## 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 kiteendpoints-ai-bin-checker-0535d6a0 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you check the BIN 411111 for me and tell me what card network, issuing bank, card type (credit or debit), and country it belongs to?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to quickly look up card issuer and network details from a BIN or first 6 digits of a card number, especially in payment processing, fraud detection, or e-commerce checkout flows where card metadata enrichment is needed without a full card authorization.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized BIN returns empty or error result
- BIN not found in database returns no data
- Malformed input (non-numeric or wrong length) may return validation error
- Rate limiting or payment failure returns 402
