A self-hosted banking agregator? (alien.top)

Banking agregator can be a little bit scary because you basically give your bank credentials to a third-party.

​

But what if the Third-Party app is actually yours and hosted on your premises?

Is there a such selfhosted and/or opensource project?

​

Thanks!

In Europe there is the PSD2 law with wide spread implementation of mandated APIs by banks.

For PSD2 exists a project named Hibiskus. Its a Desktop tool to manage your finances. It syncs over PSD2 with the bank.

There is also a server version of Hibiskus. It syncronises after a schedule with your bank and provide the data over a well documented REST-Api.

https://www.willuhn.de/products/hibiscus-server/

The project website only exists in german.

I'm running a self hosted combination of hibiscus and firefly III to fully manage my finances with automatic synchonisation.

  1. Hibskus Server syncronise with my bank accounts
  2. Node-Red query's the REST Api and creates a csv file
  3. the csv file is read by the firefly III importer

Not the simplest way, but fully self hosted. I really don't want to provide my bank statements to a 3rd party

That sounds really interesting, I'm looking forward to a tool like that... Are you German? I'm French, I don't speak German, I looked a little at the Hibiscus site but I think it only works with German banks (supporting FinTS), and not with all European banks? Thanks
