What is IE_CBI?

In short

The code that marks the Central Bank of Ireland as the authority behind a payment or electronic money licence.

IE_CBI is the code that marks the Central Bank of Ireland as the authority responsible for payment and electronic money services in Ireland, and it opens the reference recorded against a provider. Avant Money appears as PSD_PI IE_CBI!C129700, Confirmo as PSD_PI IE_CBI!C570624, and Kraken as PSD_EMI IE_CBI!C453020. The reference also carries the category a firm is registered in, so you can see whether the provider is authorised for the service you want to use.
