The new service allows users to buy, sell and hold five popular cryptocurrencies: bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), litecoin (LTC), polygon (MATIC) and cardano (ADA), according to a press release. The cryptocurrencies are available alongside stocks, ETFs and investment funds.

Customers can trade without moving funds to an external platform, keeping all investments in one place under Santander’s umbrella, the bank said.
