A card's BIN code is the first six digits of the card number. At the Consulta BIN simulation in the Sandbox environment, each one of the six digits will determine a simulated result.
It is possible to test different card numbers and observe the expected return according to the different options.
A card's BIN code should return the card brand, the type of card, the nationality, if it is a corporate card, the return of the BIN analysis and the card issuer. To know more, read the Consulta BIN section of this guide.
