According to Eric Demuth, co-founder of the broker, the agreement will strengthen the position in France. In December 2020, the company received approval from the local Financial Markets Authority. He has said:

"France is a key market for Bitpanda and this is why we are currently opening up a local office in Paris and building a local team to own the growth in the market."

The company has previously signed a similar deal with Italian fintech startup Fabrick. The APIs from more than 500 local banks are available on the platform developed by the latter.
