Card Validator checks whether a card number is valid, identifies the card brand, and flags risk. It runs the Luhn checksum, detects the scheme (Visa, Mastercard, Amex and more), returns the PCI-safe BIN and last 4 digits, flags known processor test cards, and returns a composite risk score.

 Project Readme

Card Validator checks whether a card number is valid, identifies the card brand, and flags risk. It runs the Luhn checksum, detects the scheme (Visa, Mastercard, Amex and more), returns the PCI-safe BIN and last 4 digits, flags known processor test cards, and returns a composite risk score.

The Card Validator API provides a simple, reliable way to integrate card validator functionality into your applications. Built for developers who need production-ready card validator capabilities without the complexity of building from scratch.
