Local card networks in South Korea
Besides the international networks, South Korea 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.
| Network | About | BINs | Share | Example BIN |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Local brand | domestic-only cards issued by Korean card companies | 2,009 | 44% | 898212 KT World Pass |

Payment testing notes for South Korea
- Currency: KRW (South Korean won). It has no minor unit, so amounts are whole numbers; most gateway APIs treat KRW as a zero-decimal currency (send 1000, not 100000).
- Card country: fraud rules often compare the BIN country (KR) with the shopper's IP address and billing address. Generate numbers with a BIN from South Korea to test the domestic path, and with a foreign BIN to test cross-border rules.
- Debit vs credit: 43% of the BINs from South Korea are debit ranges. If your checkout treats debit differently (fees, installments, recurring billing), test with a BIN of each type from the table above.
Generated numbers only pass format checks: network prefix, length and the Luhn checksum. They are not issued by any bank in South Korea, 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 South Korea credit card number for testing?
Yes. The generator on this page starts every number with a real BIN registered to a bank in South Korea — by default 406703 (BC Card Company, Ltd, Visa 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 South Korea?
By BIN count in our data: Local brand 44%, Visa 19%, Mastercard 16%, UnionPay 6%. Local networks: Local brand (2,009 BINs). Debit ranges make up 43% and credit ranges 57%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from South Korea start with?
Examples from different banks: 406703 (BC Card Company, Ltd.); 400772 (Shinhan Card Co., Ltd.); 407423 (KB Kookmin Card Co., Ltd.); 401787 (Hyundai Card Company, Ltd.). See the South Korea BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from South Korea?
KRW (South Korean won). It has no minor unit, so amounts are whole numbers — many gateway APIs treat it as a zero-decimal currency and expect 1000, not 1000.00. 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.
