Frequently asked questions
Which card networks does Equity Bank issue?
In our data Equity Bank, Ltd. has 28 BINs: Mastercard (16 BINs), Visa (11 BINs), American Express (1 BIN). 61% are debit ranges and 39% credit ranges.
What are the first 6 digits of a Equity Bank card?
The first 6 digits are the BIN. Equity Bank, Ltd. BINs include 230027, 447816, 518196; the table above lists all of them. A BIN identifies the bank and card type, never a person or an account.
How do I contact Equity Bank?
The BIN data lists the website www.equitybank.co.ke and the phone number +254202744000. Card networks register these details with the BIN and banks change them over time: for anything about your own card, use the phone number printed on the back of the card or the bank’s official app.
Can I make a real, usable Equity Bank card number from a BIN?
No. A number built from a BIN passes format checks (prefix, length and the Luhn check digit), but no bank issued it, so every real payment with it is declined. To test a checkout use your payment gateway’s sandbox test cards; to pay online without exposing your card, ask Equity Bank or another issuer for a virtual card.
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.
