Local card networks in China
Besides the international networks, China has its own card scheme. Local networks matter for testing because their numbers often use prefixes that a Visa/Mastercard-only form rejects or labels wrongly.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| UnionPay | China UnionPay, the domestic network founded in 2002 | 12,973 | 71% | 601382 Bank of China |

Payment testing notes for China
- Currency: CNY (Chinese yuan (renminbi)). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card country: fraud rules often compare the BIN country (CN) with the shopper's IP address and billing address. Generate numbers with a BIN from China to test the domestic path, and with a foreign BIN to test cross-border rules.
- Debit vs credit: 87% of the BINs from China are debit ranges. If your checkout treats debit differently (fees, installments, recurring billing), test with a BIN of each type from the table above.
- Alipay and WeChat Pay dominate online payments; cards are often linked to them rather than typed in.
Generated numbers only pass format checks: network prefix, length and the Luhn checksum. They are not issued by any bank in China, carry no money and are declined by every real payment system — use them for forms, validation and BIN rules, and switch to your gateway's documented test cards for approvals and declines.

Frequently asked questions
Can I generate a China credit card number for testing?
Yes. The generator on this page starts every number with a real BIN registered to a bank in China — by default 519412 (Agricultural Bank of China, Mastercard credit). The remaining digits are random and the last one is a Luhn check digit. No bank issued the number, so it carries no account and real payments with it are declined.
Which card networks are most common in China?
By BIN count in our data: UnionPay 71%, Maestro 8%, Private label 8%, Local brand 5%. Local networks: UnionPay (12,973 BINs). Debit ranges make up 87% and credit ranges 13%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from China start with?
Examples from different banks: 454693 (Bank of Guiyang Co., Ltd.); 404286 (China Construction Bank Corporation). See the China BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from China?
CNY (Chinese yuan (renminbi)). Gateway APIs usually expect amounts in the smallest unit (for example 1050 for 10.50). A card from any country can pay in any currency the merchant supports; the issuer handles conversion.
Will these numbers pass a payment gateway?
They pass format checks — length, network prefix and the Luhn checksum — so they are ideal for testing form validation and BIN-based rules. Gateways in test mode want their own documented test cards for approvals and declines; in live mode every generated number is declined because no bank has issued it.
