List of banks
This copy was last processed on . The copied wiki revision is dated .
The following is a complete list of all banks, bank chests, and banking services in Old School RuneScape. This page does not include the locations of bank deposit boxes, as they are listed on their own page. There are currently a grand total of 126 locations available in-game that allow players to access the full Bank of Gielinor. Both banks and bank chests are indicated on the world map with the dollar () icon.
Naming convention
In popular discussion, a bank refers to any location where a player's stored (or "banked") items can be accessed, where as the bank typically refers to the contents of your personal bank storage. "Banking" refers to the act of accessing the bank interface.
For the purposes of naming, a distinction is made between banks and chests, although both serve the exact same function. The term bank is typically used to describe any banking location with at least one teller; these locations are generally notable for having additional information or context that separates them from their general area, such as the Draynor bank, which is noteworthy for the robbery that took place there and the location's popularity in free-to-play.
Chests can access "the bank" just like any other banking location, but are typically seen as a part of their connected area, rather than a hub; for example, the bank chest in the Ruins of Unkah is rarely used for anything other than Tempoross, and there is little information that could be found about the bank structure or area itself. Generally, chests are described on their relevant activity's page, whereas banks have their own dedicated page due to the additional information available.

Banking services
While deposit boxes are typically found in banks or next to chests, there are several bank deposit boxes or banking services in RuneScape that exist outside of traditional banking areas. These can be considered additional banks in that they can deposit items, however, they are not full banks as no items can be withdrawn.
