# Credit Card Generator

Create valid test card numbers

Generate fake Credit Card numbers with this online generator tool. You can use these valid credit card numbers in your automated tests, to test payment flows and payment checkouts.

**Credit Card Number**

A credit card number generator is a software tool that employs coding techniques to simulate random credit card numbers. Developers and testers utilize this tool to evaluate the functionality of web pages without resorting to actual credit card information.

These generators apply Luhn's algorithm to produce credit card numbers and associated details. These mock details are then employed as test data when crafting test scripts for web pages. Additionally, individuals can utilize this tool to generate fictitious credit card numbers for online forms, aiding in the testing of credit card processing systems.

## Use Our API to Generate Test Credit Card Numbers

Developers can now integrate our fake credit card number generator directly into their applications or test suites via our public API. This is ideal for automated testing, QA environments and mock data generation.

GET `https://api.testingbot.com/v1/free-tools/fake-credit-card`

Response:

```
{
  "credit_card_number": "4929429829012934"
}
```

The API returns a Luhn-valid fake credit card number in JSON format. You can call this endpoint programmatically to fetch a fresh test number each time. No authentication required.

## What is the mechanism behind a credit card number generator?

- The **Major Identity Identifier** (MII) denotes the initial digit of the credit card number, signifying the category of the credit card provider. When using our credit card number generator tool, you can expect precise MII representation. 
- The **Issuer Identification Number** (IIN) represents the first six digits of a credit card number. This segment serves the purpose of identifying the institution responsible for issuing the credit cards. 
- **Luhn's Algorithm** stands as a validation formula essential for verifying credit card numbers. The TestingBot generator tool leverages Luhn's Algorithm in its backend operations, ensuring the provisioning of authentic credit card numbers, suitable for use in test data with your automated tests. 

## Why use a Credit Card Number Generator?

- Test **payment checkout pages** : Considering the sensitive nature of credit card data and the necessity for testers and developers to employ them frequently during the evaluation of purchase pages or processes, it becomes unsafe to include genuine credit card details in test data. With a credit card number generator, a fake (simulated) credit card numbersclosely resembling an authentic one, makes sure for valid testing while keeping everything secure. 
- Some payment providers supply their own dummy credit card numbers for testing/validation. With our tool, you have access to additional numbers for testing. Our generator is capable of generating thousands of various Visa/American Express and other credit cards. 
- Perform payment gateway testing by inputting the generated credit card numbers, either manually or during an automated test. 

## Is it legal to use the TestingBot Credit Card Generator?

Yes, this is definitely legal as these credit card numbers look like real numbers but cannot actually be used to perform purchases. Please use the generated numbers only in tests, against apps that allow you to perform this type of testing.

## Are the generated credit card numbers safe to use for sensitive transactions?

These generated credit card numbers are primarily designed for testing purposes. We do not recommend using these during any sensitive tests/transactions.

## Can I make purchases using these credit card details?

It is not possible to use these for real purchases, as the data that our generator outputs lacks information for a valid payment, such as:

- A proper expiration date of the card 
- The cardholder's name 
- CVV numbers
