BCC Ostuni API Access & Open Banking Data Sync

Reaching account data from BCC Ostuni, the Puglia cooperative bank, no longer means wrestling with certificates or an eIDAS onboarding process. open-banking.io is a zero-knowledge, certificate-free bridge to 2,600+ EU and UK banks, and BCC Ostuni is one of them. You link the account once, and your balances and transactions flow into a dashboard where only you hold the key to read them.

Both business and personal accounts at BCC Ostuni are supported, and a single approval keeps data flowing for up to 180 days before you renew. No published BIC is required at connection time — you select the bank by name.

How to connect BCC Ostuni

Connecting happens entirely in the open-banking.io dashboard, never through code:

  1. Sign up for open-banking.io and set an encryption passphrase. Your keys are generated locally on your own device.
  2. Open the dashboard and choose BCC Ostuni from the bank list, then pick the account type — business or personal.
  3. You are redirected to BCC Ostuni's own secure login, where you approve access under PSD2 consent. Your credentials are only ever seen by the bank.
  4. Once approved, your accounts sync back into the dashboard automatically.

There is no API call, developer redirect, or key involved in this step — it is a straightforward bank-approved authorisation.

Access your data

After the connection is live, developers can optionally read it programmatically. On the Developers page, create an API key and export a credentials.json — this bundles the API key together with your private decryption key. From there use the CLI (openbanking accounts, openbanking transactions, openbanking sync), an SDK, or the REST API. Requests carry the X-Api-Key header, and every response is decrypted locally with your own key. Because open-banking.io is zero-knowledge and holds only your public key, an API key alone returns ciphertext — without your private key the servers can never reveal readable data.

All of this runs at roughly EUR 3/month.

Do I need a certificate or eIDAS credential?

No. open-banking.io is certificate-free; approval happens on BCC Ostuni's own consent screen.

Can the CLI connect my BCC Ostuni account?

No. The CLI and SDK only read or sync existing connections. Linking a bank is done solely in the dashboard.

How long does one approval last?

Up to 180 days, after which you re-approve access from the dashboard.
