Clearbit Connect Help

If you're experiencing issues connecting to Clearbit Connect, there are several steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the problem. Clearbit Connect is a Chrome extension that provides users with the ability to find verified emails and company information directly within Gmail or while browsing the web. It's essential to ensure that you're using the extension correctly and that your system meets the necessary requirements for optimal performance.

Experiencing issues with Clearbit Connect? Bardeen offers automations that leverage Clearbit's capabilities, enhancing your productivity without manual connections.

Installation and Setup

First, verify that you have successfully installed the Clearbit Connect extension from the Chrome Web Store. If not, visit this link to install it. After installation, ensure that you have connected your email account to the extension. This step is crucial for the extension to work correctly within Gmail.

Checking Free Credits

Clearbit Connect provides users with 10 free credits per month, which are used each time an email is revealed within the extension. If you're unable to connect or find emails, check your credit usage in your Connect settings. It's possible you may have exhausted your monthly credits. To check your credits, go to your credits dashboard in Connect's settings.

Earning More Free Credits

While there's currently no direct way to earn additional free credits through the extension, users with a paid Clearbit Capture subscription can identify and send thousands of contacts directly to their CRM. This feature is beneficial for users who require more extensive access to email addresses and company information.

Personal Data and Privacy Concerns

Clearbit Connect collects three types of data during setup and usage: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) via email and name when creating an account, location data via IP address, and web history to provide enriched company data. However, Clearbit does not associate web history data with you as a user. If privacy concerns are preventing you from connecting, understanding these data collection practices may alleviate some worries.

Enhance your data enrichment processes with Bardeen's seamless integration with Clearbit, ensuring uninterrupted workflows.

Seeking Further Assistance

If you've followed the above steps and are still facing issues with Clearbit Connect, it may be beneficial to seek further assistance. Visit the Clearbit Product Support Help Center and consider submitting a request for help. The support team can provide more detailed guidance and troubleshooting steps specific to your situation.
