Top brokerage Charles Schwab, which oversees more than $12 trillion in client assets, is preparing to launch the Schwab Crypto account, enabling customers to buy and sell Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Schwab’s spot crypto trading is expected to go live later this quarter, according to CEO Rick Wurster, who confirmed the timeline during an earnings call last year.
Schwab plans to introduce the service in phases. Employees will receive early access during an internal testing period. This will be followed by access for invited clients, before the platform becomes available to all customers.

With the new offering, retail investors will be able to buy and sell Bitcoin and Ethereum directly within Schwab’s existing brokerage infrastructure. Schwab says customers will not need a separate crypto wallet or a third-party exchange account.
The service will be operated through Charles Schwab Premier Bank, SSB, a regulated banking subsidiary.
Wurster first hinted at Schwab’s move into spot crypto trading in late 2024, citing the firm’s preparation for a changing regulatory landscape under the Trump administration.
Schwab already offers crypto-linked ETFs and futures. Adding spot trading would broaden its offering and position it to compete with platforms such as Coinbase, Robinhood and Webull by providing more direct access to Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Wurster said Schwab is ready to challenge Coinbase with its upcoming spot Bitcoin and Ethereum trading.
In addition to spot trading, Schwab also plans a stablecoin offering following the passage of the GENIUS stablecoin bill.
