VR Bank in Holstein API Access & Open Banking

Reach your VR Bank in Holstein accounts through a single, privacy-first hub. open-banking.io links to VR Bank in Holstein (BIC GENODEF1PIN) under PSD2, covering both business and personal accounts, and keeps every byte encrypted with a key that never leaves your device. It is one of 2,600+ EU and UK banks reachable through the same dashboard — no eIDAS certificate, no bank-specific integration work, no data ever readable by our servers.

How to connect VR Bank in Holstein

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 open-banking.io and set your encryption passphrase. Your cryptographic keys are generated locally, on your own device, so only you hold the private key.
2. In the dashboard, search for VR Bank in Holstein and choose the account type you want to link — business or personal.
3. You are redirected to VR Bank in Holstein's own secure login and consent screen, where you approve access directly with the bank.
4. Your accounts and transactions sync back into your dashboard. The PSD2 consent stays valid for up to 180 days, after which you simply re-approve on the bank's screen.

Because approval takes place on VR Bank in Holstein's own portal, open-banking.io never sees your banking credentials.

Access your data

Once a connection exists, developers can optionally read it programmatically. Open the Developers page, create an API key, and export a credentials.json — this bundles the API key and 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 CLI and SDK only read and sync connections you already made in the dashboard — there is no connect command.

This is the zero-knowledge guarantee in practice: our servers store only your public key, so an API key on its own returns nothing but ciphertext. Without your private key, the data stays unreadable — even to us. All of this runs for roughly EUR 3/month.

Do I need an eIDAS certificate for VR Bank in Holstein?

No. open-banking.io is certificate-free. You connect through the dashboard and approve access on the bank's own consent screen.

Can I link both business and personal accounts?

Yes. VR Bank in Holstein supports both business and personal account types, and you can add each from the dashboard.

Can open-banking.io read my transactions?

No. Data is decrypted only on your device with a key you alone hold. Our servers keep just your public key and never see plaintext.
