Checkout Bank Data API: IBAN, SWIFT, and ABA

Checkout Bank Data API: IBAN, SWIFT, and ABA

A checkout bank-data API validates the three identifiers a payment form actually collects: IBAN, SWIFT/BIC, and US ABA. On BankDataStack those are three POSTs on one X-API-Key. Official samples: IBAN GB82WEST12345698765432, SWIFT CHASUS33, routing 021000021.

Starter is $49.99/mo (1,000 calls, then $0.002) with a 7-day trial. There is no live MCP host. Docs: bankdatastack.com/docs.
