According to the official website of Israel’s Discount Bank, starting November 26, customers will be able to buy and sell Bitcoin and Ethereum through the bank’s app. The commission is 2% of the transaction amount (excluding currency conversion fees). Custody fees will be waived for the first six months after the service launches, then charged at 0.25% per quarter.
Check the restrictions in the original terms: the service is available only to Israeli residents aged 18 or older who have securities services enabled. It operates within a closed system: you can’t transfer assets in or out to external institutions or private wallets. Trading hours are Sunday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. local time.
What this means for you: a bank opening a direct channel for retail customers is a signal, but being able to buy isn’t the same as having an exchange-like experience. First, work out the costs and restrictions. This is not advice to open an account or buy or sell. If you don’t meet the residency and account requirements, this channel won’t be available to you. If fees or withdrawal rules change, follow the bank’s latest information. Which matters more to you: access through a bank, or the fact that it still doesn’t let you withdraw?
