Commerce Bank

Commerce Bank is the principal banking subsidiary of Commerce Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ CBSH), a Missouri-based regional bank holding company with roughly $32 billion in assets and dual headquarters in Kansas City and St. Louis. Commerce Bank is a Missouri state-chartered bank and Federal Reserve member, founded in 1865, offering personal, business, commercial, and wealth-management services across the U.S. Midwest. Its API posture is corporate/embedded-banking oriented rather than a fully open public program: it runs a registration-gated external developer portal (developers.commercebank.com) and a CommercePayments developer platform, and delivers ERP-embedded banking via Commerce Connections Direct. Consumer-permissioned data sharing is largely intermediated through aggregators such as Plaid and platforms like Modern Treasury rather than a documented first-party, self-serve open-banking API. No public FDX or CFPB Section 1033 data-access posture is documented, and no downloadable OpenAPI/Swagger is publicly available.

Commerce Bank publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Financial-Services, Banking, United States, Regional Bank, and Payments.

Commerce Bank’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, and 8 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Banking & Open Finance regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
