Verification of Payee (VoP) is the EU's mandatory pre-payment name check for SEPA credit transfers. What it is, the dates that matter under Regulation (EU) 2024/886, what payment service providers must do, and where IBAN validation fits.
ibanforge.com is now served by a single Next.js codebase built for AI agents (70%) and developers (30%). New /agents page, OpenAPI reference, and a critical fix that lets agents auto-fall-back to x402 when their free quota runs out.
GET /v1/iban/format — a new free endpoint that runs the mod-97 + structure check without touching the BIC, SEPA, VoP, sanctions, or Swiss BC-Nummer databases. Use it to pre-filter malformed IBANs before paying for the full enrichment.
pip install ibanforge — sync + async Python clients for the IBANforge API, with typed exceptions, automatic x402 fallback when the free quota runs out, and one-line API key generation. Built for fintech and AI agents.
IBANforge gets a redesigned dev-first landing page with structured data, OG images, interactive compliance demo, dual pricing paths, and persistent storage for API keys.
IBANforge now returns SEPA membership, issuer classification, risk indicators, and VoP data with every IBAN validation — plus full French and German language support.
