There is a tendency of getting MasterCard BINs from issuers lacking appropriate information. We hope that this situation will soon get better. Until then, every MasterCard in our database counts as credit card unless stated otherwise. 

In fact, charge card is not a credit card or a debit card. Charge cards - primarily issued by American Express - require cardholders to pay off balances every month. There are no interest rates or spending limits implemented.  A charge card is a card where you have to pay off the full amount at the end of each month, opposing to credit card, where you only have to pay off at least a minimum fee, and debit card, which just debits it from your account. 

Because 200,000 or more BIN records just can't exist in reality! Most of the data offered by such providers is software-generated; it contains a BIN number and nothing else. These records has no country, no bank information, no other details – this type of data is completely useless for any type of operation.

Why they need it? Just for marketing purposes - showing really BIG numbers "must" impress everyone.

How do they do it? Very simple. BIN ranges for various card brands can be found in Wikipedia, for example. You can get the first number from the range and the last, then and generate a sequential list of numbers. That's it. The purpose of a BIN list is not just to know a brand or country or issuer, but to check if the card really exists. Needless to say, this approach "kills" this possibility.

None of the records in our database are incomplete or computer-generated, and no one else compares with our accuracy.

In the interest of our clients we don't reveal this data to general public. However, if you represent a legitimate organization we can provide you with such information. Contact us with the country and/or industry you are interested in.
