Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries API & Open Banking Access

Reaching account data from Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries usually means wrestling with PSD2 certificates and sandbox paperwork. open-banking.io removes all of that. It is a zero-knowledge, certificate-free bridge to 2,600+ EU and UK banks, so you can pull balances and transactions from your Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries business or personal accounts without registering as a licensed provider. Your data is decrypted locally with a key that only you hold — the service never sees it in the clear.

How to connect Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries

Connecting happens entirely inside the open-banking.io dashboard — there is no API call, code, or key involved in this step.

  1. Sign up for an open-banking.io account.
  2. Set an encryption passphrase. Your key pair is generated on your own device, and only your public key ever leaves it.
  3. In the dashboard, pick Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries and choose the account type — business or personal.
  4. You are redirected to Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries's own secure login, where you approve access under PSD2 consent (valid for up to 180 days before you renew).
  5. Your approved accounts sync straight into your dashboard, ready to view.

Because consent is granted on the bank's own screen, your credentials are never shared with open-banking.io.

Access your data

Once an account is connected, developers can optionally read it programmatically. From the Developers page, create an API key and export a credentials.json — this bundles the API key together with your private decryption key. From there use the CLI (openbanking accounts, openbanking transactions, openbanking sync), an SDK, or the REST API. Requests authenticate with the X-Api-Key header, and every response is decrypted locally with your own key. The API key alone only ever returns ciphertext, which is what keeps the model zero-knowledge. Note that the CLI and SDK only read and sync connections you already made in the dashboard — there is no connect command.

All of this runs for about EUR 3 per month, with no certificate fees or provider licensing.

Does open-banking.io store my banking password?

No. You authenticate directly on Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries's consent screen; open-banking.io never receives your login details.

Can I access both business and personal accounts?

Yes. Bopfinger Bank Sechta-Ries (BIC GENODES1BPF) supports both business and personal account types through the dashboard.

How long does access last before I re-authorize?

Each consent stays valid for up to 180 days, after which you re-approve on the bank's screen.
