The tool parses these responses to determine whether the card is "live" (can be charged) or "dead" (cannot).

Payment processors issue two types of API keys: publishable keys and secret keys (SK).The publishable key handles front-end operations, while the secret key manages back-end requests, such as processing charges and verifying accounts.

The card is fully functional and successfully processed a micro-charge or authorization hold.
