Getting Started
New host for developer portal and authorization endpoint:
- It is now possible to use the following host https://w2.web.xs2a.bngbank.nl to reach the developer portal and to redirect the user for authorization;
- This new address no longer prompts the user to select a client certificate;
- For the API itself keep using https://w5.api.xs2a.bngbank.nl as usual;
- The developer portal can still be reached using the https://w5.api.xs2a.bngbank.nl as well as for redirecting the user for authorization to prevent a breaking change;
- Note that when using https://w5.api.xs2a.bngbank.nl the user could still be prompted for a client certificate. The user can of course dismiss this prompt as usual. As it will neither be used in the developer portal nor during authorization;
- The OAuth metadata configuration has been changed to use this new host for the authorization_endpoint and the service_documentation.
Welcome to the BNG Bank Developer Portal. This website contains information about the XS2A (Access to accounts) Interface.
XS2A Interface is part of the PSD2 (Payment Service Directive) initiative of the Berlin Group, a European standards initiative to enhance interoperability and harmonisation between financial service providers.

Certificates
To communicate with the PSD2 APIs, certificates are required. A TLS certificate for the connection (including all intermediate certificates for chain validation) and a signing certificate to sign requests.
