Okra
Okra was an open finance / open banking infrastructure company for Africa, headquartered in Lagos, Nigeria. Its REST APIs let businesses link end users' bank accounts (via the Okra Widget and a per-record "record" object) and then retrieve authenticated banking data - account and identity details, real-time balances, transaction history, and income - plus run KYC verifications (BVN, NUBAN, TIN, RC) and move money through bank-to-bank payments and direct debit authorizations. RETIRED: Okra quietly ceased operations in May 2025 and wound the company down; the API hosts (api.okra.ng, dash.okra.ng, docs.okra.ng, identity-api.okra.ng) no longer resolve and the okra.ng domain now serves an unrelated parked page. This entry documents the historical, now-discontinued API surface, grounded in Okra's official okraHQ/okra-node SDK and archived documentation.
Okra publishes 12 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Accounts API, Auth API, Balance API, and 9 more. Tagged areas include Open Banking, Open Finance, Financial Data, Payments, and Fintech.
Okra’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, and 8 more developer resources.
