Volksbank Heuchelheim Open Banking & API Access

Reaching your Volksbank Heuchelheim account data used to mean chasing eIDAS certificates and bank-specific paperwork. open-banking.io removes that overhead: it links your Volksbank Heuchelheim accounts through regulated PSD2 access and hands the readable data straight to you. The service is zero-knowledge and certificate-free — your account information is decrypted on your own device with a key that never leaves it, so no server (not even open-banking.io) can read what flows through. For roughly EUR 3 per month you get one place to view and export everything, whether you hold a business or a personal account at the bank.

How to connect Volksbank Heuchelheim

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

  1. Sign up for open-banking.io and set an encryption passphrase. Your keys are generated locally on your device from that passphrase.
  2. In the dashboard, search for Volksbank Heuchelheim (BIC GENODE51HHE) and choose your account type — business or personal.
  3. You are redirected to Volksbank Heuchelheim's own secure login, where you approve access on the bank's consent screen. A single consent stays valid for up to 180 days before you renew it.
  4. Your accounts and transactions sync back into your dashboard, ready to view and export.

Access your data

Once a connection exists, reading it programmatically is an optional developer step. Open the Developers page, create an API key, and export a credentials.json — this bundles the API key with your private decryption key. From there use the CLI (openbanking accounts, openbanking transactions, openbanking sync), an SDK, or the REST API. Every request carries the X-Api-Key header, and each response is decrypted locally with your own key. The API key alone only ever returns ciphertext, because open-banking.io stores nothing but your public key.

Do I need a certificate or developer account with the bank?

No. open-banking.io handles PSD2 access, so you never register for certificates or a Volksbank Heuchelheim developer program.

Can open-banking.io see my transactions?

No. The architecture is zero-knowledge — decryption keys stay on your device, so only you can read the data.

Does the CLI connect my bank?

No. Connecting is done once in the dashboard via the bank's consent screen. The CLI, SDK, and REST API only read and sync connections that already exist.
