The platform will enable direct bank account deposits and withdrawals using the UK’s Rapid Payments Service and the Single Euro Payments Area network. This is expected to make the trading experience on the platform more enjoyable for all investors.

Teana Baker-Taylor, director of Binance U.K., said that with more maturity in the crypto market, Binance is creating more investment options for traders to participate in the crypto market. They are building “products that earn a return per share, like staking and passive savings,” she added.
