Interactive Brokers (Nasdaq: IBKR), an automated global broker, today announced the launch of crypto-asset trading for eligible individual investors in the EEA through Interactive Brokers Ireland Limited, which is an authorised crypto-asset service provider in the EEA.

Many European investors face challenges managing multiple crypto apps, understanding unclear fees, or navigating security concerns. Interactive Brokers now offers a solution. Starting today, eligible individual investors in the EEA can trade 11 leading crypto-assets directly on the same platform they already use for stocks, options, futures, currencies, bonds, and mutual funds.

This integrated approach gives clients a unified view of their entire portfolio. With one login, they can manage both traditional and crypto-assets, backed by the control, low pricing, and global reach that Interactive Brokers is known for.

“Our clients want the flexibility to diversify into crypto-assets while maintaining the tools, pricing, and trust they rely on Interactive Brokers for,” said Milan Galik, Chief Executive Officer of Interactive Brokers. “By offering crypto alongside traditional assets on a single platform, clients can manage risk, liquidity, and capital more efficiently across their entire portfolio.”

Clients trading crypto-assets through the Interactive Brokers platform can:

  • Trade crypto-assets 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
  • Access simple, transparent pricing with commissions starting at 0.12%-0.18% of trade value
  • Avoid hidden spreads, markups, or custody fees
  • Place limit orders to control trade execution prices

Through a secure integration with zerohash, Interactive Brokers provides access to 11 leading crypto-assets:

  • Bitcoin (BTC)
  • Ethereum (ETH)
  • Litecoin (LTC)
  • Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
  • Chainlink (LINK)
  • Solana (SOL)
  • Cardano (ADA)
  • Ripple (XRP)
  • Dogecoin (DOGE)
  • Avalanche (AVAX)
  • Sui (SUI)

Crypto-assets trading is available through IBKR’s platform suite, including Trader Workstation, IBKR Desktop, Client Portal, IBKR Mobile, and IBKR GlobalTrader. Clients can access crypto-assets using the same tools and technology they already know and trust.

This launch reflects Interactive Brokers’ commitment to helping investors manage their portfolios more efficiently, whether they are trading equities, exploring crypto-assets, or investing across global markets.

"Interactive Brokers has built one of the most sophisticated global brokerage platforms in the world,” said Edward Woodford, Founder & CEO of zerohash. “We are pleased to be broadening our global collaboration to now include customers from the EEA, unlocking a market of ~450 million people."

zerohash is a regulated digital asset and stablecoin infrastructure provider for financial institutions.
