Best practice – For BIN lookup, use an 8-digit version if availableAn 8-digit BIN provides the most detailed and accurate data for card identification and assessment, and is becoming the industry standard. The 6-digit version continues to be used but provides less granular classification that may be ambiguous if 8-digit sub-ranges have been introduced by the issuer.A transaction’s CardInfo.BIN property returns the 8-digit BIN if its available. In the Card object, the Alias only ever reveals the first 6 digits – the 8-digit version should be preferred.
