There is a startup in The Netherlands that did exactly this, they are called 'Bunq'[0]. A while back a book has been published how they did this, it is, sadly enough, in Dutch[1]. One of the things that comes clear thanks to the book is that Bunq never wanted to use an additional banking API like another user here said. They wanted their own banking license and not use any kind of gateway via one of the 'old' dinosaur banks.

Hey thank you so much, I really appreciate this. Could you elaborate more on their progress? How did that work out for them? I'll buy the book and get a translator for it. Thank you again!
