## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a quick, low-cost ($0.002) programmatic check of whether a string conforms to the German IBAN (DE-prefix) format, especially in payment pipelines, form validation flows, or data cleaning tasks involving German bank accounts. Prefer this over manual regex checks when you want a maintained, API-backed validation service.
