US Routing Number Lookup API

What it does

Bank Routing Lookup retrieves bank information associated with a U.S. routing number. Send a 9-digit routing_number as a query parameter and get back the routing record in the API's response body.

Use it when you need to identify the bank behind an ACH or wire routing number before you submit a payment, validate customer-provided banking details, or enrich a finance workflow with routing metadata. The request is simple: one required string field, routing_number, and it must be exactly 9 characters long.

Because the response schema is open-ended, treat the returned payload as a structured routing lookup result rather than a fixed set of fields. That makes this endpoint useful as a lightweight reference check inside onboarding flows, payment forms, or internal finance tools where you only need to confirm a routing number and consume the bank data the API provides.
