your emails and newsletters. This is important because when managing a customer portal, you also need to ensure that the emails used to access it are valid and owned by your users or customers.
A verification email should be concise and straight to the point. It needs to inform the user about their next step and create urgency.
Here are some subject lines for the verification email
- One more step! Confirm your email address

- Confirm your email address
