Description
Tired of those annoying websites that demand a valid card number for sign up (even if you just want to take a look around)? Developing a website and want to test your submission form? This tool generates random "fake" credit card numbers, yet valid according to the check-sum algorithm used to avoid typos. It also allows you to validate or check if a specific card number is valid. If it is, and it is recognized, the program will also tell you the issuer of the card as well.
Generatable/Identifiable cards: Mastercard Visa 16 and 13 digit American Express Diners Club Discover JCB 16 and 15 digit (more to come, and I accept requests via email)
Disclaimer: This app does not and will never generate any Card Security Codes (CSC, CVV, etc...), since they are not algorithmically generatable. Any fraudulent use of this app is, in first instance, morally wrong, and secondly illegal! So just use this app for it's intended purpose.
Permissions justification: Internet - Get ads (to get me going)
Recent changes: Over 400 x 5*!!

So many stupid people rating this app 1 star.....like what did you thought?? You'll get a real card number? Grow up kids. Great app though, works like charm at for me.

Firstly, as I'm not able to respond to the other reviewers - but potentially can reach people who are about to download the app: *This does generate a credit card number, but not a CVV or expiry dates etc or any other track 2 info that would make it usable for online theft*. If the site whose free trial etc you are trying to bypass asks for a cvv or dates just put in anything that fits. If they check with a bank you're dead in the water anyway, but even if they ask for all fields they may only run a Luhn algorithm check, often they just want all the details so they can charge you the second the trial expires, if they don't try to charge a penny upfront for veracity. I reiterate, it is not for making illegitimate purchases online. It is not for buying gold/gems/etc in your favorite games. It is not for theft, as all the above fall under fraud and will result in legal action! As with most things, ignorance is no defense in the eyes of the law and "accidents" where you just "happened" to try to conduct a fraudulent transaction will get your accounts blocked bare minimum, even if no further legal action is taken. This is merely for free trial sites that require card numbers handing out before you have even tried the app/site/service and know little about their motivations or the security your card number will be held under. For those who are privacy or security conscious, or perhaps without a card they can otherwise use. FFS people, read the description of the app at least - if not all the peer reviews.
★★☆☆☆

Good but illegal I love this app but it's still illegal
★★☆☆☆
How am I going to use this for free trials? There's no CVV NUMBER? My most free trials require a CVV. This app is pointlessly.
★★☆☆☆
