Can I buy Crypto with AIB Bank in Ireland?

As at time of writing, Allied Irish Bank (AIB) does not yet offer any native services for their customers to buy or sell crypto through their internet banking platform.

With that said, customers of AIB can still deposit Euros into a regulated cryptocurrency exchange that are appropriately licensed in Ireland, and Europe more broadly.
