Cardium

Live Lookup

Check any card BIN in seconds — see the issuing bank, brand, card type, and country. VISA cards are saved automatically under their country; anything that isn't VISA is flagged so you don't use it.

Enter the first 6 to 8 digits to identify the card issuer, brand, and country.

Verify

Confirm your BINs against the live card network. A BIN is marked Valid when it's found and its country matches — fast, reliable, and fully logged. Add newly found BINs and tag your HITS here too.

Add similar BINs

The API doesn't return the similar-BIN list on this plan. Paste it from the dashboard's Similar BINs box: enter the primary BIN, paste the list (JSON array or comma-separated), and they're saved as New BIN inheriting the primary's country — verify each one individually anytime.

 

Mark BINs as HITS ⚡

Flag one or many BINs as HITS (pinged/live on the VISA server). Enter a single BIN or paste a list (JSON array, comma- or space-separated). New BINs are created under Discovery; existing BINs keep their status/country. Every change is logged to history.

 
 

Records

 

Import

Bring your Visa BIN spreadsheet into Cardium. Drop in an Excel file and we'll load every row — no data left behind.

Import Excel

Required columns: bin, brand, type, category, issuer, alpha_2, alpha_3, country, latitude, longitude, bank_phone, bank_url — matched by name, so a file exported from Cardium re-imports as-is (extra columns are ignored). Replace wipes the table; Append adds to it.

Loads BIN records only. Verification state, discovery links, history and generated cards from an export are not restored — this is a data import, not a full backup restore.

 

Generate Cards

Create unique, Luhn-valid test card numbers from any BIN — for safe payment testing only. These are never real cards.

Generate test cards

Each card gets a random expiry and CVV, Luhn-valid, stored server-side. These are never real cards.

 

Search History

Every BIN search and lookup, logged and searchable — who searched what, when, the result, verification status, source, and whether it was already known (duplicate).

BIN search log

Live BIN lookups, per-row verifications, and AI-assisted searches. Filter and drill in.

 

Admin Control Panel

Connection, database health, team access, data export, and the security audit trail — all in one place. Admin only.

Database

New BINs are discovered from the API's similar-BIN list and stay “New” until individually verified.

Team & access

Invite teammates and set their role. Each new user sets their own password and authenticator app from a one-time invite. Lock-outs after 5 bad codes are cleared here.

 

Export database

Download a live snapshot of every BIN table (bins, discovery, history, non-VISA, generated cards) as an Excel file — all columns, current data. Credentials are never exported.

Security audit log

Recent sign-ins, MFA failures, enrollments, admin actions and more — newest first (last 200 events).
