Which banks in Europe outside the EU offer Web3 business accounts and custody?

A crypto company that wants one provider for banking and for holding its tokens needs both of these. Six parent banks fail. Revolut excludes crypto businesses and blocks crypto on business accounts, PostFinance, BBVA, Zürcher Kantonalbank and Luzerner Kantonalbank have no Web3 business offer, and ClearBank banks crypto firms but holds no crypto for them. Five pass partially: Swissquote and Standard Chartered on the business test, and Wirex, LHV and BCB Group on custody, since Wirex is an e-money firm, LHV keeps company coins locked inside the bank, and BCB Group's Earn product lends stablecoins out.

The banks that pass

BankScoreTypeHealthP2PVerdict
Sygnum15/16Crypto-nativeSolidnoneYes, but only for qualified investors, companies and institutions. Sygnum does not take retail clients.
AMINA Bank15/16Crypto-nativeSolidnoneYes, but only for professional clients and companies. Individuals need CHF 500,000 in assets plus finance experience, or CHF 2 million.
Swissquote15/16NeobankSolidStrictYes, with fenced on-chain flows: crypto comes in only from six named exchanges or your own wallet, and never goes out to an exchange.
Xapo Bank14/16Crypto-nativeSolidUnknownYes. Bitcoin and stablecoins are the core product, though the bank publishes no policy on transfers to exchanges.
Wirex14/16NeobankUnknownStrictYes. Crypto moves freely in and out, but the card cannot buy crypto elsewhere and the old app lost its crypto features in the EEA on 30 June 2026.
Bank Frick13/16Crypto-nativeSolidnoneYes for crypto businesses, intermediaries and wealthy private clients. No walk-in retail.
Bitcoin Suisse11/16Crypto-nativeSolidnoneYes, for people with CHF 50,000 or more. It is a crypto broker and custodian, not a deposit bank.
BCB Group10/16Business bankingWatchnoneYes for crypto businesses and institutions, no for individuals. BCB is a payments and settlement provider, not a bank.
LHV9/16Business bankingSolidRelaxedYes. Crypto trading is built into the Estonian app, and the UK arm banks Coinbase and Bitstamp, but coins cannot leave the bank.
Standard Chartered8/16TraditionalWatchnoneYes for institutions, through spot trading, custody and stablecoins. Retail customers get little beyond the Mox app in Hong Kong.
