# User

At bunq, everything revolves around the **User**—it's the foundation of our app, services, and API. That’s why almost every endpoint you’ll use starts with `/user`.

There are **three types of users**, each with its own endpoints, permissions, and properties:

* **`user-person`** – for individual users (`/user-person`)
* **`user-company`** – for business users (`/user-company`)
* **`user-payment-service-provider`** – for PSD2-certified third-party providers (`/user-payment-service-provider`)

The general `/user` endpoint acts as a smart wrapper over all these types. So when you make a `GET /user` request after opening a session, you’ll receive your specific user ID and type—this is usually one of the first steps in any integration.

#### **👤 `user-person` and `user-company`**

These are regular bunq users with subscriptions. If you're a bunq customer, you'll fall into one of these categories. As a user, you can:

* Create **monetary accounts** (our term for bank accounts)
* Order **cards**
* Make and receive **payments**

These objects work together and have subtypes, which we’ll explain in the next sections.

#### **🏦 `user-payment-service-provider`**

This type of user is for companies certified under **PSD2** regulations. When a company registers a valid **eIDAS certificate**, we create a `user-payment-service-provider` account and return an API key.

These users:

* **Don’t have access to the bunq app**
* Can only operate via the API
* Can act **on behalf of bunq users**, within the scope of their PSD2 role:
  * AISP (Account Information Service Provider)
  * PISP (Payment Initiation Service Provider)
  * CBPII (Card-Based Payment Instrument Issuer)
