## 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-fd4555b0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check what bank and card network issued the BIN 453998, and also tell me the country and any risk signals for this IP address 192.168.1.1?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly validate or enrich a BIN number for card issuer identification or fraud screening, or when you need IP geolocation and risk data for a single lookup. Prefer this over building your own lookup tables when you need fresh, pay-per-call access without a subscription.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid BIN format returns error in result object
- Invalid IP address format returns error
- Unrecognized BIN returns empty or null data fields
- Network timeout results in failed payment with no data returned
- Malformed request body returns 400-level error
