IG Group, one of the largest retail trading platforms in the world, is making its move into European crypto markets. Its subsidiary IG Europe has struck a deal with Austrian digital asset platform Bitpanda to deliver spot cryptocurrency trading to investors across the European Union.
The partnership will tap Bitpanda’s existing infrastructure for liquidity, trading connectivity, and market data.
From the UK to the continent
This expansion follows IG’s launch of spot crypto trading for UK retail clients in June 2025.
IG Group reported £331.2 million in group revenue for Q1 2026. Of that, £2.4 million came from UK spot crypto operations.
