Sallie Mae Bank
Sallie Mae Bank is a Utah state-chartered industrial bank (industrial loan company) founded on November 28, 2005 and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, operating as the FDIC-insured banking subsidiary (FDIC cert #58177) of SLM Corporation (NASDAQ SLM), the publicly traded, S&P 400 consumer-finance company best known as the largest originator of private student loans in the United States. Beyond student and education lending, the bank offers retail deposit products including high-yield savings accounts, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit through salliemae.com. Sallie Mae Bank does not operate a first-party public developer program - there is no developer.salliemae.com portal, no api.salliemae.com host, and no published OpenAPI/Swagger definitions. Consumer account and transaction data is reachable only on a permissioned basis through third-party data aggregators (historically Plaid), and no first-party FDX data-access API or published CFPB Section 1033 data-rights posture could be confirmed. This is an identity-only, aggregator-access record reflecting the honest reality that this institution exposes no public API surface.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles Sallie Mae Bank the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Sallie Mae Bank scores 14.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
