Hi there, can you share with me more context?

[burnt lark]

i want to get more info about the card that was used
i want to get the name of the bank that issued it the card object only returns brand and country but not the issuing bank info

[stone smelt]

Do you really need the name of the bank? or you just need the card brand (https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/object#payment_method_object-card-brand)

[burnt lark]

i need the name of the bank to prevent fraud
(i would like to disable free trials for people with virtual banks)

because many people use prepaid cards to signup and never pay

[stone smelt]

OK, then you should use the card.funding (https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_methods/object#payment_method_object-card-funding)

It tells you whether a card is a prepaid card

i checked some of this cards pass as not virtual
(they are generated from a BIN) if you know about this

[stone smelt]

I know BIN, but this info is not surfaced in API level.

[burnt lark]

so there is no way to get this info from the api at the moment?
i found a service that can provide this info but it's paid
is there any reason why stripe don't provide this kind of info?
