Credit card validation in JavaScript is used to make sure that all the numbers entered in the specified credit card number field should be a valid card number. As we know there are a lot of companies that provide credit cards and all these have different formats of credit card numbers. So we have to create different regular expressions for different providers according to card number format. Some of the examples are given below.
Mastercard credit card validation regex
/^5[1-5][0-9]{14}$|^2(?:2(?:2[1-9]|[3-9][0-9])|[3-6][0-9][0-9]|7(?:[01][0-9]|20))[0-9]{12}$/
American Express credit card validation regex
/^3[47][0-9]{13}$/
Visa credit card validation regex
/^4[0-9]{12}(?:[0-9]{3})?$/
Discover credit card validation regex
/^65[4-9][0-9]{13}|64[4-9][0-9]{13}|6011[0-9]{12}|(622(?:12[6-9]
|1[3-9][0-9]|[2-8][0-9][0-9]|9[01][0-9]|92[0-5])[0-9]{10})$/
Maestro credit card validation regex
/^(5018|5081|5044|5020|5038|603845|6304|6759|676[1-3]|6799|6220|504834|504817|504645)[0-9]{8,15}$/

Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<script>
function creditCardValidation(creditCradNum)
{
var regEx = /^5[1-5][0-9]{14}/;
if(creditCradNum.value.match(regEx))
{
return true;
}
else
{
alert("Please enter a valid credit card number.");
return false;
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="mail">
