Just a clarification, a credit card number is an iin, pan, and checksum.

Interesting that the post says the term BIN (vs. IIN) isn't commonly used anymore, but it's practically the only thing I've heard them called in the last 10+ years of ecomm dev.

I've seen both. When I wrote the post all the docs from the gateways I had access to called then iin with a historical note on bin. I done have access to those docs anymore though.

Edit: I really need to check when posting from my phone

I don't doubt you, but as an example, the recent notification of BIN/IIN prefix additions for Mastercard uses BIN 19 times and IIN 2 times.

Interesting, maybe I should update that page then.
