Do you want to know what type of credit card starts with 4246? So did we, and we have the results for every 4246 credit card type.

Every credit card has 15 or 16 digits, which might seem like a random string of digits to you, but they are a unique string of numbers. Besides uniquely identifying the cardholder, the digits tell us the type of card, the card issuer, and the individual account. The last digit of the card number, called a check digit, is used to verify that you correctly entered the first 14 or 15 digits of a credit card number. Rather than being a random string of digits, credit card numbers have a large amount of valuable data contained in them.

What Type of Credit Card Starts With 4246

The first digit of the card, which is 4 in our case, indicates the credit card network. The first number on a credit card is called the Major Industry Identifier (MII) by the card industry. It tells us which card network the card belongs to. Since a ‘4’ MII digit always corresponds with a Visa card, a 4246 credit card prefix means it is a Visa card!

If the first digit is a 3 it is an American Express card, Diner’s Club card, Carte Blanche card, or a JCB card. When the first digit is a 2 or a 5, it’s Mastercard, while a Discover card’s first digit is a 6. We’ve solved the first mystery!

What Do The Rest of The Numbers on a Credit Card Starting with 4246 Mean?

Now that we know what type of credit card begins with 4246, we can decipher what the rest of the digits mean. It turns out that the 2nd through 6th digits indicate the card issuer and the type of credit card. Unfortunately, we only have 3 of these five numbers, the ‘246’ in the 4246 four-digit number.

Luckily we can still use the ‘246’ digits that we do have to determine the 4246 credit card issuer. Interestingly, the first 4 or 6 numbers of a credit card are called the “Issuer Identification Number” (IIN), sometimes referred to as the “Bank Identification Number” (BIN number). We can then use those digits of the card number to look up which bank or financial institution issued the card.

How Many 4246 Credit Cards and Debit Cards Are There?

Our results show that there are 100 different types of 4246 credit and debit cards issued worldwide. We hope this credit card information is a helpful resource that satisfies your curiosity. Card numbers change, and banks merge or fail, so accuracy is not guaranteed.

What Do The Final Card Digits Mean? (Primary Account Number and Check Digit)

Now that you’ve gotten this far, you might be curious about what the rest of the digits in your card mean. For most cards, the 7th to the 15th digits are the Primary Account Number (PAN). These eight PAN digits are unique to an account holder and are the most important part of the credit card number. The last digit, called a check digit, is used for verification purposes to avoid charging purchases to the wrong card number.

When typing in your card number, it’s always possible to mistype a digit or two. That’s why the check number, which is the 16th digit, exists. Check digits are used for the detection of typos. The credit card network instantly verifies that everything was entered correctly by running the check digit plus the rest of the preceding portions of the account number through a mathematical formula called the ‘Luhn Algorithm’.
