## 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 blackbobs-ai-bin-ip-checker-2f90e147 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check the BIN or IP for me — I want to know which bank issued the card with BIN 411111 and what country it's from?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, pay-per-call BIN or IP lookup without committing to a monthly SaaS subscription. Ideal for fraud detection pipelines, checkout validation flows, or agent-driven identity checks where volume is unpredictable. Prefer this over a dedicated BIN database subscription for low-to-medium lookup volumes.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized BIN returns empty or error result
- Malformed IP address returns validation error
- Private/reserved IP ranges may return no geolocation data
- BIN database may be outdated for newly issued cards
- Payment failure on Base chain if wallet balance is insufficient
