Ep 2 - Connecting to our open APIs

This week’s episode is around the APIs that Starling Bank has made available to the wider world. Why did we decide to open up our banking platform to allow other apps to connect to it? We get into our goals and hopes for our Marketplace for both our customers and partners. Also: what can app developers do via the APIs? And how can they get involved and connect to them? Joined by Starling Chief Platform Officer Megan Caywood and Head of APIs Sam Everington, with your regular host Jason Maude.
