Official MCP server for IBANgen, the IBAN generator and validator for payment testing.
MCP server that gives AI agents three IBANgen tools:
| Tool | Key needed | What it does |
|---|---|---|
validate_ibans | No (10 IBANs per call, small daily allowance per IP) | Country format, length and MOD-97 checksum. Paid keys add bank, BIC and SEPA Instant / VoP reachability. |
generate_test_ibans | Yes | Synthetic, checksum-valid test IBANs; optional seed and bank targeting. |
lookup_bank | Yes (bank-intelligence plan) | BIC or domestic identifier to registry records with sources. |
Generated IBANs are test data only. A valid IBAN does not prove that an account exists.
Install
pip install ibangen-mcp

The same API is also sold on RapidAPI (IBAN plus US bank account and routing test data).
