title: Automatic BIN Range Update/detection service
body: <p>I am currently managing a software estate that stores card bin ranges in a table for card checking.</p>
  
  <p>This currently means that we have to manually update the bin range table on a regular basis to ensure it can cater for new cards.</p>
  
  <p>I am wanting to automate this process, is there an easy way to automatically update the bin ranges or an online API service we can use? I did find: <a href="http://www.binchecker.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.binchecker.org/</a> however it was last updated in 2011 and seems like it has died out.</p>
  
  <p>or is there an easier wayto detect without needing BIN ranges? i have read that the start number determins the card type? I have seen other questions posted here that link to BIN lists (for example the barclaycard pdf, wikipedia) but that still requires manual input.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT <a href="http://www.binchecker.org/" rel="nofollow">http://www.binchecker.org/</a> appears to be an old site <a href="https://www.bindb.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.bindb.com</a> is the new updated site. </p>
