Force email verification before account provisioning

I run a two week free trial period for my hosting. It seems this is getting abused now and with no conversions. Most do not bother to verify their email address and I think the sign up is spam related.
As an added step before a free hosting period is provisioned it would be useful to insist that the email must be verified to cut down on fake signups. I cannot see an option for this currently.

Can this please be introduced.

Agree.
But free services should exclude, like yoqmail, freemail.
I agree about forcing email verification. I'm extremely surprised by how many users DON'T want to confirm their email (they've been clients for years though!).
You could write some PHP to review the client's isEmailAddressVerified() value within the Client Class: https://classdocs.whmcs.com/8.1/WHMCS/User/Client.html#method_isEmailAddressVerified https://promptoptimizer.org/
This it something that we would also like to see implemented.
