Western Alliance Bank

Western Alliance Bancorporation (NYSE: WAL) is a Phoenix, Arizona based super-regional bank holding company with roughly $80 billion in assets, operating through its principal subsidiary Western Alliance Bank, an Arizona state-chartered commercial bank and member FDIC that runs regional divisions including Alliance Bank of Arizona, Bank of Nevada, Bridge Bank, and Torrey Pines Bank. It is a commercial- and business-banking focused institution rather than a consumer neobank. Western Alliance runs a real first-party developer portal, the WAB API Developer Portal ("Developer Hub") at developer.westernalliancebank.com, exposing commercial Treasury Management open-banking APIs for balance and transaction information, check images, funds transfers, and stop payments. Access is partner/customer-gated: API specifications are downloaded from the Developer Hub only with WAB-issued credentials, and authentication uses OAuth2 client-credentials (Client ID, Client Secret), a Client Certificate (mTLS), and access tokens across UAT and Production environments. Its APIs are also reachable through payment-platform partners such as Modern Treasury. No public consumer FDX or CFPB Section 1033 data-access API is documented, and no OpenAPI/Swagger is publicly downloadable.

Western Alliance Bank publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Financial-Services, Banking, United States, Treasury Management, and Open Banking.

Western Alliance Bank’s developer surface includes engineering blog, authentication, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, signup flow, and 10 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
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.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
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/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/western-alliance: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
