Evje og Hornnes Sparebank Open Banking API Access
Reaching your Evje og Hornnes Sparebank account data no longer means chasing an eIDAS certificate or standing up a PSD2 sandbox. open-banking.io is a certificate-free gateway to 2,600+ banks across the EU and UK, and this Agder-based Eika savings bank is one of them. You link the account once, and both business and personal balances and transactions flow into a dashboard that only you can decrypt.
The key idea is zero-knowledge: when you sign up, an encryption key pair is generated on your own device. open-banking.io's servers hold only your public key, so they can store your synced Evje og Hornnes Sparebank data but never read it. Decryption always happens locally, with a private key that never leaves your control.
How to connect Evje og Hornnes Sparebank
Connecting is done entirely in the open-banking.io dashboard — there is no API call, code, or key involved in this step.
- Create an open-banking.io account and set your encryption passphrase; your keys are generated on your device at this moment.
- In the dashboard, search for Evje og Hornnes Sparebank and choose the account type you need — business or personal.
- You are redirected to Evje og Hornnes Sparebank's own secure login, where you approve access under PSD2. A consent lasts up to 180 days, after which you simply reconfirm.
- Your selected accounts sync back into the dashboard, already encrypted to your key.
That's the whole flow: you approve on the bank's screen, not through any developer redirect.
Access your data
Once the connection exists, reading it programmatically is an optional developer step. On the Developers page, create an API key and export a credentials.json — 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. Requests authenticate with the X-Api-Key header, and each response is decrypted locally with your own key. Without that private key, an API key alone returns only ciphertext. Note there is no connect command — the CLI and SDK only read and sync connections you already made in the dashboard.
Evje og Hornnes Sparebank has no published BIC, so selection is by name in the dashboard. Pricing is roughly EUR 3 per month.
Do I need a certificate or bank agreement?
No. open-banking.io is certificate-free; you only need an Evje og Hornnes Sparebank login to approve consent.
Can open-banking.io read my transactions?
No. It stores data encrypted to your public key and never holds your private key, so only you can decrypt it.
How often do I re-authorise?
Each consent is valid for up to 180 days, then you reconfirm on the bank's screen.
