HSBC API Access: Connect HSBC France Accounts

Pulling live figures out of HSBC France by hand is slow work. open-banking.io gives you a single API endpoint that keeps HSBC business account data flowing into your own tools — reconciliation dashboards, treasury models, bookkeeping software — without the usual eIDAS certificate paperwork or per-bank onboarding.

HSBC (BIC HBUKGB4BXXX) is one of 2,600+ European institutions reachable through the same integration, so adding HSBC alongside your other banking relationships takes no extra plumbing.

How to connect HSBC

  1. Create an open-banking.io account and grab your API key.
  2. Call the connect endpoint and select HSBC as the target institution.
  3. Your user authenticates in HSBC's own online banking flow and approves access.
  4. Consent is confirmed and data begins syncing to your application straight away.

What data you get

  • Accounts — business account identifiers, currency and product metadata.
  • Balances — current and available balances, refreshed on demand.
  • Transactions — dated entries with counterparty details, amounts and references for clean reconciliation.

HSBC access here covers business account types. A single customer approval stays valid for up to 180 days before re-authentication is required, so long-lived integrations keep running without constant prompts.

Privacy by design

The platform is zero-knowledge: credentials and account data pass through without being stored or inspected on our side. There are no eIDAS certificates to buy, host or rotate — the certificate-free model removes the heaviest part of PSD2 setup and keeps your compliance surface small.

Pricing

Access starts at roughly EUR 3 per month, with the full 2,600+ bank catalogue included. No enterprise contract, no setup fee — you connect HSBC and pay a flat, predictable rate.

FAQ

Can I connect more than one HSBC account?

Yes. Each authorised account under a customer's consent syncs through the same connection, and you can add further HSBC customers as needed.

How often can I refresh balances and transactions?

You can request fresh data whenever your workflow needs it, within the active 180-day consent window, without re-authenticating each time.

Do I need my own banking licence or certificate?

No. open-banking.io handles the regulated access layer, so you integrate over a plain API with no certificate or licence of your own.
