What is a SWIFT Code?
A SWIFT code, also known as a Bank Identifier Code (BIC), is a unique code used to identify a particular bank or financial institution in international wire transfers. The code consists of 8 or 11 alphanumeric characters and is primarily used to ensure that the funds are sent to the correct recipient's bank.

The first four characters of a SWIFT code represent the bank or institution code, followed by two letters representing the country code, and two more characters indicating the location code. If an 11-character code is used, it may also contain a three-digit branch code.

SWIFT codes are used to facilitate international money transfers, which involve sending funds from one country to another. The recipient's bank uses this code to ensure that the funds are routed to the correct bank and account.

What is a IBAN?
IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number. It is a unique identifier for a bank account that is used in international transactions. The purpose of the IBAN is to facilitate the processing of cross-border transactions and reduce errors in payment processing.

The IBAN consists of a combination of letters and numbers that identify the bank, the country where the account is held, and the account number itself. The format of an IBAN varies by country, but it typically includes a two-letter country code, two check digits, and a series of characters that identify the bank and the specific account.

The use of IBANs is now widespread, particularly in Europe, where they are a standard requirement for making and receiving international payments. When making an international payment, the sender will typically be asked to provide the recipient's IBAN, along with the recipient's bank's SWIFT code or BIC (Bank Identifier Code).

What is a routing number?
Is a unique nine-digit code used to identify a specific financial institution in the United States. It is used primarily for domestic transactions such as wire transfers, direct deposits, and electronic payments.

The routing number is composed of three parts: the first four digits identify the Federal Reserve Bank processing center for the financial institution, the next four digits represent the specific financial institution, and the final digit is a check digit used to verify the validity of the routing number. The routing number typically appears at the bottom left-hand side of a check, along with the account number and check number.
