Styx

A Berlin Group NextGenPSD2-compliant XS2A client.

About

The Revised Payment Services Directive (PSD2) is intended to harmonise digital payment transactions within the European Economic Area. In addition to banks, PSD2 also provides many opportunities for third-party service providers (TTPs) to offer innovative services through the payment services provided by banks. Although PSD2 is based on a standard for bank interfaces, there remains considerable scope for implementation. For TTPs, developing and maintaining an XS2A interface is a time-consuming challenge. With the PSD2 XS2A Client Styx we offer TTPs a free and easy solution to interact with the different PSD2 interfaces of banks from Germany and Europe.

Features

• Payment initiation service (PIS)
• Account information service (AIS)
• Confirmation of funds service (PIIS)
• SCA methods (redirect, OAuth2, decoupled, embedded)
