Temp Mail With No Registration

No account, no password, no phone number, no card. Here is exactly what that means, including the parts most sites leave out.

There is a particular absurdity in being asked to create an account in order to avoid creating an account. If you are here because another temp mail site wanted you to sign up first, you can stop reading and generate an address — it takes one click and asks for nothing.

If you want to know what that actually involves, the rest of this page covers it honestly.

What you are not asked for

What we do have

"No registration" does not mean nothing exists, and it would be dishonest to imply otherwise.

While an address is alive, the messages sent to it are stored on our servers so the inbox can show them to you — that is what receiving mail is. A token is kept in your browser so that only the browser which created an address can open its inbox; knowing the address alone is not enough. When you generate a replacement, or after 3 days without use, the address and every message in it are deleted.

Like any website, we see ordinary request information such as IP addresses, which is what makes it possible to keep the service running and to stop abuse. What we do not have is a name, a password, a phone number or a payment record, because we never asked for one. Our privacy policy sets this out in full.

What you give up by not signing up

Every trade-off has two sides, and this one has a real cost:

The one case where an account genuinely helps

If you need an address that stays — because a shop will send delivery updates for three weeks, or you want to reset a password next year — a disposable address is the wrong tool no matter how convenient the sign-up is. That is what permanent addresses exist for, and they do require an account, because an address that outlives your browser session has to belong to somebody.

Between the two sits the Gmail alias generator: also no registration, and the mail still reaches your own inbox.

Common questions

Do I really not need an account?

Not for temporary email. Open the site, press Generate, and the address exists. An account is only needed for paid plans with permanent addresses.

Why do other temp mail sites ask me to register?

Usually to show you advertising against a profile, or to move you onto a subscription. Neither is a reason you benefit from, which is why the free side of this site asks for nothing.

Is there a limit on how many addresses I can create?

No. There is no daily cap and no counter. Paid plans are not a way to get more addresses — they exist for people who want an address that does not expire.

Can I get my address back after it expires?

No. Without an account there is nothing to log into, and the address and its messages are deleted rather than archived. If you need an address to persist, that is what a paid plan is for.

Do you store anything about me?

Messages are stored while the address is alive so the inbox can display them, and deleted when it expires. Ordinary web request data such as IP addresses is seen, as on any site. No name, password, phone number or payment details, because none are collected.
