PayPal (Liechtenstein) API Access via Open Banking
Bringing your PayPal balances and payment history into your own tools no longer means wrestling with merchant SDKs or OAuth scopes you don't need. With open-banking.io you connect your PayPal (Liechtenstein) account through a single unified API and keep your ledgers, reconciliation dashboards, and cash-flow models continuously in sync — the same way you would with any high-street bank.
Whether you run a business account for cross-border invoicing or a personal wallet for everyday spending, the data flows the same way: read-only, consent-driven, and always under your control.
How to connect PayPal
- Sign up at open-banking.io and open the connection wizard.
- Search for PayPal and select the Liechtenstein entity.
- Choose whether you're linking a business or personal account.
- Approve the secure consent on PayPal's own login screen — your credentials never touch us.
- Watch accounts, balances, and transactions populate within seconds.
What data you can access
- Accounts — identifiers and metadata for each linked PayPal profile.
- Balances — current available and cleared amounts, per currency.
- Transactions — historical and incoming movements, ready for categorisation and export.
Consent and coverage
Each authorisation lasts up to 180 days before a quick re-confirmation is required, so long-running integrations stay live with minimal friction. PayPal Liechtenstein publishes no BIC, and none is needed — open-banking.io routes the connection for you across a network of 2,600+ banks and payment institutions spanning the EU and UK.
Privacy by design
We operate on a strict zero-knowledge model: we never see or store your login secrets, and the whole flow is certificate-free, so there are no eIDAS certificates to buy, renew, or manage. You authenticate directly with PayPal; we simply carry the signed, read-only data you've approved.
Pricing
One flat plan of roughly EUR 3 per month covers your PayPal connection alongside every other bank you link — no per-call fees, no enterprise tiers, no surprises.
FAQ
Can I connect both business and personal PayPal accounts?
Yes. Both account types are supported, and you can link as many as you hold under one subscription.
Will open-banking.io ever move my money?
No. Access is strictly read-only — you get data for balances and transactions, never payment initiation.
How often do I need to renew consent?
Your consent stays valid for up to 180 days, after which a brief re-authorisation with PayPal keeps the connection active.
