Deka opens Bitcoin trading to Germany's savings bank network for a €0.99 fee
Deka, the asset manager tied to Germany's main savings bank network, has launched Bitcoin trading for participating banks. Customers pay a €0.99 order fee, a spread, and face restrictions on transfers. For traders, this is a sign that crypto access is spreading into mainstream European banking.
Why it matters
- Bitcoin trading is now available through participating savings banks in Germany.
- Each order carries a €0.99 fee plus a spread, which adds to the cost of trading.
- Restricted transfers may limit how easily customers move funds in and out.
What to watch next
Watch whether more savings banks join the network and whether any transfer rules change.
