Update regarding V2 Payments API for Swedish customers

Handelsbanken Relaunches Payment API V2

The PIS API version 2 has now been relaunched. This version is identical to the previously released version, with the addition of a new endpoint.

Our Payment API V2 now supports the SEK Credit Transfer endpoint for the new local domestic payment type in Sweden.

In addition, we have introduced a new endpoint for both corporate and private customers: other-bank-domestic-credit-transfer. This endpoint should be used for payments that need to be debited immediately after successfully passing all internal validation checks. We understand that this functionality is important for some Third-Party Providers (TPPs). For more information, please refer to the FAQ for ‘Payments to other Banks’.

Please note that, due to changes to our account offerings, it will no longer be possible to initiate payments to other banks from the account type Allkortskonto.

Important Timeline

We kindly ask you to review the documentation available on our Developer Portal and test your integration in our Sandbox environment.

Please be aware that we will shortly be deprecating PIS API V1 and is scheduled to be decommissioned on the 15th November 2026.

Sandbox FAQs

Where can I find the PSD2 API test data?

The test data for our PSD2 APIs (Account Information API, Card-Account Information API, Payment Initiation API and Confirmation of Funds API) is located in our Technical Guidelines, at the bottom of the page in a section called Sandbox test data

When I created a new test application, I received the ClientID but why did I not get the Client Secret?

You only need the ClientId for testing in our Sandbox environment, the Client Secret is not needed. When you go Live, you also need a valid eIDAS certificate (QWAC) from a Qualified Trust Service Provider (QTSP). To read more about this, check out our page for Live Data Enrollment
