Our take

PSD2 legislation allows businesses to develop open banking services and access data from financial institutions to assess the risk of financial fraud. Whilst this technology is available to any UK business, the required specialized fintech programming assistance is expensive, convoluted, and difficult to learn.

Yolt provides API tools that allow businesses to integrate open banking services into their financial infrastructure, providing frameworks for open banking Payment Initiation Services (PIS) and Account Information Services (AIS). The combination of these services allows businesses to allow their customers to purchase directly through their webpages and applications, whilst the business accesses account data to facilitate smart financial decisions, assess risk, and reduce the likelihood of fraud.

Whilst PSD2 legislation for open banking has been present for many years, Yolt has simplified the development, maintenance and deployment of open banking financial tools by developing an API dedicated to the concept. The company claims to have the greatest number of API connections to European banks with over 600 connections and coverage of over 80% of bank accounts in supported countries.
