What is a credit card BIN range?

BIN stands for Bank Identification Number, which is the first six digits of a payment card's Primary Account Number (PAN) that appear on the front of a credit or debit card. For instance, credit card BIN can indicate issuing bank, country, institution, and card type.

MasterCard BIN list contains all active debit and credit card ranges. You can use it to gather info about world card BINs and specific card product codes (prepaid, debit, and credit cards) for each issuer BIN account range (up to a 10th position of the PAN).

Here is the list of most popular card types and their BIN prefixes:
