What data you can access

  • Accounts — both personal and business account types are supported.
  • Balances — current and available balance snapshots.
  • Transactions — historical and incoming transaction records with counterparties, amounts and dates.

A single customer consent stays valid for up to 180 days before it needs renewal, so long-lived integrations refresh far less often. Note that a BIC is not published for this bank, so route connections by the SpareBank 1 Sogn og Fjordane selector rather than by SWIFT code.

Privacy by design

open-banking.io runs on a zero-knowledge model: your credentials and data pass through without us retaining copies. The service is certificate-free, removing the cost and delay of managing QWAC/QSEAL certificates yourself while keeping every request bank-grade secure.

Pricing

One flat plan of roughly EUR 3 per month unlocks every supported bank, SpareBank 1 Sogn og Fjordane included — no per-connection fees and no enterprise minimums.
