Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank API & Open Banking

Pulling account and transaction data out of Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank usually means certificates, sandbox registrations and PSD2 paperwork. open-banking.io removes all of that. It is a zero-knowledge, certificate-free gateway to 2,600+ EU and UK banks, so your Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank balances and history land in one place — and only you can read them, because decryption happens on your own device with a key that never leaves it.

Both business and personal accounts are supported, and a single approval keeps data flowing for the full 180-day consent window before you renew.

How to connect Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank

Connecting happens entirely in 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 locally on your device.
  2. In the dashboard, choose Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank and select the account type — business or personal.
  3. You are redirected to Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank's own secure login, where you approve access (standard PSD2 consent).
  4. Your accounts sync back into your dashboard. Done — no certificate, no developer portal.

Access your data

Reading the data programmatically is an optional step you take after connecting. On the Developers page, create an API key and export a credentials.json — this bundles the API key with your private decryption key. From there use the CLI (openbanking accounts, openbanking transactions, openbanking sync), an SDK, or the REST API. Every request carries the X-Api-Key header, and each response is decrypted locally with your own key. The API key alone only ever returns ciphertext.

Because open-banking.io holds only your public key, its servers can never read or decrypt your Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank data. All of this runs at roughly EUR 3/month.

Do I need an API key to connect the bank?

No. Connecting is done in the dashboard by approving on Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank's consent screen. API keys are only for reading data later.

Does Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank have a BIC here?

No BIC is required or listed for this integration — the bank is selected by name in the dashboard.

How long does one approval last?

Up to 180 days. When the window closes, re-approve on Søgne og Greipstad Sparebank's login to keep syncing.
