About test card numbers
These numbers pass the Luhn algorithm (mod-10 check), which is the same checksum validation real card processors use. This makes them suitable for testing payment form validation, checkout flows, and API integrations.

// faq
- ? Can I use these numbers for real purchases?
- No. They pass the Luhn checksum but are not issued by any bank. Attempting to use them on a live payment processor is fraud and will fail.
- ? Are these the same as Stripe test numbers?
- Not exactly. For Stripe-specific test cases (declines, 3DS), use the numbers in Stripe docs. Our generator is useful for generic Luhn/format validation.
- ? What is the Luhn algorithm?
- A simple checksum that validates most card numbers. It does not confirm the account exists — just that the number is well-formed.
