What is BIN sponsorship?

A BIN (Bank Identification Number) identifies the issuer of a card. BIN sponsorship allows a fintech to launch card products under an issuer’s arrangements, with responsibilities defined for each party.

Who can apply for BIN sponsorship?

Fintech businesses and programme managers planning their own card programme. Each proposal is assessed for feasibility, scheme requirements, compliance and operational readiness.

Is a prepaid card application the same as a sponsorship request?
