Open Banking Insights
Open banking, PSD2, and Open Finance, written by the team building Europe's connectivity infrastructure. Industry analysis, customer stories, technical deep dives, and product updates from people working in the space every day.
Enable Banking Changelog | May 2026
This month brought a new deferred payment submission flow that lets your application run checks for fraud prevention or internal compliance before a payment is finalised at the ASPSP. UI widgets also migrated to a new origin, with a January 2027 deprecation timeline worth knowing about.
You'll also find eight new integrations, five extended with new capabilities (card accounts in Italy, decoupled auth in Sweden, PIS at Svea Bank), reliability improvements across more than fifty ASPSPs, and a couple of brand consolidations in the Polish and Spanish markets.
CCD2 Compliance Starts with Data, Not Policy
Most CCD2 discussions focus on policy: which products are in scope, what disclosures are required, and how affordability assessments should be structured. What gets far less attention is the infrastructure underneath those assessments — and why getting that right is the part that actually determines whether you're compliant.
CCD2 Explained: What Lenders, BNPL Providers, and Fintech Companies Need to Know
CCD2 expands the regulatory perimeter for consumer credit significantly, and raises the bar on how creditworthiness assessments must be conducted and documented. This FAQ covers the questions we hear most often, from which lenders are affected and what BNPL providers need to do, to how open banking data supports compliant affordability assessments and what good data infrastructure looks like in practice.
Enable Banking Changelog | April 2026
In April, we added Czech translations to the consent UI, a refreshed open banking integrations list that surfaces pan-European banks across every country they serve, and wider card account support across Italy.
You'll also find six new integrations, reliability and performance improvements across more than fifty ASPSPs, and a note about catching us at the Nordic Fintech Summit.

How We Built an AI Chatbot for Navigating Our Documentation

Using a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) setup, we taught AI to fetch the right answers from our docs, fast, accurate, and with real business value. Here’s how we did it, what we learned, and why we believe AI can make internal knowledge tools both smarter and more human.
