Westpac Banking Corporation

Westpac Banking Corporation is Australia's oldest bank and company, founded in 1817 as the Bank of New South Wales, and is one of the country's "Big Four" banks. Headquartered in Sydney, it is a publicly listed company on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX:WBC), not a customer-owned mutual, and operates a multi-brand group that includes St.George, BankSA, Bank of Melbourne, and RAMS. As an authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) regulated by APRA, Westpac is a designated data holder under Australia's Consumer Data Right (CDR / Open Banking) regime and exposes a public, unauthenticated Product Reference Data (PRD) API conforming to the DSB Consumer Data Standards. Consumer and account data sharing beyond product reference data is available only to accredited data recipients through the CDR's authenticated, consent-driven channels.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Westpac Banking Corporation the way a machine reads it — 13 machine-readable artifacts across 9 APIs, 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 — Westpac Banking Corporation scores 51.7/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 51/100 (agent ready). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

APIs 9

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
