How Our Validation Tools Work
Card Number Validation
Our card validator uses the Luhn algorithm (also known as the modulus 10 algorithm) to verify the basic structural integrity of credit and debit card numbers. This mathematical formula is used worldwide by financial institutions to validate card numbers.
In addition to the Luhn check, our system:
- Identifies the card issuer (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, etc.) based on the Bank Identification Number (BIN)
- Verifies the appropriate length for each card type
- Detects common input errors and formatting issues
Bank Account Validation
Our account validator checks both routing numbers and account numbers to ensure they follow proper formatting standards and correspond to valid financial institutions.
The validation process includes:
- Verifying routing number format and checksum
- Checking account number length and format requirements
- Identifying the financial institution associated with the routing number
- Confirming support for ACH and wire transfers
What the Results Mean:
A valid result means the number passes format checks but does not guarantee the card is active or has funds. Always confirm with your issuer. For more on fraud prevention, check our blog article on BIN Checkers.

True Validator Blog
🕮 Latest Financial Validation Insights
Welcome to the True Validator blog, where we share expert insights on financial security, validation techniques, and industry trends to help you make safer financial decisions.
Understanding the Luhn Algorithm: The Math Behind Card Validation
The Luhn algorithm, also known as the "modulus 10" algorithm, is a simple checksum formula used to validate various identification numbers, most notably credit card numbers. Developed by IBM scientist Hans Peter Luhn in 1954, this mathematical formula has become the standard for initial card number validation worldwide.
Here's how it works:
- Starting from the rightmost digit (the check digit), move left, doubling the value of every second digit
- If doubling results in a number greater than 9, subtract 9 from the product
- Sum all the digits together
- If the total modulo 10 equals 0, the number is valid according to the Luhn formula
While the Luhn algorithm is excellent at catching common data entry errors, it's important to remember that it only validates the mathematical structure of a card number - not whether the card is active, has available credit, or belongs to the person using it.
"The Luhn algorithm catches approximately 90% of common transposition errors, making it an essential first line of defense in payment processing systems."
BIN Numbers: What They Reveal About Your Credit Card
The first 6-8 digits of a credit card number are known as the Bank Identification Number (BIN) or Issuer Identification Number (IIN). These digits contain valuable information about the card, including:
- Issuing Bank or Institution: The specific bank or financial company that issued the card
- Card Type: Whether it's a credit, debit, or prepaid card
- Card Level: Standard, gold, platinum, or other tiers
- Country of Issue: The country where the issuing bank is located
BIN databases are regularly updated as new banks form, merge, or begin issuing cards. Our validation tool uses current BIN data to provide accurate card type identification and preliminary validation.
Businesses can use BIN information to:
- Detect potential fraud by identifying mismatches between card origin and customer location
- Route transactions to appropriate payment processors
- Apply regional pricing or restrictions
- Gather analytics on customer payment preferences
Bank Routing Numbers: The Backbone of US Financial Transactions
Routing numbers, also known as ABA routing numbers or RTNs, are nine-digit codes used in the United States to identify financial institutions. They were developed by the American Bankers Association in 1910 to facilitate check processing, but today they're used for a wide variety of transactions including direct deposits, bill payments, and wire transfers.
The structure of a routing number tells a story:
- Digits 1-4: Federal Reserve routing symbol
- Digits 5-6: ABA institution identifier
- Digits 7-8: Check digit (calculated using a special formula)
- Digit 9: The final digit is a checksum used for validation
Large banks may have multiple routing numbers based on the state where an account was opened or the type of transaction being processed. For example, Bank of America has different routing numbers for wire transfers versus ACH transactions, even for accounts in the same state.
Our routing number validator checks both the format and the checksum to ensure the number is mathematically valid, then cross-references it with current banking data to confirm the associated financial institution.
Account Number Validation: Beyond Basic Format Checking
While routing numbers follow a standardized format in the US, account numbers vary significantly between financial institutions. They can range from 6 to 17 digits, with each bank implementing its own numbering system. However, there are still important validation checks that can be performed:
- Length Validation: Ensuring the account number falls within the standard 6-17 digit range
- Format Checking: Verifying the account number contains only numeric characters
- Institution-Specific Patterns: Some banks use identifiable patterns in their account numbering
- Check Digit Validation: Some institutions implement their own checksum systems
It's important to note that account number validation alone cannot confirm whether an account exists, is active, or belongs to a specific individual. For actual transaction processing, additional verification through ACH prenote transactions or micro-deposits is typically required.
For businesses processing payments, implementing proper account validation can significantly reduce failed transactions and associated fees. Our validation tool provides the essential first step in this process.
International Card Schemes: Understanding Global Payment Networks
While Visa and Mastercard dominate the global payment landscape, several other major card schemes operate internationally, each with its own numbering patterns and validation requirements:
- American Express: 15-digit numbers starting with 34 or 37
- Discover: 16-digit numbers starting with 6011, 622126-622925, 644-649, or 65
- UnionPay: 16-19 digit numbers starting with 62
- JCB: 16-digit numbers starting with 3528-3589
- Diners Club: 14-digit numbers starting with 300-305, 36, or 38
Each card scheme has its own rules for transaction processing, fees, and chargeback procedures. Understanding these differences is crucial for businesses operating internationally.
Regional card schemes also play important roles in their home markets. For example, Cartes Bancaires in France, RuPay in India, and ELO in Brazil each have significant market share in their respective countries. While our current validation focuses on major international schemes, we're continuously working to expand our coverage of regional payment networks.
Fraud Prevention: How Validation Tools Fit Into Security Strategies
Financial validation tools like True Validator play an important role in comprehensive fraud prevention strategies, but it's crucial to understand both their capabilities and limitations.
What validation tools CAN do:
- Detect mistyped card or account numbers before transaction attempts
- Identify card types for proper transaction routing
- Flag obviously fake numbers that don't pass basic format checks
- Reduce failed transaction fees and customer service contacts
What validation tools CANNOT do:
- Determine if a card is stolen or being used fraudulently
- Verify that an account has sufficient funds
- Confirm the identity of the person using the card or account
- Check if a card is expired or canceled
For comprehensive fraud prevention, validation should be just one component of a multi-layered approach that also includes:
- Address Verification Service (AVS)
- Card Verification Value (CVV) checks
- 3D Secure authentication
- Behavioral analysis and machine learning
- Transaction velocity monitoring
By understanding where validation fits in the security landscape, businesses can implement more effective and balanced fraud prevention strategies.

- The number passes format checks (correct length, proper structure)
- For cards: It passes the Luhn algorithm validation
- For routing numbers: It corresponds to a legitimate financial institution
Important: A "valid" result does not guarantee the card or account is active, has funds, or belongs to you. Always confirm with your financial institution before making transactions.
