What is BIN 656179?

BIN 656179 is on the Discover network.

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. The card runs on the Discover network.

Discover is a U.S.-based network whose BINs include 6011, 65 and the 644–649 ranges, with international acceptance via partner networks.

Payment processors read these digits on every transaction: they drive routing decisions, currency handling at checkout, fraud scoring and card-product acceptance rules. BIN 656179 carries no personal information: it maps to an issuing institution and card program, never to an individual account or person.
