FakecreditcardAbout BIN 679838
BIN 679838 is listed as a Maestro Prepaid debit card issued by R. Raphael & Sons PLC in the Netherlands. Debit cards draw money directly from the cardholder's bank account, so checkouts and gateways often treat them differently from credit cards (fees, holds, recurring billing). Prepaid products are loaded with funds in advance instead of drawing on a credit line; subscription and recurring-billing flows often handle them separately.
R. Raphael & Sons PLC has fewer than ten BINs in our data, so it has no bank page.
The Netherlands has 953 BINs in the dataset; among the 720 that name an issuer, the main networks are Maestro (46%), Mastercard (22%), American Express (17%), and 58% are debit. See the Netherlands BIN list or the Netherlands card generator.

Frequently asked questions
Which bank issued BIN 679838?

Is 679838 a debit or a credit card BIN?
It is recorded as debit, product level Prepaid. Debit cards draw money directly from the cardholder's bank account, so checkouts and gateways often treat them differently from credit cards (fees, holds, recurring billing).
How many digits does a card with BIN 679838 have?
Maestro card numbers have 12 to 19 digits, and the security code is a 3-digit code (not on every card). The first six digits are the BIN, the last digit is the Luhn check digit, and the digits in between identify the account.
Can I generate test card numbers with BIN 679838?
Yes. Open the generator with this BIN to create Luhn-valid numbers with expiry dates and CVVs for testing forms, validation and BIN-based rules. They are test data: not issued by R. Raphael & Sons PLC, linked to no account and declined by real payment systems.
Does a BIN tell me whether a card is valid?
No. A BIN describes a range of card numbers — network, issuer, country and product — not a particular card. Whether a card exists or can be charged is known only to the issuing bank. To check the format of a full number (length and check digit), use the card validator.
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.
