Obtain Financial Institution / Issuer Name from a BIN
Last updated: November 13, 2025
To obtain the name of the financial institution that issued a debit card, use the Get Card BIN Information resource https://docs.astra.finance/reference/get_v1-bins-bin
Using only the first six digits of a Debit Card, also known as the Banking Identification Number or BIN for short, this resource will return the name of the financial institution (issuer_name) that issued the debit card, along with other important information such as the card type (debit, prepaid, credit, unknown), the interchange category (regulated, unregulated) and more!
