Interactive Brokers Q&A [2026]

Kind of crept me out, that glitch (?).

I vaguely remember a while back they had a GB IBAN (but you could do a domestic wire).

Edit: misremembered, iirc someone had reverse engineered the CH IBAN, you prob need a CH IBAN for six wires.

How to Send Money to Your Interactive Broker's account for free

I think I may have just found a way to transfer money to Interactive Brokers for free through PostFinance. I’ve just looked at how BCGE treats IB’s Citibank IBAN - they automatically recognize payment to it as a domestic transfer to BC 89095. That’s why I didn’t get asked stupid questions about SHA/BEN/OUR. Entering a BC number manually in PostFinance UI allows you to enter a domestic payment as well. I’ll learn on Monday how it goes [image]
