Local card networks in Egypt
Besides the international networks, Egypt has its own card scheme. Its numbers often use prefixes that a Visa/Mastercard-only form rejects or labels wrongly, so test them on purpose.
| Scheme | Card numbers start with | Length | Online | About |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Meeza Egyptian Banks Company (EBC), under the Central Bank of Egypt |
Visa/Mastercard BINs (co-badged) | – | Yes | Egypt's national card brand, established in early 2019 and issued by banks such as NBE, Banque Misr and CIB; gateways like Kashier detect it from the card number, support 3-D Secure on it, but reject it for recurring payments. No (domestic-only brand; usable only inside Egypt). Source |

Payment testing notes for Egypt
- Currency: EGP (Egyptian pound). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card country: Geo checks match the issuing country of the BIN (EG) against IP and address. Generate one batch with a local BIN and one with a foreign BIN to cover both outcomes.
- Debit vs credit: At 57% debit ranges, Egypt is more debit-heavy than 41 of the 62 other countries on this site. If your checkout treats debit differently (fees, installments, recurring billing), test a BIN of each type from the table above.
- Billing details: postcodes in Egypt are 7 digits (e.g. 1234567); phone numbers use +20 — mobiles are 10 digits starting with 1 (written 01X XXXX XXXX nationally); Cairo landlines are 2 + 8 digits.

Frequently asked questions
Can I generate an Egypt credit card number for testing?
Yes. Pick a bank from Egypt (the default is Banque Misr, BIN 404896) and the tool builds Luhn-valid numbers on that prefix, with expiry and CVV. None of them is a real card; live payments fail.
Which card networks are most common in Egypt?
By BIN count in our data: Mastercard 52%, Visa 41%, Maestro 4%, Diners Club 2%. Local networks: Meeza (4 BINs). Debit ranges make up 57% and credit ranges 43%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from Egypt start with?
Examples from different banks: 404896 (Banque Misr); 418833 (Arab African International Bank); 401607 (Mashreq Bank). See the Egypt BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from Egypt?
EGP (Egyptian pound). Gateway APIs usually expect amounts in the smallest unit (for example 1050 for 10.50). Also test a foreign-currency charge on an Egypt BIN: the issuer converts it, which some checkouts display differently.
Are these Egypt card numbers real? Can I pay with them?
No. They start with real BINs from banks in Egypt such as Banque Misr, but no bank issued them: no account, no money, no cardholder. Every real purchase, free trial or card check declines them. To pay online, use a virtual or prepaid card from your bank or a wallet such as Meeza Digital (mobile wallets). Testing a checkout? Use your gateway’s sandbox test cards.
