Payment data validation also includes another important step in bank validation, the IBAN number to BIC Code conversion ( BIC Codes are managed by SWIFT network ). In short it is the ability to determine the correct BIC code from a given IBAN number.
What is the definition of IBAN? The IBAN consists of up to 32 alphanumeric characters, comprising a country code, two check digits and a long and detailed bank account number used in bank wire transfers. The IBAN structure is defined by the international standard under ISO 13616-1:2007 and check digits are performed using MOD 97 (ISO 7064). The individual countries and formatting are described in the official ISO IBAN registry Examples.
The IBAN checker engine supports 97 total countries and all 37 SEPA countries. Our system can respectively identify 97 distinct data structures and perform IBAN format, check digit and length validations.
