DNB exposes an open banking API built on the Berlin Group NextGenPSD2 standard, covering account information (AIS), payment initiation (PIS) and confirmation of funds (CBPII). Beyond the regulated PSD2 baseline it also offers 3 premium API categories: real-time balances, statement reporting and bulk payments.
Access uses OAuth 2.0 with redirect SCA, over a REST interface. A sandbox is available, though access is not self-service.
The API serves Norway. BankSnipe rates DNB's API maturity 5/5 (Mature), last reviewed 11 Jun 2026.

DNB API: frequently asked questions
Does DNB have a public API?
Yes. DNB publishes regulated PSD2 open banking APIs covering account information (AIS), payment initiation (PIS) and confirmation of funds (CBPII), plus premium APIs beyond that baseline. Registration and documentation live on its developer portal at https://developer.dnb.no.
Does DNB offer an API sandbox?
Yes. Sandbox access is available but not self-service, so you go through the bank to get in.
Which open banking standard does the DNB API use?
Berlin Group NextGenPSD2: the most widely used European open-banking API standard. Two banks on the same standard can still differ in the details, so read the bank's own documentation before you build.
How do you authenticate with the DNB API?
OAuth 2.0, with redirect SCA for the customer consent step. Production access to the regulated endpoints also means registering as a licensed third-party provider with the bank.
Does DNB offer premium APIs beyond PSD2?
Yes. We have recorded 3 premium categories on DNB: real-time balances, statement reporting and bulk payments. These sit above the regulated PSD2 baseline and are the ones corporate treasury teams tend to care about.
Which countries does the DNB API cover?
Norway.
Is the DNB API free to use?
Banks generally do not charge licensed third-party providers for the regulated open banking endpoints, which is the point of the mandate. Premium APIs above that baseline are commercial products priced by the bank. BankSnipe does not track pricing, so confirm it with the bank.
How mature is the DNB API?
BankSnipe scores it 5 out of 5 (Mature). The score counts how many of the four product signals are live: AIS, PIS, CBPII and premium APIs beyond the regulated PSD2 baseline.
