Thank you for your inquiry, John. We’re always interested in learning what products and services our members are interested in. Although we do not have immediate plans to support oAuth, we do take the security of your account very seriously. I have forwarded your inquiry to our development team for additional consideration. In the meantime, you can learn more about how we protect your account by visiting http://www.alaskausa.org/security.

Which is a pity, given the website is the most frequent avenue for interaction for many.

It seems unlikely that banks really care what sites like Mint are doing — but they should! If our only choice is to give our credentials to a site like Mint in order to use it, banks should see this as a red flag and get to work coming up with new ways to keep their clients safe. I guess it’s easier for them to say “ha, that’s why you should never give your username and password out to sketchy people like Mint” instead of actually solving the problem on their end.

Anyway, that’s good to know! Thanks.
