Connect Targobank to VS Code

This guide gives VS Code read-only access to your Targobank account. You sign in to Targobank once in its own web form, add BankingMCP to VS Code, and ask about balances and transactions. No app, no code.

BankingMCP€5 a month

Short answer

Yes, Targobank works. It is in the bank directory BankingMCP connects through, via XS2A (PSD2). Your assistant gets your balance and transactions, read-only, for €5 a month after a 7-day free trial. Nothing to install. VS Code reads your Targobank accounts through BankingMCP: list accounts, read balances, search transactions. It cannot move money.

Guide: connecting Targobank to VS Code

Two parts, about five minutes: first you share your Targobank accounts with BankingMCP, then you add BankingMCP to VS Code.

Share Targobank with BankingMCP

  1. Create a BankingMCP account and start the 7-day free trial. You add payment details at Stripe, and you pay nothing if you cancel within the trial.
  2. In BankingMCP, search for “Targobank” and sign in to Targobank in its own web form with Benutzername and Passwort. Your banking credentials never reach us.

Add BankingMCP to VS Code

  1. In BankingMCP, add VS Code as an assistant and copy its personal MCP address.
  2. Run MCP: Open User Configuration from the command palette and add the entry shown here.
  3. Start the server from the file or via MCP: List Servers, then use Copilot Chat in agent mode.
  4. Ask VS Code your first question, for example: “What's the balance on my Targobank account right now?”
MCP: Open User Configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "bankingmcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://banking-mcp.com/api/mcp/<your-token>"
    }
  }
}

This address is an example. You get your own after signing up, and it works like a password.

Good to know about Targobank

  • Targobank asks for your username and password – the same as in its app. You approve with easyTAN in the Targobank app.
  • If you share several accounts at Targobank, your assistant sees all of them. You can add more accounts later with one click.
  • Banks ask you to confirm access again after a set period. BankingMCP shows you when the Targobank consent expires; after that you log in once more.

Good to know about VS Code

  • Needs VS Code 1.99 or later. On Copilot Business and Enterprise, an admin has to allow MCP servers.

What you can ask VS Code about Targobank

  • “What's left on my Targobank account after rent and loan instalment?”
  • “How much have I paid towards my Targobank loan this year?”
  • “What did I spend on my credit card last month?”
  • “Which subscriptions are still charging my Targobank account?”

Connecting Targobank through regulated bank access

  • Read-only. Over MCP your assistant only gets read tools: it can list accounts, read balances and search transactions. There is no payment tool in this connection.
  • You log in at Targobank itself. Access runs through finAPI, a PSD2-licensed account information service, and your banking credentials never reach BankingMCP.
  • BankingMCP doesn't keep your balances and transactions; it fetches them for each question your assistant asks. Only account details and an access log, kept for 90 days, are stored.
  • Every assistant gets its own address. Deactivate one and its access to your Targobank account stops immediately.

Questions about Targobank

What is MCP?
The Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude or ChatGPT use outside tools. BankingMCP makes your Targobank account available as an MCP server, so your assistant looks up balances and transactions directly instead of you uploading bank statements.
Does BankingMCP support Targobank?
Yes. Targobank is listed in the bank directory with a XS2A (PSD2) interface, which is how BankingMCP connects. The live check on this page confirms your exact institution.
Do I need to install an app to use Targobank with VS Code?
No. BankingMCP runs in the browser on any computer or phone. You connect Targobank once, then add one address to VS Code.
Does my assistant see my Targobank balance?
Yes, along with your transactions. Your assistant reads the balance when it asks, together with the time Targobank last delivered it.
How up to date are my Targobank transactions?
Your assistant fetches your balance and transactions with every question and gets them as Targobank last delivered them, with a timestamp. If the Targobank consent expires, it only sees the last state until you log in again – and tells you so.
Can I use Targobank together with other banks?
Yes. Connect up to 50 accounts across several banks, personal and business. Your assistant answers across all of them, and the price stays at €5 a month.
What do I need to log in to Targobank?
Targobank's own login form asks for: Benutzername and Passwort. You enter them at Targobank, not at BankingMCP and not in the chat.
Does my assistant see my Targobank login?
No. You log in at Targobank in its own web form. Neither BankingMCP nor your assistant ever receives your PIN, password or TAN.
Do I need programming skills to use Targobank with VS Code?
No. You connect Targobank in the browser and add one address to VS Code. Every assistant has a step-by-step guide.
Can my assistant transfer money from my Targobank account?
No. The connection is read-only and has no payment tool. Payments are planned as a separate feature, where you approve every transfer in your own banking app.
What happens if I want to cut off access?
Each assistant has its own address. Deactivate or remove the one you gave VS Code and it stops working immediately, without touching your other assistants.
