Unlock Core Banking Data for ERP and Accounting Systems

We provide robust, secure API wrappers and protocol analysis for the BGF Bank (БЖФ) mobile application (powered by the Faktura.ru platform). By leveraging OpenData and OpenFinance principles, we enable businesses to automate statement retrieval, sync mortgage payment schedules, and monitor precious metal accounts.

Automated Statement Export — Extract transaction histories from current accounts and deposits directly into 1C:Enterprise or cloud accounting software (like Kontur.Accounting) without manual downloads.
Mortgage & Credit Sync — Query real-time loan balances, upcoming payment dates, and accrued interest to update personal finance dashboards or corporate debt management systems.
SBP Payment Tracking — Listen for incoming C2C transfers via the Faster Payments System (СБП) for instant reconciliation of client or tenant payments.

Data Available for Integration (OpenData Perspective)

Data Type Source / Context Granularity Typical Business Use
Transaction History Main Account / Card Screen Per transaction (Amount, Date, Counterparty) 1C/ERP Reconciliation, Cash flow analysis
Mortgage Details Credit & Loans Module Total debt, Next payment amount & date Debt tracking, automated reminders
Deposit & Gold Accounts Deposits / Metals Screen (Added 2024) Current balance (RUB or Grams), Interest rate Wealth management dashboards
SBP Transfers Faster Payments System Log Sender masked name, phone snippet, amount Instant payment verification for services

Session Initialization (Pseudo-code)

POST /api/v1/bgf/auth
{
  "username": "client_phone",
  "password_hash": "...",
  "device_id": "emulated_android_id"
}
// Returns: { "session_token": "eyJhb...", "expires_in": 3600 }

Querying Mortgage Status

    "amount_rub": 42500.00

Compliance & Privacy

All data extraction is performed strictly under explicit user consent using client-provided credentials. We align our data pipeline architecture with the requirements of the Russian Federal Law No. 152-FZ on Personal Data. Our proxy scripts run on secure servers, ensuring that tokens are localized appropriately and sensitive PAN (Primary Account Number) data is masked in API responses.

Data Flow Architecture

  • 1. Auth Proxy: Our Node.js/Python microservice handles the initial handshake with BGF/Faktura servers, managing SMS OTP intercepts if required.
  • 2. Data Extraction: Scheduled workers fetch JSON payloads mimicking the mobile app (package: ru.ftc.faktura.bgfbank).
  • 3. Transformation: Raw banking data is sanitized and converted into standard OpenBanking schemas.
  • 4. Delivery: Data is pushed via Webhook to the client's CRM/ERP or pulled via our standardized REST API.

Market Positioning & User Profile

BGF Bank primarily serves Russian consumers and SMEs focusing on real estate finance. The user base consists heavily of mortgage holders and depositors seeking stable yields. In recent years, the bank has expanded its demographic by integrating with the Faster Payments System (СБП) and introducing precious metal accounts (2024). The app ecosystem is built on the robust Faktura.ru banking platform provided by CFT, a dominant core banking provider in the CIS region.
