Developers using the new portal will gain access to APIs across six categories such as account management, peer to peer payments, funds transfer to institutions, Citi rewards, investment purchases and account authorisation.
Additional categories are expected to be added over time, the lender said.
Developers will be offered tools to connect in a sandbox environment, where they can put their ideas to practice.
Citi global consumer banking CEO Stephen Bird said: “Citi’s Global Developer Portal advances our open innovation approach to delivering cutting edge solutions and enabling new streams of value for clients, partners and developers.
