Validates IBANs across 89 countries and enriches them with bank details, BIC codes, and compliance data. Checks whether recipient banks are reachable on SEPA rails and screens against OFAC, EU and UN sanctions lists. Supports Swiss QR-bills and structured payment references.

Example request: "Check if this IBAN is valid and whether the bank is under sanctions before I send a payment."

How to connect: Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Paste this into Muse: "Use IBANforge to help me. It is a free service with an MCP server at https://api.ibanforge.com/mcp. It does not need an API key. Ask me before you share anything with it." Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Paid per call in USDC via x402, it costs $0.002 per IBAN instead of $0.005 per validate_iban call; on an API key or a credit pack each IBAN uses one request or credit, the same as one validate_iban call. USE WHEN: the user pastes a list 
- lookup_bic: Resolve a BIC / SWIFT code into the underlying bank: name, country, city, LEI, and registered head-office address (where available). USE WHEN: the user already has a BIC/SWIFT (8 or 11 chars, alphanumeric, e.g., "UBSWCHZH80A", "DEUTDEFF") and asks which bank it belongs to, where 
- check_compliance: Run a pre-flight compliance triage on an IBAN before sending a SEPA / cross-border payment.

USE WHEN: assembling a payment instruction from an invoice, a QR-bill or a remittance advice; whenever a Swiss IBAN and a reference appear together (the pair
- check_swiss_qr_bill: Check a Swiss QR-bill payload, the text a QR-bill's code carries (starts with SPC), rule by rule, each finding citing the SIX document it comes from. USE WHEN: an agent, an ERP or an accounting tool holds a scanned or generated QR-bill and must know before paying or issuing it wh
- check_postal_address: Check a structured ISO 20022 postal address against a payment rail's published address rules, rule by rule, each verdict citing the document it comes from.

- poll_api_key: Collect the API key once a human has approved the request opened by request_api_key. USE WHEN: you have called request_api_key and shown the code to your human. HOW TO CALL IT: leave `device_code` empty to reuse the last request from this session. The server usually waits up to t
