About Card Validation

This tool uses the Luhn algorithm to validate credit card numbers and recognizes patterns for major card types. All validation is done locally in your browser.

Generated test numbers are valid for testing but cannot be used for actual transactions.

How it works

Four steps.

  1. 01

    Enter a credit card number or generate a test number.

  2. 02

    Get instant validation results and card type detection.

  3. 03

    View detailed error messages if the number is invalid.

  4. 04

    Use test card numbers for development and testing.

What is the Luhn algorithm?

The Luhn algorithm (also known as the "modulus 10" algorithm) is a checksum formula used to validate various identification numbers, including: Credit card numbers Canadian Social Insurance Numbers IMEI numbers National Provider Identifier numbers in the United States

How does credit card validation work?

Credit card validation involves several checks: Length check based on card type Pattern matching for card type identification Luhn algorithm validation Card-specific validation rules

Are the test card numbers real?

No, the generated test numbers are not real credit card numbers. They are: Valid according to the Luhn algorithm Follow correct card type patterns Safe to use for testing purposes Cannot be used for actual transactions

Which card types are supported?

The validator supports major credit card types including: Visa (13, 16, or 19 digits) Mastercard (16 digits) American Express (15 digits) Discover (16 digits) JCB (16 digits) Diners Club (14 digits)
