2. WHAT IS A BILLING ZIP CODE?

Before understanding what a Billing Zip Code is, you first need to understand the concept of a Zip Code.

2.1. Zip Code

A Zip Code, also known as a Postal Code, is a series of letters and numbers managed and established by the United States Postal Service – the global postal association.

The application of a Zip Code or Postal Code is quite well-known, especially in the transportation of mail and parcels through postal services, ensuring that the shipment reaches the correct area as requested. For example, when you want to send a parcel from abroad to Vietnam, the shipping company will ask you to provide the postal code of the province or city for the destination address of the package.

In Vietnam, the Zip Code / Postal Code, as shown in the table above, currently consists of 6 digits and is issued by the Vietnam Post Corporation (Vietnam Post) in coordination with the Ministry of Information and Communications.

2.2. Billing Zip Code

A Billing Zip Code also serves the function of a zip code but is used in payment processes. A Billing Zip Code can be understood as the address to which, for example, a Credit Card statement is sent. This is typically the main use of a Billing Zip Code. It can also be used by healthcare service providers to protect your privacy and identity.

So, where can you find the Billing Zip Code on a debit card? The address you provide to the bank or other credit institutions for your transaction account will include the Zip Code of your debit card. For example, if you receive mail at the address 6789 ABC Street, City X MN 12345, and this is the address used to open your bank account, the Zip Code of the card would be 12345.

Some banks will check the cardholder’s Billing Zip Code to ensure that they are the rightful owner of the card. This is because only the cardholder would know the billing address information.

Billing Zip Code is not commonly used in the financial or related sectors in Vietnam. Banks or financial institutions typically verify identity using other questions that are more convenient for the customer.

3. WHAT FIELDS USE BILLING ZIP CODES?

In the past, the application of Zip Codes was mainly used in the field of shipping goods and parcels through postal services. Later, with the development of technology, the applications of Zip Codes have expanded to serve various other fields.

So, in which fields is the Zip Code specifically used? Below, TradaFX has compiled a list of some fields that use Zip Codes.
