#REDIRECT The bank offers several advantages, most notably secure storage of [[:Category:Items|items]] and money. Bank Accountaccounts are per-character, and cannot be accessed by anyone else. == Item Storage == Up to 5 items of any size (as long as they can be carried in [[inventory]]) can be stored in a bank. Containers must be empty when deposited. There is no [[decay]] on stored items. A character must designate a [[settlement token]] to use for bank actions. Items can only be deposited and withdrawn at the designated token. (It is not necessary to be a citizen of the settlement.) The bank can be moved to a different token at any time. The transition takes 24 real life hours, and the items inside are inaccessible during the process. The item storage is not shared between servers. This means you can't access items you stored on a different server, but neither do they count towards the 5 item limit. == Money Storage== You can also keep [[money]] in the bank. Money can only be deposited at the token designated for item storage (see above), but can be withdrawn at any settlement token. This means you do not have to withdraw money before going on a shopping trip, but you have to make it back safely if you sell something. Unlike items, deposited money is shared among servers. Money from the king (e.g. bought at the [http://store.wurmonline.com/ Wurm Store] or from disbanding a [[settlement]]) appears directly in your bank account, not in [[inventory|inventory]].
