Payment testing notes for the Netherlands
- Currency: EUR (euro). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card authentication: PSD2 strong customer authentication (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2018/389, in effect since 14 September 2019) applies to customer-initiated online card payments in the EEA; cards meet it through 3-D Secure, with exemptions for some low-risk and merchant-initiated payments. Source
- Card country: Fraud rules often compare the BIN country (NL) with the shopper's IP address and billing address. Use a BIN from the Netherlands for the domestic path and a foreign BIN for cross-border rules.
- Debit vs credit: At 60% debit ranges, the Netherlands is more debit-heavy than 44 of the 62 other countries on this site. Card type matters for surcharges, installment plans and stored-card billing: test each.
- Billing details: postcodes in the Netherlands are 4 digits + space + 2 letters (postcode plus house number identifies an address) (e.g. 1012 JS); phone numbers use +31 — Mobile numbers start with 06 and always have 10 digits (06 xx xx xx xx). Generate Netherlands test addresses.
- iDEAL bank payments are the most common online payment method, so card checkouts usually sit next to it.
Paying online in Netherlands: local methods and gateways
Cards are only part of the picture. These payment methods are popular in the Netherlands and usually sit next to the card form at checkout:
- iDEAL | Wero (bank transfer) — The main Dutch online payment method: a bank redirect payment for Dutch customers in EUR, now co-branded with Wero; every payment is authenticated by the customer. Source
- Klarna (BNPL) — Pay later or in instalments, available to Dutch customers. Source
- SEPA Direct Debit (automatische incasso) (bank transfer) — Debit from a euro IBAN under a signed mandate, common for subscriptions. Source
- PayPal (wallet) — PayPal wallet, available to Dutch businesses and buyers. Source

Frequently asked questions
Can I generate a Netherlands credit card number for testing?
Yes. Every number on this page starts with a real BIN registered to a bank in the Netherlands — by default 520953 (Cooperatieve Rabobank U.A, Mastercard credit). The remaining digits are random and the last one is a Luhn check digit. No bank issued them, so they carry no account and real payments are declined.
Which card networks are most common in Netherlands?
By BIN count in our data: Maestro 49%, Mastercard 17%, Visa 16%, American Express 12%. Debit ranges make up 60% and credit ranges 40%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from the Netherlands start with?
Examples from different banks: 400850 (International Card Services B.V.); 429777 (ABN AMRO Bank, N.V.); 402769 (Worldline). See the Netherlands BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from Netherlands?
EUR (euro). 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.
Is a generated Netherlands card number a real card?
They do not. A generated number only has the right shape; Cooperatieve Rabobank U.A. or any other issuer has never heard of it, so authorization always fails. Real alternatives: a virtual card from a bank in the Netherlands or a wallet such as PayPal. Testing a checkout? Use your gateway’s sandbox test cards.
Which payment methods should a checkout for Netherlands offer next to cards?
iDEAL | Wero: The main Dutch online payment method: a bank redirect payment for Dutch customers in EUR, now co-branded with Wero; every payment is authenticated by the customer. Klarna: Pay later or in instalments, available to Dutch customers. SEPA Direct Debit (automatische incasso): Debit from a euro IBAN under a signed mandate, common for subscriptions.
