A method and system for generating payment credentials are provided. A remotely accessible server receives a request for payment credentials for use in conducting a financial transaction, the request originating from a requesting entity and associated with a transaction amount. The remotely accessible server obtains a raw account identifier, pads the raw account identifier with the transaction amount, and performs a predefined calculation on the raw account identifier padded with the transaction amount to yield at least one check digit. The at least one check digit is incorporated into the raw account identifier to yield a processed account identifier for onward transmission to the requesting entity and for use in conducting the financial transaction. |
