HSBC lanceert PSD2 Developer Portal met uitgebreide API’s

HSBC heeft een portaal gelanceerd dat is ontworpen om externe betalingsaanbieders in staat te stellen producten en diensten voor Europese consumenten en bedrijven te ontwikkelen, zoals vereist door de Tweede Europese Betalingsdienstenrichtlijn (PSD2) en in overeenstemming met de Open Data-specificaties van de Autoriteit Mededinging en Markten.

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–De lancering van HSBC’s PSD2 Developer Portal zal de bank helpen om te voldoen aan de vereisten van de richtlijn, die tot doel heeft de concurrentie te vergroten en de kosten in de Europese betalingsindustrie te verminderen.

De ontwikkelaarsportal van HSBC is een veilige sandboxomgeving waarin ontwikkelaars Application Programming Interfaces (API’s) kunnen testen voor drie services: accountinformatie, betalingsinitiatieven en geldbevestiging. Ontwikkelaars hebben toegang tot nepgegevens van retail- en bedrijfsbetaalrekeningen in het kader van PSD2.

HSBC Launches PSD2 Developer Portal with Expanded APIs

HSBC has launched a portal designed to allow third party payment providers to develop products and services for European consumers and businesses as required by the Second European Payment Services Directive (PSD2) and in line with the Competition and Markets Authority Open Data Specifications.

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– HSBC’s launch of its PSD2 Developer Portal will help the bank to meet the requirements of the directive, which aims to increase competition and reduce costs in the European payments industry.

HSBC’s Developer Portal is a secure sandbox environment where developers can test Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for three services: Account Information, Payment Initiation and Funds Confirmation. Developers can access mock data from Retail and Corporate Payment Accounts in scope of PSD2.

Nadya Hijazi, Global Head of Global Liquidity and Cash Management Digital, HSBC, said: “We are keen to work with multiple parties to develop and test their applications and customer propositions through easy and secure access to the wide range of simulated products and services on our PSD2 Developer Portal. We look forward to working with third party payment providers across Europe to use HSBC’s services and bring new innovation to the market through an intuitive developer ecosystem.”

This testing facility in the secure sandbox environment provides developers with the choice of Open Banking Implementation Entity (OBIE) and STET standards, with work underway to include the Berlin Group standards.

The launch of the PSD2 Developer Portal marks another step towards introducing more digital innovation and competition for payment services while ensuring high levels of security. It is anticipated that the changes will lead to increased customer choice and confidence in using Account Information Services and Payment Initiation Services, when consenting to share their financial data.
