TrueLayer vs Yapily

TrueLayer

FCA and Central Bank of Ireland authorised, holding the AISP and PISP licences itself. No public pricing anywhere on the site or in the docs.

Yapily

llms.txt, llms-full.txt, a no-auth docs MCP server and an OpenAPI file. No public pricing; live access starts with a sales form.

TrueLayer

1. Use auth.truelayer-sandbox.com and api.truelayer-sandbox.com with a separate sandbox client; live credentials don't work there
2. Send the user's IP when they're present, or a bank allows 4 calls a day per account
3. Check the retry column of the Data API error table before retrying; codes marked No need the user or a config fix
4. Set data_access_type to one_time for a single read and skip the 90-day reauthorisation
5. Append .md to any docs URL to get the page as Markdown

Yapily

1. Read llms-full.txt once and cache it; it's the whole documentation in one fetch
2. Add the Modelo sandbox in the Console before your first account-auth-request, or institutions comes back empty
3. Treat a 403 on a data call as a revoked or expired consent and send the user back through authorisation
4. Check the error source field first; USER and INSTITUTION failures won't clear on retry
5. In the UK, call extend-consent with lastConfirmedAt before the reconfirmBy date, or the consent lapses at 90 days
