How Sydbank is connected
| Channel | Bank Connect, the web service Danish banks share |
| Data centre | Bankdata |
| Registration number | 8079 |
| BIC | SYBKDK22 |
| Part of | AL Sydbank, since 8 December 2025 |
| The agreement | Ordered from Sydbank |
| From the bank | Agreement ID (formerly function ID) and an activation code |
| Certificate | Issued by Bankdata at activation, renewed over Bank Connect |
Sydbank, Arbejdernes Landsbank and Vestjysk Bank became AL Sydbank on 8 December 2025. For now the three still work as three banks technically, and AL Sydbank has given no date for joining their systems. Sydbank therefore keeps its own connection over Bank Connect on Bankdata, under registration number 8079.
Sydbank is a co-owner of Bankdata and follows Bankdata's shared format description for payments, version 1.2. Accounts at Arbejdernes Landsbank connect to BEC instead, not Bankdata: see Arbejdernes Landsbank. AL Sydbank's branches in Germany are connected over EBICS.

Questions
- How do we connect Sydbank to our ERP?
- Over Bank Connect. You order a Bank Connect agreement from Sydbank and receive an agreement ID and an activation code. You enter them in BankConnector and the connection is activated; Bankdata issues the certificate. We already have Sydbank's registration number, 8079.
- Which payments can we send from Sydbank?
- The payment types are domestic account transfer, express transfer (straks), FIK payment, SEPA credit transfer and international payment. Payments go out as pain.001.001.03, and the bank's answers and statements come back as pain.002 and camt. SEPA Instant is not offered yet.
- How far along is BankConnector with Sydbank?
- Supported
- Which data centre does Sydbank run on?
- Bankdata. Bankdata confirms an accepted payment with a positive status and moves a payment dated on a non-banking day to the next banking day.
- Is the bank called Sydbank or AL Sydbank?
- The bank has been AL Sydbank since the merger on 8 December 2025, and the name Sydbank is still in use for a period. The connection is the same: you order the Bank Connect agreement from the bank, and it goes to Bankdata.
- We bank with Vestjysk Bank. What do we do?
- Vestjysk Bank is not a separate bank in our list, because it is part of AL Sydbank. Write to us before you order an agreement, and we will find the right connection with you.
If all of this looks like a lot, it does not have to be
Five steps to a live Sydbank 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
Order Bank Connect from Sydbank
The agreement comes from the bank, not from Bank Connect. The bank will ask which statements you want, and whether payments are approved in its web bank or before they are sent. Our setup guide tells you exactly what to answer.
- 2
Enter the agreement ID and activation code
Sydbank issues an agreement ID and a separate activation code. Those two values are all the setup form needs; we already hold the bank's registration number.
- 3
Activate
One press. We fetch the data centre's certificate, send a certificate request with your activation code, and store the certificate the data centre issues.
- 4
Choose your approval policy
Decide who approves payments before they leave, and the connection switches on.
- 5
Go live with one small payment
Start with one small payment and follow it all the way to your statement. Payments go out as pain.001 and status and statements come back as pain.002 and camt. We alert you well before the certificate expires.
