BIN 540236 — Lookup & Card Details

BIN 540236 is issued by Saudi Awwal Bank, from Saudi Arabia, on the mastercard network, as a credit card.

A Bank Identification Number (BIN, or Issuer Identification Number / IIN) is the first 6 to 8 digits of any payment card. It tells the payment network which institution issued the card, what kind of card it is, and where it was issued. For BIN 540236, that institution is Saudi Awwal Bank in Saudi Arabia. The card runs on the mastercard network. Transactions settle in SAR.

Merchants, fraud teams, ad platforms and developers use BIN data to route transactions, localize checkout, detect chargebacks and decide which card products they accept. BIN 540236 itself is public metadata — it identifies the issuer, not the cardholder.
