Do you need to provide an email address to sign up for a website or service, but don’t want to reveal your personal email address or receive spam emails? If so, you need a 10 minute email service. A 10 minute email service provides you with a disposable email address that you can use for a specific purpose and then discard. The email address is valid for 10 minutes by default, but can be extended to 100 minutes if necessary.

The email address is randomly generated and cannot be traced back to you. Once the email address expires, any emails sent to it are no longer accessible. This way, you can protect your privacy and avoid spam.

    I’ve been using https://simplelogin.io for this. Paid for premium and I think it’s well worth it. You don’t want to use an email that will disappear in a few days if you need to actually receive mail from whatever service you’re signing up for.

      Another Simple Login user here. Been using for years now, and since the partnership(?) with Proton, it’s included with my membership which is great.

      I love simple login. Before that I needed to handle multiple email accounts if I didn’t want to expose my main email.

      There are a few really good ones, like the one mentioned, linshi-email.com, etc. The only difference is how often the receiving domains are updated. In order to get emails you need to update them frequently because most advertising companies keep a list of which emails are dissposable.

    I have used spamgourmet for years, and also use the username+identifier format in gmail

  • I remember using 10minutemail for years, until some website I didn’t trust wouldn’t allow me to use one of the 10minutemail domains. Since then, went searching for solutions and landed on a browser extension called bloody-vikings! that integrates 10minutemail along with around a dozen other disposable email services along with some small convenience features. Best part is it’s completely free. It’s been my go-to for quite a while now.

    Yes, this is such a precious tool. And if they ask for a phone number, you can also find temporary phone number. So useful to confirm account !
