What is a BIN?
A Bank Identification Number (BIN), also called an IIN (Issuer Identification Number), is the first 6 to 8 digits of a payment card. It identifies the institution that issued the card, the payment network it runs on, and the type of account behind it — well before any transaction reaches the cardholder's full details.
Businesses use BIN data to verify card authenticity, detect mismatched billing countries, reduce fraud and chargebacks, and route payments intelligently — all without ever touching sensitive cardholder information.

Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers about BIN lookup results and getting a Card App virtual card.
A BIN (Bank Identification Number), also called an IIN, is the first 6 to 8 digits of a payment card. It can identify the card network, issuing country, issuer, and card category when that information is available.
Enter only the first 6 to 8 digits of the card. Never enter the full card number, CVV, PIN, expiry date, or any other sensitive payment information.
The amount of information shown depends on the external BIN data provider and its subscription level. Some issuer, network, validation, or card-type fields may not be included in the current plan.
No. A BIN lookup provides general issuer metadata only. It does not confirm the card balance, cardholder identity, activation status, transaction approval, or whether a merchant will accept the card.
