Quickstart

Get started with Edge in three steps: create an account, get your API key, and make your first API call.

1. Create an account

Sign up at app.edge.bh. You’ll get 500 free credits — no credit card required. Once signed up, you’ll be prompted to create an organization. All API keys, credits, and usage are scoped to your organization.

2. Get your API key

Go to API Keys in your dashboard and click Create API Key. Give it a name and optionally set an expiration date.

Your API key is shown once on creation. Copy it immediately and store it securely — you won’t be able to see it again.

Your key will look like: sk_live_abc123...

3. Make your first API call

Validate an IBAN with a single request:

curl -X GET "https://api.edge.bh/api/v1/services/iban/validate/GB29NWBK60161331926819" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_key_here"

const response = await fetch(
  "https://api.edge.bh/api/v1/services/iban/validate/GB29NWBK60161331926819",
  {
    headers: {
      "Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_your_key_here",
    },
  }
);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.edge.bh/api/v1/services/iban/validate/GB29NWBK60161331926819",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_your_key_here"}
)
print(response.json())

$response = Http::withHeaders([
    'Authorization' => 'Bearer sk_live_your_key_here',
])->get('https://api.edge.bh/api/v1/services/iban/validate/GB29NWBK60161331926819');

$data = $response->json();

Response:

  "iban": "GB29NWBK60161331926819",
  "bank_data": {
    "bic": "NWBKGB2L",

  },

}
