Migrate from Snov.io to Tomba Email Finder

Switch from Snov.io to Tomba for better accuracy, larger database, free verification, and 35-40% cost savings.

Why Switch from Snov.io to Tomba?

Migration Steps

Step 1: Get Tomba Credentials

1. Sign up at app.tomba.io
2. Get your API Key and Secret Key

Step 2: Update API Endpoints

Snov.io:

Code
 
POST https://api.snov.io/v1/get-emails-from-name

Tomba:

Code
 
GET https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder

Step 3: Update Authentication

Snov.io:

Code
 
{
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${SNOV_TOKEN}`
  }
}

Tomba:

Code
 
{
  headers: {
    'X-Tomba-Key': TOMBA_KEY,
    'X-Tomba-Secret': TOMBA_SECRET
  }
}

Code Examples

Node.js

Before (Snov.io):

Code
 
const axios = require("axios");

async function findEmail(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    const response = await axios.post(
        "https://api.snov.io/v1/get-emails-from-name",
        {
            domain: domain,
            firstName: firstName,
            lastName: lastName,
        },
        {
            headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.SNOV_TOKEN}` },
        },
    );

    return response.data;
}

After (Tomba with FREE verification):

Code
 
const axios = require("axios");

async function findEmail(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    const response = await axios.get("https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder", {
        params: {
            domain: domain,
            first_name: firstName,
            last_name: lastName,
        },
        headers: {
            "X-Tomba-Key": process.env.TOMBA_KEY,
            "X-Tomba-Secret": process.env.TOMBA_SECRET,
        },
    });

    const data = response.data.data;
    console.log(`Email: ${data.email}`);
    console.log(`Verified: ${data.verification.status}`); // FREE!
    console.log(`Phone: ${data.phone_number}`); // NEW!

    return data;
}

Python

Before (Snov.io):

Code
 
import requests

def find_email(domain, first_name, last_name):
    response = requests.post(
        'https://api.snov.io/v1/get-emails-from-name',
        json={
            'domain': domain,
            'firstName': first_name,
            'lastName': last_name
        },
        headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["SNOV_TOKEN"]}'}
    )
    return response.json()

After (Tomba):

Code
 
import requests

def find_email(domain, first_name, last_name):
    response = requests.get(
        'https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder',
        params={
            'domain': domain,
            'first_name': first_name,
            'last_name': last_name
        },
        headers={
            'X-Tomba-Key': os.environ['TOMBA_KEY'],
            'X-Tomba-Secret': os.environ['TOMBA_SECRET']
        }
    )

    data = response.json()['data']
    print(f"Verified: {data['verification']['status']}")  # FREE!
    return data

Drip Campaign Alternative

Snov.io's drip campaigns can be replaced with:

1. Zapier Integration: Connect Tomba → Email tool
2. n8n Workflow: Build custom automation
3. Direct Integration: Use Tomba API + your CRM

Code
 
// Example: Tomba + Mailchimp integration
const tomba = require("tomba");
const mailchimp = require("@mailchimp/mailchimp_marketing");

async function addToSequence(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    // 1. Find & verify email with Tomba
    const contact = await tomba.emailFinder({
        domain,
        first_name: firstName,
        last_name: lastName,
    });

    // 2. Add to Mailchimp campaign
    if (contact.verification.status === "valid") {
        await mailchimp.lists.addListMember(LIST_ID, {
            email_address: contact.email,
            status: "subscribed",
            merge_fields: {
                FNAME: firstName,
                LNAME: lastName,
                PHONE: contact.phone_number,
            },
        });
    }
}

Cost Comparison

5,000 Emails/Month

Snov.io:

• Plan: $99/month (5,000 credits)
• Verification: Limited
• Total: $99/month

Tomba:

• Plan: $59/month (5,000 searches)
• Verification: FREE
• Total: $59/month

💰 Savings: $40/month = $480/year (40% cheaper!)

    headers: { "X-Tomba-Key": KEY, "X-Tomba-Secret": SECRET },
});
