Validate bank and payment identifiers
Check IBAN, BIC/SWIFT, BBAN and LEI structure, then save selected results to a case.
Choose an identifier type
Open Bank & payment intel from the dashboard drawer or navigation rail. Pro and Agency plans can use this tool. It provides direct validation forms rather than a chat conversation. Review Available credits and Cost per validation before submitting.
- Open the case you want to retain findings in, then enter the dedicated bank tool.
- Choose the matching tab and enter the identifier. Use Example fills the form; Clear resets its inputs.
- Correct any field validation message, then submit once and wait for Validation Results.
- Read the Valid or Invalid badge, extracted fields, and any Validation Errors. Available details differ by identifier type.
| Tab | Input and action |
|---|---|
| IBAN | Enter the IBAN and select Validate to check format and checksum. |
| BIC/SWIFT | Enter an 8- or 11-character BIC / SWIFT Code and select Validate. |
| BBAN | Choose Country, enter BBAN, and select Validate & Compose to produce an IBAN when valid. |
| LEI | Enter a 20-character alphanumeric Legal Entity Identifier and select Validate. |
Understand what validation establishes
The tool checks structure and check digits and may show country, SEPA, QR-IBAN, Test BIC, or country-specification information. A valid structure does not establish account ownership, available funds, or that a payment will succeed. LEI format validation is not a live confirmation of an entity's current registration status.
The Offline Validation badge describes the kind of checks being performed. Use the signed-in Nexus service to submit them; do not assume the page works without a network connection.
Keep the results you need
The dedicated screen does not offer a browsable validation-history table. Save relevant findings before leaving, or use the Bulk workflow's export controls for a batch.
- Review the selected result cards. Results initially select all; use the checkboxes or Select All to adjust the set.
- Select Save to Case to store selected findings in the active case. This action is disabled without an open case or selected results.
- If your plan includes graphs, Add to Graph opens graph selection or creation. Otherwise, follow the displayed plan-access guidance.
