What Credit Card Starts With 4646?
Table of Contents
Want to know what credit or debit card starts with 4646? So did we! Keep reading and we’ll tell you what we uncovered.
Every credit or debit card will have either 15 or 16 total digits. Why not one or the other? That’s because the total number of digits depends on what card network the credit card belongs to. Visa, Mastercard, and Discover use 16 digits while American Express uses 15 digits.
Surprisingly, each of those 15 or 16 digits has a hidden meaning. Not only are these digits unique to you they can also tell us the type of card, the card issuer, and what account the card belongs to. There’s even a digit at the end that’s used to make sure you entered all the other digits correctly.
What Does The 4 in the 4646 Credit Card Mean?
The first digit of the card narrows down the credit card network. You probably know that the largest credit card networks are Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Although they’re the biggest card networks, they’re not the only ones! Besides the big three, there’s also Discover, Diner’s Club, Carte Blanche, JCB, and a few smaller ones.
The card industry calls our first digit ‘4’ a “Major Industry Identifier”. Why is it called that? It’s because the first number tells us which card network the card belongs to.
For our “4646” card the first digit is a “4”. It turns out that if the first digit is a “4” then the card is always a Visa card. The first mystery is solved! A “4646” credit card is always a Visa card! So if your question is if a 4646 is a Visa or Mastercard then your answer is that it’s always a Visa card!
A card number that starts with a “3” would be an American Express credit card, Diner’s Club card, Carte Blanche card, or a JCB card. A “2” or a “5” would be a Mastercard credit card, and a “6” would be a Discover card. It used to be that Mastercard only used a “5” but they also started using a “2” a few years back.
What Do The Rest of The Credit Card’s Numbers Mean?
Now that we know that a 4646 prefix credit card is always a Visa credit card, we’re already partway to solving the rest of the secrets behind the numbers. To solve the rest of the mystery, we’ll need to decipher the “646” digits. 1 digit down and 3 to go!
It turns out that the 2nd through 6th digits of a credit card tell us who the card issuer is and the exact kind of credit or debit card that it is. In credit card industry-speak, these numbers are called the “Bank Identification Number”.
Does it matter that we only have 3 of these 5 numbers – ‘646’? No, it turns out that we can use the 3 digits we do have to solve the rest of this puzzle.

Looking at our results, we now know there are 99 different types of 4646 credit and debit cards issued worldwide.
Since you’ve read this far, we’ll finish this up by letting you know what the rest of the debit card numbers mean. On your 4646 credit card, the 7th to the 15th digits represent the account holder’s account number. That leaves us with one last digit – the 16th.
Interestingly, the 16th digit doesn’t have any special meaning. Instead, it’s a ‘check’ digit that’s used to avoid charging a credit card number that has been entered incorrectly. That’s because it’s always possible to mistype a digit or two when you’re trying to buy something. This ‘check’ digit is used with the “Luhn Algorithm” to verify that you correctly entered the first 15 numbers.
Conclusion: 4646 Credit Card Type? Always a Visa card!
Our results show that there are 100 different types of 4646 credit cards issued worldwide. We also know that every 4646 credit card is a Visa. We hope this credit card information is a helpful resource that satisfies your curiosity. Credit card numbers change, so accuracy is not guaranteed.
