Have you noticed a spike in your e-mail ever since the advent of holiday season? With Christmas finally upon us, every retailer is giving away discounts and freebees to make your season bright. And if you order gifts online, you might get added to a catalog mailing list and will start receiving promotional e-mails and newsletters from the subscriber. Along with this, you must also be receiving e-mails from websites you were forced to register on. Well, with a myriad of promotional mails flowing into your inbox, it becomes a daunting task for you to look for those important personal and business communications. Well, if you can relate to this situation, then there’s an app that offers a right solution just for you.
Clear your mailbox with just a click

PaperKarma will send a message to the marketers to erase your details from their mailing list. You can even track your e-mail and observe how the app identifies the sender of the e-mail and eliminates it. Over a period of time, there will be a considerable reduction in the number of junk mails you receive. Not just clearing the mess of your inbox, PaperKarma brings down the amount of paper you use and thus makes you a part of the environment-friendly band wagon. With this app, you can stop spam mails from magazines, catalogues, coupon books, fliers, credit card offers, and white and yellow pages.

How does the application work?
PaperKarma works in a very simple way. The app has an extensive database of company information, which is where it tracks the information from.
