IBAN Advanced is the API service designed to instantly verify the validity of an IBAN, retrieve the complete details of the associated bank, and check its reachability within SEPA payment schemes. Thanks to a robust and highly available infrastructure, the API automates bank account verification, eliminates human errors, and ensures the integrity of payment processes.
IBAN Advanced goes beyond simple formal validation by providing a comprehensive set of tools for the secure management of bank account details:
In addition to validation, the service provides complete information about the financial institution, delivering essential data for billing and operational processes:
The first step is to submit a request through the POST/iban-advanced/{iban} endpoint, which starts the validation process.
POST/iban-advanced/{iban}
This is an example request to validate an IBAN:
POST https://trust.openapi.com/iban-advanced/IT60X0306905020000000123456
You can also provide a callback to automatically receive the validation result:
{
"callback": {
"url": "https://your-server.site/iban-callback",
"custom": {
"orderId": "iban-check-789"
}
}
}
POST/iban-advanced/{iban}
The initial response returns the request ID and its current status:
{
"data": {
"id": "69c117af962df6cee50c9525",
"iban": "IT60X0306905020000000123456",
"state": "NEW"
},
"success": true,
"message": "",
"error": null
}
To retrieve the complete validation result, use the GET/iban-advanced/{id} endpoint, passing the request ID returned by the previous call.
GET/iban-advanced/{id}
GET https://trust.openapi.com/iban-advanced/69c117af962df6cee50c9525
GET/iban-advanced/{id}
This is an example of a complete response for a valid IBAN:

"iban": "IT60X0306905020000000123456",
