AMINA Bank Joins RTGS.global Payment Network
The Swiss-regulated bank becomes the first on the network to offer both fiat and digital asset services.
Updated on Nov. 3, 2026 in Financial Services
AMINA Bank AG, a FINMA-regulated Swiss bank, has joined the RTGS.global cross-border payment network. Eligible RTGS.global clients can now access AMINA's banking services, starting with CHF and EUR fiat accounts and digital wallets.
Why it matters
The move responds to growing demand from payment service providers and money transfer operators for a single banking partner that handles fiat currency, local payment rails and digital asset wallets. It offers those firms a consolidated option within one regulated framework.
The launch offers CHF and EUR fiat accounts, with USD and GBP accounts scheduled for a later stage that has not been dated. No client volumes, transaction figures or pricing were disclosed, so the scale of uptake remains unknown.
The players
AMINA Bank AG
AMINA Bank AG is a Swiss bank regulated by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) that offers both traditional banking and digital asset services.
RTGS.global
RTGS.global is an operator of a cross-border payment network that connects financial institutions and payment providers across borders.
The details
Eligible RTGS.global clients can access AMINA's Swiss-regulated banking services through the RTGS.global platform, alongside their existing banking relationships. Clients who complete onboarding hold accounts registered under their own business name, and initially the collaboration centers on multi-currency accounts, payment functionality and digital asset wallets.
Timeline
November 3, 2026: AMINA's joining of the RTGS.global network is announced.
A later stage, not yet dated: USD and GBP fiat accounts are scheduled to follow.
Market Landscape
The partnership reflects a broader move by regulated banks to combine traditional fiat accounts with digital asset wallets rather than leaving crypto services to standalone platforms. It positions AMINA alongside other banks seeking to serve payment providers that need both local payment rails and digital asset access.
Payment service providers and money transfer operators gain a single banking partner for fiat accounts, local payment rails and digital wallets, which may simplify their operations. Clients using the service hold accounts under their own business name and manage them through the RTGS.global platform.
The takeaway
For businesses that move money across borders, a single regulated bank offering both fiat and digital asset accounts can reduce the number of separate providers needed. Whether this model scales will depend on the timing and reception of the USD and GBP accounts still to come.
What happens next
USD and GBP fiat accounts are scheduled to follow at a later stage, though no date has been announced for that launch.
