Use this endpoint to validate a card without creating a charge, by submitting raw card data through the secure endpoint. It confirms whether the card is valid and able to transact before you run a purchase.


⚠️

This endpoint is available to PCI-certified merchants only, because it requires submitting raw card data (the CardData object). Non-PCI merchants validate cards through Bamboo's tokenization components instead.


Endpoint

This endpoint validates a card using the CardData object.
