BIN
Sponsorship
If you don’t have your own BIN just yet, Wallester can sponsor a BIN for you which allows you to get up and running immediately, rather than having to wait for the long and arduous application process to run its course.
BIN Sponsorship
If you are looking to launch a new financial product with a card component, it is very likely that you will want to work with Visa or Mastercard to make it happen.
To do so, you will need to obtain a Bank Identification Number (BIN) as a necessary piece of the puzzle.
This is the key identification number that is used to track transactions, remit payments, and document activity for regulatory purposes. It is non-negotiable in the fintech sphere.
The challenging part though is that applying for a BIN and obtaining it can take up to 3-6 months, and then additional time shall be needed to launch your product to the market. And all this is assuming that there are no obstacles along the way. This waiting period is excruciating, especially when you have product momentum, and you want to get off the ground running.
Luckily, there is a solution. And it is called BIN sponsorship.
Main idea
The core idea here is that you can work with an already established company like Wallester that has already obtained all the necessary approvals.
Your sponsor can then assign you BINs and account numbers according to your needs, without you having to deal with Visa yourself. By leveraging their existing setup, you can launch your cards much quicker and more efficiently than it would be possible if you were to do it yourself. And without any of the headaches.
