Description
Bank Card Checker tells you the Bank or Financial Institution that issued any given credit/debit card by checking its huge internal database. Additionally it validates the card number.
Do you run a shop or office where you need to take orders that are paid for by credit card over the phone? Need to check that the card information a customer is giving you is valid? With Bank Card Checker you can be sure that a card number is valid and perform extra checks on the card such as the Bank or financial institution that issued it, what country it was issued in, whether it is a company/corporate or personal card and whether it's a credit/debit/visa/mastercard etc.
This incredibly easy to use application lets you view Credit or Debit Card Issuer data on your iPhone as well as validating the card number. The App interrogates its internal database of Card Issuer data to tell you the name of the bank or financial institution, the country the card was issued in, whether the card is a consumer or corporate account and the scheme type (VISA Credit, VISA Debit, Mastercard Credit, Maestro etc) .
The App can determine Card Issuer data from just the first 9 digits of the card number. In order to check that the number is valid then the whole number must be entered.
The internal database has hundreds of thousands of banks/financial institutions records in it ensuring that more than 99% of the worlds organisations are covered. The App will be updated regularly to ensure that the database stays up to date.
The App does not store any entered card data and does not connect to the internet to obtain issuer data.
NOTE: The App does not check card expiry dates. This data is not publicly available.

Ratings and Reviews
Great - Better than I thought!
Ignore the previous review rating the user has not read the description properly. The card is declared as valid if the number is in the Apps database and the number passes the checksum test. The App can't tell validity dates for individual cards - that data is only kept by individual banks and is not publicly available.
I was curious about the coverage of the db in this app - there are card lists for sale on the Internet for $200 or more my company has bought & this is better!
Works and does what it says
Does say weather cards valid or not with nine but it's main goal is to say yes or no valid or invalid rather than what it is when buying things always have your thinking caps on check info and reviews to see if they match what you pay should be what you get so read info and lying and moaning in reviews
Works well
Very handy app for verifying card details.
