Production access needs a sales meeting, a certification call and a paid plan from 1,000 USD a month, and no changelog or maintained SDK was found.\n\n**Enable Banking.** Restricted mode gives live data for your own whitelisted accounts before any contract. No public prices and a minimum monthly invoice.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Belvo\n\n1. Send HTTP Basic with `secretId` as username and `secretPassword` as password to https://sandbox.belvo.com, and switch to https://api.belvo.com only with production keys\n2. Create links through the Hosted Widget with a token from POST /api/token/, which expires after 10 minutes\n3. Read stored data with GET list calls. Each POST retrieval in Brazil counts against monthly Open Finance limits, such as 8 a month per CPF for owners and accounts\n4. Retry 50x responses up to five times from a 3 second base with a factor of two, and don't retry 40x apart from `too_many_sessions`\n5. Send `Belvo-Idempotency-Key` with a UUID when creating a payment intent, and `X-Belvo-Request-Mode: async` on link deletion to avoid the limit of 5 deletions a minute\n\n### Enable Banking\n\n1. Mint one JWT per run with exp under 24 hours; don't reuse a long-lived token across sessions\n2. Test against the Mock ASPSP first; bank sandboxes fail for reasons that aren't yours\n3. Pass the bank's maximum_consent_validity as valid_until, usually 180 days, or you'll be back at the bank sooner\n4. On 429 ASPSP_RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED stop until tomorrow; it's the bank's 4-a-day cap\n5. Follow continuation_key until it's absent to get every transaction\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Belvo or Enable Banking?\n\nBelvo scores 63.5 (B) on agent readiness against Enable Banking's 47.1 (D), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
