Bitpanda: crypto at Raiffeisen banks in Tyrol

Customers of Raiffeisen banks in Tyrol can now buy crypto through their bank. The technology comes from Bitpanda. It starts with Bitcoin and Ethereum, with more coins planned for later.

What did Bitpanda announce?

Bitpanda described the expansion on 25 June 2026 on its blog. According to the post, Raiffeisen banks in Tyrol have offered access to Bitpanda’s crypto solutions since May 2026. They run on Bitpanda Enterprise, the infrastructure Bitpanda provides to banks.

Tyrol is the fourth region after Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland. Bitpanda calls the Raiffeisen group one of the first traditional banking groups in the EU to offer crypto. CEO Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad says the model is proving its worth in practice, step by step.

What can Raiffeisen customers buy?

Bitcoin and Ethereum at the start. The post names further digital assets for later phases, along with savings plans for long-⁠term investing. There is no timetable.

What does the announcement leave out?

It doesn’t mention fees, limits or custody details, or which Raiffeisen banks in Tyrol are already taking part. Ask your bank.

What does it mean for you?

If you bank with a Raiffeisen branch in Tyrol, you’ll find the offer there. If you prefer to buy directly, you can do that at Bitpanda: regulated under MiCA in Austria, Germany and Malta, with Bitcoin, Ethereum and hundreds of other coins. Buying through a broker comes with a markup on the price, so compare that with your bank’s terms.

Holding crypto in Skrill or Neteller is a different product, covered on the Skrill page. Crypto prices swing widely, and this is not investment advice.
