The Payments Council has also introduced a best practice recommending businesses and banks refresh their reference data weekly; whilst smaller businesses should ensure their data is updated at the very least on a monthly basis.
The sort code, which is a six-digit number, is usually formatted as three pairs of numbers, for example 12-34-56. If money is being transferred across international borders, an international network is used. Our database is searchable on sortcode or branch returning any available information.
The SORT Codes database can be integrated in any software system or used as a standalone reference file for verifying banking transactions.
Whilst every effort is made to provide accurate information, users acknowledge that we accepts no liability what so ever with respect to its accuracy.
