Okra
Okra was an African open-finance / open-banking infrastructure company based in Lagos, Nigeria. Its REST API connected applications to Nigerian bank accounts to retrieve authentication details, balances, transactions, identity, and income data, and to initiate bank-to-bank payments, with a Link widget and webhooks. Okra wound down operations in May 2025; this catalog documents the API as it was publicly published.
