Sygnum Integrates with Bancastato Online Banking, Supporting Swiss Clients in Trading BTC, ETH and 4 Other Assets

Odaily News: Zurich-based crypto bank Sygnum Bank has integrated its regulated cryptocurrency services into the Bancastato online banking system, allowing clients in the Swiss canton of Ticino to buy, hold, and sell BTC, ETH, LTC, and SOL via Bancastato's web and mobile platforms without needing to open a separate exchange account.



Bancastato has become the first bank to offer cryptocurrency trading through Sygnum's application programming interface within an Avaloq software-as-a-service banking environment. Clients can place market orders based on cryptocurrency quantity or dollar value, with Sygnum handling trade execution while Bancastato retains the client relationship, brand, and front-end experience.



Sygnum stated that its B2B platform has provided trading, custody, compliance, and settlement infrastructure to more than 25 banks and international financial institutions, including partners such as Zuger Kantonalbank, Luzerner Kantonalbank, Postfinance, and VZ Vermögenszentrum. Sygnum noted that these collaborations have delivered regulated digital asset services to over one-third of the Swiss population through existing banking relationships.
