Live on the Chrome Web Store
A temp inbox, docked to the tab.
The signup wants an email before it will show you anything, and your phone is across the room. Fade puts a disposable address in Chrome's side panel, beside the form you are already filling in, and pulls the verification code out of the mail the second it lands.

Fade: Temp Mail
Your temporary address
quiet-fox-8421@fady.cc
Latest code
448 120
A preview of the side panel. Mail is received in the extension, not on this page.
What it looks like
It never takes the tab away from you.
No new tab, no popup that closes the moment you click the form. The panel stays open beside the page while you finish signing up.
Fade: Temp Mail
Disposable email in your browser's side panel. Copy an address, get the code. Free, with an optional Pro upgrade for aliases that never expire.
How it works
Click, paste, copy the code.
The first step has already happened by the time the panel finishes opening. There is nothing to create and nothing to sign into.
Click the Fade button
The side panel opens with a working disposable address already in it. No account, no form, no confirmation mail. Hit Copy address and it is on your clipboard.
Paste it into the signup
Hand it to the free trial, the download gate, the coupon wall or the forum that insists on an address. If the site rejects the domain, pick another from the panel and register again.
Take the code and go
Mail arrives in seconds with no refresh, and the toolbar icon gets a badge if the panel is shut. Fade lifts the verification code out of the message and shows it large, one click to copy.
What you get
Everything that matters is in the free tier.
A fresh address whenever you want one
One click, on any of several domains. Fifteen minutes by default, and Keep +15 extends it as often as you like.
Codes pulled out of the mail
Fade finds the verification code inside the message and shows it in its own card with a copy button. No scrolling, no selecting six digits with a cursor.
A badge when mail lands
Mail arrives in seconds with nothing to refresh. If the panel is closed, the toolbar icon tells you something came in.
A reader that blocks trackers
Remote images are off until you ask for them, so the tracking pixel in a marketing email never fires. Attachments preview inside the panel.
It cannot see your browsing
No content scripts, no site access, no analytics, no remote code. The only server it talks to is Fade's own.
Light and dark
The panel follows your browser theme, and works in Edge, Brave, Opera and Arc as well as Chrome.
Five aliases that never expire
Reserve up to five addresses on private domains, for the accounts you actually want to sign back into.
Mail history, kept in this browser
Messages stay on your own machine instead of disappearing with the address. Yearly or lifetime, bought through Polar.
Browser and phone
Pair it with the iPhone app.
The extension is complete on its own. If you also have Fade on your iPhone, pairing makes them one inbox: the same Pro, the same reserved aliases, the same mail, across up to three browsers.
It matters most when the code arrives after you have walked away from the laptop. Pairing takes a code shown in the panel and typed into the app. Unlink a browser from the phone at any time, and a browser that goes thirty days unused unlinks itself.
FAQs
The questions people ask before installing.
Is the Chrome extension free?
Yes. Getting an address and reading the mail it receives, verification codes included, is free and has no ads, no account and no sign-up. Fade Pro is optional and adds reserved aliases, mail history in this browser, and pairing with the iPhone app.
Does it work in Edge, Brave, Arc or Opera?
Yes. It is built for Chromium, so it installs from the same Chrome Web Store listing in Edge, Brave, Opera, Arc and other Chromium browsers on Chrome 116 or later. In browsers where Chrome's side panel is unavailable, such as Arc, Fade opens its own sidebar in the tab you clicked instead.
Can the extension see the pages I visit?
No. Fade has no content scripts and no site access: it cannot read, change or report the page you are on, and clicking its button does not grant it the page either. The only server it talks to is api.fade.email, its own. There is no analytics and no remote code. The privacy policy sets out exactly what is stored.
How long does an address last?
Fifteen minutes, and Keep +15 extends it as many times as you like. When it expires, the mail it received is deleted for good. If you want one that does not expire, that is what a reserved alias on Pro is for.
Do I need the iPhone app to use it?
No, the extension is a complete product by itself. If you do have both, pairing them shares Pro, your reserved aliases and your mail across up to three browsers and your phone, so a code that arrives while you are away from the laptop is on your phone too.
Why did a site reject my Fade address?
Some sites block known disposable domains. Open the domain picker in the panel, choose a different one and register again. That single step fixes most cases. If a code still never arrives, the troubleshooting guide works through the other three causes.
Both, ideally
Stop giving sites your real address.
Free in the browser, free on the phone, and the same inbox once you pair them. Nothing is collected, so there is nothing to leak later.
