MBH Bank (ex-Takarékbank) API Access | Open Banking

Bring your MBH Bank (ex-Takarékbank) data into any app or workflow through a single European open-banking API. Following the 2023 merger of MKB Bank, Budapest Bank and Takarékbank, MBH is now one of Hungary's largest banks — and open-banking.io lets you sync its business and personal account data programmatically, without wrestling with eIDAS certificates or bank-specific SDKs.

Instead of maintaining a bespoke integration, you authenticate once through MBH Bank's own login and pull structured, read-only data over a clean REST interface. One API, one contract, 2,600+ banks across the EU and UK.

How to connect MBH Bank (ex-Takarékbank)

  1. Create an open-banking.io account and grab your API key.
  2. Call the connect endpoint, selecting MBH Bank (BIC FHKBHUHBXXX) from the institution list.
  3. Redirect the account holder to MBH's secure consent screen to approve access.
  4. Receive an access token and start requesting accounts, balances and transactions.

What data you can access

  • Accounts — identifiers, IBANs and metadata for personal and business accounts.
  • Balances — current and available balances, refreshed on demand.
  • Transactions — dated, categorised transaction history with counterparty details.

MBH Bank supports both business and personal account types. Each consent is valid for up to 180 days, after which the account holder simply re-authorises to keep the connection live — fully aligned with PSD2 strong customer authentication.

Privacy by design

open-banking.io is zero-knowledge: your users' credentials never touch our systems, and data flows through encrypted, tokenised channels you control. There are no QWAC/QSEAL certificates to buy, renew or manage — the certificate-free model removes the single biggest hurdle to going live.

Pricing

Straightforward and predictable: around EUR 3 per month, with no per-call surprises or enterprise onboarding fees. Start small and scale as your integration grows.
