About Open Banking in Australia

What are the Consumer Data Right and Open Banking?

The Consumer Data Right (CDR) puts consumers in control of their data, by giving them the right to share their data between service providers of their choosing.

The CDR is an economy wide initiative that will include many sectors, like energy and telco. On 1 July 2020, the CDR launched in Australia in the financial sector. This is called Open Banking. Regional Australia Bank and Frollo were the two companies that launched a use case on that day.

Open Banking will ultimately give consumers more control over their banking data and how it is used. It enables them to safely share banking data with trusted third parties such as banks, fintechs and mortgage brokers, helping to significantly streamline many processes where financial data is required.

In short, Open Banking offers greater transparency for consumers, making it easier for them to manage their finances and get better deals – while also driving more opportunities for innovation and competition across the finance sector.

Which banks are sharing data in Open Banking?

When Open Banking launched, only the Big Four banks had to enable their customers to share data. Since 1 November 2021, more than 90 financial institutions have data sharing obligations, providing more than 90% market coverage.

Financial institutions sharing data under Open Banking are called Data Holders. For an up to date list of Data Holders and their status, see our Data Holder overview.

How fast and reliable are Open Banking APIs?

Fast and reliable access to financial customer data is crucial for many Open Banking use cases. Unfortunately it’s hard for businesses to check API performance before they go live. It’s why Frollo tracks and publishes API performance on a monthly basis. As Australia’s leading Open Banking intermediary, Frollo is in a unique position to measure performance for all live Data Holders.

Overall, Australian Open Banking APIs are fast and reliable. They deliver data in less than a second with more than 98% reliability.

See the detailed and up to date results by financial institution in our Open Banking API performance monitor.

What kind of accreditation does a business need for Open Banking?

There are a few different ways for a business to offer Open Banking powered experiences to their customers. In addition to ‘Unrestricted Accredited Data Recipient (ADR)’, there are five more CDR access models a business could utilise to access Open Banking data. Which of these is best for your business depends on your use case, your organisation and how strategic Open Banking data is for you.

The six CDR access models are:

Where can consumers use Open Banking?

A few places where consumers can currently use Open Banking:
