The bank's terms for remote data transmission, effective 5 October 2025.
Terms for remote data transmission
| Conditions | Bedingungen für die Datenfernübertragung, effective 5 October 2025 |
| Open to | Customers who are not consumers |
| Channel | EBICS |
| Order type from 3.0 | The Business Transaction and Format (BTF) counts as the order type |
| Authorisation | Electronic signature, or a signed submission slip where agreed |
| Participants | Users authorise; technical participants exchange data only |
| Limits | The disposition limits agreed with the bank |
| Record keeping | Every file reproducible for 30 calendar days from its execution or due date |

The bank's payee-verification notice and its transfer terms.
Payee verification
| Mandatory since | 5 October 2025 |
| Applies to | SEPA credit transfers and SEPA instant, before authorisation |
| Price | Free for payer and payee |
| Answer time | A few seconds for a single transfer |
| Results | Match · near match, with the account holder's name shown · no match · not possible |
| Bulk file | The order type chosen per order decides opt-in or opt-out |
| Single payment | Checked whatever the order type — the bank is obliged to check it |
| After an opt-in check | The file becomes an order only once the user releases it |
| Opt-out | Non-consumers only; the company carries full liability for the payee data |
| Not possible | Not a current account · payee's bank does not support it · bank outside the EU |
Two rules decide how an automated flow behaves. A file holding a single credit transfer is checked whatever the order type. And after an opt-in check the file becomes an order only once the user releases it.

Dates the bank has announced. What we do about each one is ours.
Upcoming events in our register
OLB withdraws the older SEPA formats, up to version 3.6. Credit transfers and instant payments move to pain.001.001.09, direct debits to pain.008.001.08. The bank publishes the month and no day. .09 is one of the two versions our engine produces, and other banks run on it today.
Foreign payments leave MT101 and DTAZV for pain.001.001.09. We have never produced DTAZV.
Same-day urgent transfers move off pain.001.001.03 to pain.001.001.09 under order type CCU.
MT940 and MT942 end. Account and transaction information comes back only as camt.053.001.08 and camt.052.001.08, both of which we already read.
Address data has to be given hybrid or structured — street, house number, postcode, city and country in their own fields. Canonical input 1.1 has taken those as separate fields since it shipped.
If all of this looks like a lot · it does not have to be
Five steps to a live OLB connection.
You do not need to know what any of the codes above mean. Our setup guide walks you through it one screen at a time.
- 1
Request the agreement from OLB
EBICS starts with paperwork. We draft the email, you send it, and you tell us when it has gone. There is nothing to configure until the bank replies.
- 2
Set up and send your keys
Enter the values from the agreement OLB returns. We already hold the ones that are public, so most of the form is filled in. Then one press generates your three key pairs and sends the public halves.
- 3
Prove your identity on paper
EBICS confirms the key exchange on paper, by design. We print the initialisation letter carrying the fingerprints OLB will check. You sign it by hand and send it.
- 4
Verify OLB and go live
While you wait, we fetch the bank's public keys and check them against the fingerprints it gives you over a separate channel. When that lands, you choose which approval policy governs payments here, and the connection switches on.
- 5
You are now in production with OLB
Payments go out as pain.001 and statements come back as camt. The connection runs unattended from here.
