Bitpanda Grows Its European Bank Network as Crypto Access Widens

The three developments reflect a strategy that differs from the conventional cryptocurrency exchange model. Rather than relying exclusively on attracting users to its own investment application, Bitpanda is supplying the technology that allows established banks to introduce digital assets through their existing services.

That approach gives Bitpanda access to new distribution channels, although the commercial value of its recent agreements will depend on how many customers ultimately use the products.

Fibank Brings Bitpanda’s Infrastructure to Bulgaria

Bitpanda Enterprise will provide the digital asset infrastructure behind a planned cryptocurrency investment service in the My Fibank mobile application.

The integration is expected to launch in early 2027 and will be available to the bank’s customer base of more than one million people, subject to the eventual product rollout.

According to the official announcement, Fibank will become the first Bulgarian bank to incorporate cryptocurrency investing directly into its mobile banking environment.

Bitpanda will be the sole provider of the crypto asset services, while Fibank will maintain the customer-facing application.

The arrangement allows the lender to introduce another investment category without developing an independent cryptocurrency trading platform.
