banking

I have been exploring and developing an application in Python for mission critical work in the commercial banking arena. Banks are way conservative in selecting new applications. I need real proof of stability and others using. Have looked at the Python site but now I'm hoping this crowd can tell me more. So far I don't have a development bank partner which I will need next stage, so I'm gathering proof and pitch info. All help and comments appreciated. Banca d'Italia (roughly the Italian equivalent of the Fed, except that, since the introduction of the Euro, all countries using euros as their

Do any banks offer data feeds of personal accounts via any form of API? I'm essentially looking to check balances on accounts without logging into their website. I remember reading about a universal banking protocol at some point... and maybe mint.com uses it to access accounts? Does mint.com have a special relationship with each bank, or can I leverage their method? Edit: For my requirements, I'm only interested in accessing my own financial data. user279521 Look up the Open Financial Exchange (OFX) format on the web. That (I believe) is a generic format for the banking industry. badbod99 API

I am writing a program for my intro to C class and keep getting some warnings when I try to compile with gcc. Here is my code: int main () { float balance; float beg_balance; float withdrawal_amt; float deposit_amt; float amount; int total_withdrawals; int total_deposits; int selection; print_greeting (); printf("Let's begin with your beginning balance"); beg_balance = get_positive_value(); do { print_menu (); scanf("%d", &selection); switch (selection) { case WITHDRAWAL: get_positive_value(); balance = withdrawal(balance, withdrawal_amt, amount); break; case DEPOSIT: get_positive_value();

Some (especially bank) password systems require you to enter three (specified) letters out of your password to log in. This is supposed to defeat keyloggers, and possibly wire-sniffing replay attacks (for unencrypted sessions). Clearly, there's no way such a scheme can work using ordinary password hashing, since you'd need to know the whole password to compute the hash. What do such systems commonly store server-side to make this work? Do they store the password in plaintext, or maybe a separate hash of each letter, or what? As you correctly note, standard password hashing schemes won't work

So this question isn't about integrating an existing payment gateway into my site. This is more of a architectural question. I want to build a system similar to Paypal. Now I understand that Paypal offers a lot of features under the roof and I can't implement all of them at once. I want to implement the core functionality of Paypal and other such services. So my question is (rather discussion is) around how would one go about building such a system. Some points to discuss: Handle payments through existing banks. I am guessing that I would need access to local bank protocols to get this. Allow

I have an assignment that requires a bank account to be able to transfer funds from a checking and savings account. The transactions are stored in an ArrayList and set up for the user to specify when to transfer the funds. The bank account class for checking and savings works OK, but the TransferService class I created isn't compiling properly in NetBeans. The hints don't seem to be fixing the errors. I get the error: Transaction is abstract and cannot be instantiated. How can I fix this problem? import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Date; import javax.transaction.Transaction; public
