For software developers
On this page, you can find information and instructions on the register’s APIs and stakeholder testing.
Documentation
The Documentation page contains the latest versions of the technical instructions for software developers. The instructions will be updated with information on the second stage of the register as the project progresses:
Important instructions
Reporting data to the Positive credit register instructions: what does the reporting requirement mean, what credits have to be reported to the register, what data content is reported on credits, within what deadlines and how.
Sharing information from the Positive credit register page: what data can be requested from the register, meaning what data is disclosed from the register, to whom and for what purposes.
APIs and their use
Lenders report data through APIs. You will need a certificate for reporting data.
Certificates are used for reporting data and using data. There are separate certificates for production and testing.
Stakeholder testing
In stakeholder testing, organisations that are using the register test the reporting and requesting of data.
