This will supplement the existing “5 series” Mastercard BIN range. The new BIN will start with 2, and the full new BIN range will be 222100-272099. The card giant first made the announcement in December 2016, which signaled the start of a new configuration that merchants will need to be prepared to handle. Mastercard recently announced that a new BIN (bank identification number) range for their cards would soon take effect, effectively doubling the number of available Mastercard credit and debit cards worldwide.
