How this service works
Validate BIC/SWIFT code format and identify the bank. Returns bank name, country, branch info.
Output
Returns the bank name, country, branch information, and confirmation that the BIC/SWIFT code is valid and correctly formatted (8 or 11 characters).
Example use cases
Verify counterparty details before international payment
“I'm about to wire funds to a vendor in Europe. Can you validate this SWIFT code COBADEBB and confirm it's a real bank before I proceed with the transfer?”
Resolve banking information from customer records
“We have customer payment details with BIC code BNPADRID. Can you look up which bank this is and what country they operate in so we can verify our records are correct?”
Automate compliance checks for incoming transactions
“I need to check a batch of incoming wire transfers. Can you validate these BIC codes—ICBKUAAU, PBNKUS33, and SGBLSGSG—and tell me which banks and countries they're from to flag any suspicious patterns?”

Use this endpoint when you need to validate a BIC/SWIFT code and identify the associated bank before executing an international wire transfer, enriching payment records, or verifying counterparty banking details.
