Frequently asked questions
How do I find which bank issued a card from Costa Rica?
Type the first 6 to 8 digits into the box above or the BIN checker: it shows the issuer, network, card type and country. 14 banks from Costa Rica with 10 or more BINs also have a page listing all their BINs.
Which card networks are used in Costa Rica?
By BIN count: Visa 50%, Mastercard 33%, UATP 14%, American Express 2%. 26% of the ranges are debit and 74% credit.
Why do the totals differ (836 vs 710 BINs)?
The dataset holds 836 BINs registered to Costa Rica, but only 710 name the issuing bank; the rest are listed with a network or a processor only. This page counts the ranges with a named issuer.
Can a BIN be turned into a real, usable card number?
No. Numbers generated from a BIN pass format checks but no bank issued them, so real payments are declined. Use your gateway’s sandbox test cards for checkout tests.
A BIN identifies the card network and the issuing institution only. It reveals nothing about an individual card,
cardholder or account, and it cannot show whether a card exists or can be charged. Test numbers generated from a BIN are for
development and QA only and are declined by every real payment system.
