## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability bin-ip-checker-de74deaf -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check this BIN number 424242 and tell me what card type, issuer, and country it belongs to?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need quick card issuer/network metadata from a BIN prefix or IP geolocation data, particularly for fraud prevention workflows, payment routing, or user verification pipelines. Suitable for per-transaction enrichment at low per-call cost.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid BIN format returns an error response
- BIN not found in database returns empty or null result
- Invalid IP address format causes a 400-level error
- Service unavailable returns 5xx error
