A European first: Raiffeisenlandesbank partners with Bitpanda to offer digital asset investment

Bitpanda

By Bitpanda

We’re pleased to announce that Raiffeisenlandesbank NÖ-Wien, which forms part of Austria’s leading banking group, has become the first major traditional bank in the European Union to move into digital assets through a planned collaboration with Bitpanda Technology Solutions.

Since launching our innovative digital Investment-as-a-Service (IaaS) solution, Bitpanda Technology Solutions, we’ve given multiple fintechs and online platforms and their millions of customers the ability to invest — simply and safely. Opening up what has been traditionally seen as a complex and exclusive financial market and making it accessible to everyone.

Breaking new ground

In what’s a first among traditional banks in the EU, RLB NÖ-Wien is set to become a pioneer with its plans to include cryptocurrencies and other asset classes in its digital investment offering.

All this will be made possible via Bitpanda’s cutting-edge API-driven and fully secure ISO 271001-certified infrastructure, and will come complete with the look and feel of Raiffeisen’s iconic branding — their design, our technology.

Traditional banking, meet your digital future

Based in Vienna, RLB NÖ-Wien has always had a forward-thinking approach to modern regional and commercial banking services. And, just like Bitpanda, they have a clear goal and vision: to help their customers to take their financial future into their own hands.

By committing to future collaboration with Bitpanda and the possible implementation of stocks* and ETFs, crypto, commodities* and precious metals as part of its offering — all from as little as just €1 — they’re continuing to help their customers to reach their financial ambitions.

The key to unlocking safe & simple trading

By capitalising from Bitpanda’s 9 years of hard-won trading experience, fintechs, traditional banks, and online platforms can provide a swift and easy route to meet the rising demand for modern investing solutions. 

The alternative? Starting from scratch and going alone often leads to high costs and huge gaps in time. Coupled with how fast our industry moves, these products will likely be outdated before launch. Instead, by partnering with Bitpanda, financial institutions like RLB NÖ-Wien are able to hand-pick from our extensive range of asset classes and bring them to their audience fast, all complete with the look and feel of their brand.

How Bitpanda Tech can evolve your business

So far via Bitpanda Technology Services, German digital bank N26, German cloud banking platform Mambu, UK fintech Plum, Italian neobank Hype and more have all successfully introduced a dependable investment platform that meets the highest regulatory standards to their customers.

If you're looking to offer your customers a secure, user-friendly and state-of-the-art trading solution within as little as three months. Let’s talk!
