Card Attributes

Every payment knows its card.

Brand, type, level, country and issuer are attached to each card payment before it is routed, so your routing and fraud rules can act on them.

What you get

Card intelligence on every payment, with nothing to build.

On every payment

Each card payment is enriched before it is routed. There is nothing to call and nothing to store.

Rules that match on the card

Routing rules can match on country, BIN range, brand and card type, alongside currency and amount.

Fraud signals up front

Prepaid, commercial and country flags reach the antifraud engine before the card is charged.

Country mismatch

Compare the card's issuing country with the customer's IP country and act on the difference.

Credit, debit and prepaid

Treat debit, credit, prepaid and commercial cards differently, from surcharges to subscriptions.

Issuer level detail

See which issuing banks decline you most and send their cards where they approve.

From field to decision

Six digits tell you how to handle the payment.

Every attribute is available to your routing rules and your antifraud policy, before the card is charged.

How it works

From card number to decision.

01

The customer enters a card

As soon as the first digits are known, the card is matched against our BIN range table.

02

The payment is enriched

Brand, type, level, country and issuer are attached to the payment before any processor sees it.

03

Your rules decide

Routing picks the processor and the antifraud policy decides approve, 3D Secure or block.
