Allica Open Banking API is based on The UK Open Banking Standard which allows regulated Third Party Providers (TPPs) to access Account Information Services (AIS) for customer accounts. Access to these services on behalf of customers is controlled by Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) within Allica apps as part of OpenID Connect authorisation flows.
Allica is an FCA registered Account Servicing Payment Service Provider (ASPSP) who provides access to these services via The UK Open Banking Standard.

We support OpenID Connect authorisation code flow with hybrid response types (code id_token) aligned to the FAPI Advanced Final profile. DCR is supported for onboarding regulated TPPs. Private Key JWT and Mutual TLS client authentication methods are supported per FAPI Advanced requirements.
We recommend that you start off by accessing our Sandbox.
Our Sandbox fully reflects our production environment and provides an easy route to testing out your proposition.
To access the production environment, you must be a TPP authorised by the FCA or passported into the UK. Instructions for accessing our Production APIs are here.
