CUSIP lookup
Type a 9-character CUSIP to see the US or Canadian security it identifies, with tickers, exchanges and FIGIs.
Free tool, no sign-up
The 9-character code is checked first: characters and check digit. A valid CUSIP is then looked up and shown with its ticker, exchange code, market sector, security type and FIGIs.
How to use the cusip lookup
- 1
Type the CUSIP
Nine characters, for example 037833100. An 8-character code is missing its check digit.

Copy what you need
Each listing has its ticker, exchange code and FIGIs, each with a copy button.
What the results show
- Name and ticker
- The instrument name and its ticker on that venue.
- Exchange
- The exchange code of the venue. For GCC and other markets with a reference page, it links to the venue's Market Identifier Code (MIC).
- Sector and type
- The market sector (Equity, Corp, Govt, Index and so on) and the type of instrument, such as Common Stock.
- FIGI
- The identifier of the instrument on that one venue.
- Composite FIGI
- Groups the venue listings of the instrument within one country.
- Share class FIGI
- Groups the instrument across countries.
CUSIP and ISIN
A CUSIP has six characters for the issuer, two for the issue and a check digit. The ISIN of the same security is US or CA, then the CUSIP, then one more check digit: 037833100 becomes US0378331005.
The ZagTrader platform looks up new instruments and adds them for you
ZagTrader keeps a single instrument master for every market you trade. Records are matched on standard identifiers, so the same security is recognised whether your team searches by ISIN, SEDOL, CUSIP, FIGI or the local exchange code.
Switch on automatic lookup, and when anyone searches for an instrument the platform does not yet hold, it looks it up by its identifier and adds it to the right market, ready to use. Operators can request a specific instrument by identifier from the instrument screen.
Frequently asked questions
How do I look up a CUSIP?
Type the 9-character CUSIP above and choose Look up. The check digit is verified before anything is sent.
Why does my CUSIP return no result?
Not every security is covered. Private placements and some bonds and funds may not be found even when the CUSIP is valid.
Can I search by company name instead?
Yes. Choose Name search in the type list, or use the security lookup, which detects the type for you.
Security lookupWhy do I get several rows for one identifier?
An ISIN, CUSIP or SEDOL names a security, and the same security can trade on many venues. Each venue listing is its own row, with its own ticker, exchange code and FIGI. Compare the exchange codes to find the listing you trade.
Is it free?
Yes, with no sign-up. The number of lookups per minute is limited so the tool stays fast for everyone; if you go over, the page asks you to wait a minute.
What happens to what I type?
Our code does not store your query. Like any website, our hosting provider keeps standard request logs for a short time. The lookup sends only what you type and the filters you set, through our server, to a security reference service. Answers are kept for a day, with nothing that links them to you, so the same lookup is quick the next time anyone asks.
