Access Alpha Bank Greece via Open Banking & API

Alpha Bank is one of Greece's largest banking groups, serving retail customers and businesses across the country. If you want a live, programmatic view of your Alpha Bank balances and transactions, open-banking.io gives you PSD2-based access without certificates, eIDAS credentials, or a bank-by-bank integration project. You connect once, and your account data flows into a dashboard that only you can decrypt.

open-banking.io covers 2,600+ banks across the EU and UK, and Alpha Bank (BIC CRBAGRAA) is one of them. Both business and personal accounts are supported, and a single consent stays valid for up to 180 days before Alpha Bank asks you to re-approve it.

How to connect Alpha Bank

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 keys are generated on your own device, so no one else can read your data.
  2. In the dashboard, choose Alpha Bank and select the account type you hold (business or personal).
  3. You are redirected to Alpha Bank's own secure login, where you approve access under PSD2 — you authenticate directly with the bank, never with us.
  4. Once you consent, your Alpha Bank accounts sync into your open-banking.io dashboard and refresh automatically.

Access your data

Reading your data programmatically is an optional developer step you take after connecting. On the Developers page, create an API key and export a credentials.json file — it bundles the API key together with your private decryption key. From there you can use the CLI (openbanking accounts, openbanking transactions, openbanking sync), an SDK, or the REST API directly. Every request carries your key in the X-Api-Key header, and each response is decrypted locally with your private key.

Because open-banking.io is zero-knowledge, our servers only ever hold your public key. An API key alone returns ciphertext — without your private key, the data stays unreadable. Access is certificate-free and costs about EUR 3/month.

Do I need eIDAS certificates to access Alpha Bank?

No. open-banking.io handles the regulated PSD2 layer, so you never register certificates or become a licensed provider yourself.

Can I connect Alpha Bank with the CLI or an API key?

No. Connecting is done in the dashboard by approving access on Alpha Bank's consent screen. The CLI, SDK, and API only read and sync connections you have already made.

Can open-banking.io read my Alpha Bank data?

No. Your data is decrypted only on your device with a key that never leaves it. We store just your public key.
