Use Temp Mail for Online Shopping — Avoid Marketing Spam

Shop online without the flood of promotional emails. Learn how disposable email keeps your inbox clean after purchases.

The Online Shopping Spam Problem

Every time you buy something online, you hand over your email address. What follows is predictable: daily promotional emails, "flash sale" alerts, and newsletters you never asked for.

How Temp Mail Solves This

Generate a temp address on InboxBurn before checking out.

Use it as your order email — you will still receive your order confirmation and shipping updates.

Set the expiry to 3 days — enough time to receive tracking information and delivery confirmation.

After delivery, the address self-destructs and so does the spam pipeline.

What About Returns?

If you might need to return an item, extend your InboxBurn inbox or save the order confirmation email before the address expires. Most return processes only need the order number, which you can copy immediately.

When to Use Your Real Email Instead

Warranty registrations — you may need proof of purchase months later.

Subscription boxes — recurring deliveries need a persistent address.

Loyalty programs you actually want to keep.

Pro Tip

Use InboxBurn's custom prefix feature with the store name (e.g., \[email protected]\) so you can quickly identify which emails belong to which purchase.
