What is Belvo?
Belvo is an open finance API for Latin America that allows companies to securely access financial information through our banking, fiscal, and gig products.
How does Belvo work?
Once you implement Belvo, your users will be able to connect their bank, tax, or gig accounts to your app in just seconds. After which, you can retrieve financial information about that user.
To create this connection, your users need to share their online credentials with Belvo. We encrypt these credentials as we receive them and only use them to access the account in read-only mode.

You will need to register a Link before accessing information from that specific end-user like Account information or Transaction details. is created between your app and your user's institution account, you can pull financial data. This includes the accounts in their name, the real-time balance, transaction information, invoices, and so on.
