Parrot Changelog (August 24, 2023)

As of August 24, 2023, we've released the following changes to Parrot v3:

  • Updated the API lookup logic. Previously there were exceptions where the BIN queried did not fall into the min/max range in the API response. Now, the Parrot v3 API ensures that the BIN will fall into the min/max range or the error response will be Card BIN/IIN not found, indicating that Parrot does not have any information on that specific BIN.
  • Updated the shared bin indicator to improve the value of this enhanced data field:
    • When shared_bin = true, it is an indication that the Parrot BIN database has more than one unique range matching the queried BIN. In those instances, you should provide more digits in your search if possible to get a more accurate BIN response.
    • When shared_bin = false, it is an indication that the Parrot BIN database has only one unique range associated with the queried BIN. This is the most accurate response.
