A guild bank is typically some storage method in-game for the purposes of holding items and money to be shared among guild members.

Official guild banks

Blizzard-supported guild banks were introduced with patch 2.3 to help reduce player-created guild banks, which were prone to many issues caused by Terms of Use violations due to account sharing.

Features

  • Access to the guild-bank via a Guild Vault object next to the standard bankers in the game.
  • 6 purchasable tabs which have 98 item slots each, bags are not required for the slots. The price for the first tab begins at 100g, then increases for each successive tab, 250g, 500g, 1000g, 2500g, 5000g, for a grand total of 9350g.
  • Storage of money.
  • Players with the appropriate permissions can store items and money for use by the rest of the guild. The guild master can allocate different permissions to each tab if required.
  • Repair NPCs have a 'pay for repairs from guild funds' button based on guild permissions (up to withdraw limit).
  • Advanced permission-system (defaults to controlled by guild leader), that can allow, disallow and limit the interaction (deposit/withdraw items or money) per tab, per guild rank. Withdrawal limits can be set up.
  • Access-logs in-game showing the 25 latest money or item related withdrawals/deposits per tab.
  • Web access and display via World of Warcraft Armory.[1] Requires login.[2]
  • Where to find the guild vaults.

Guild bank characters

Main article: Mule (game term)

A character used as storage and/or a trading post by the members, usually accompanied by a web based script to post the contents online. Bank rules depend on the guild, there is no set of default permissions.

NOTE: It is not recommended that multiple guild members log into the guild bank account, even if it is more convenient to manage and disperse items, since this is a violation of the Terms of Use according to Spell frost icestorm [Blizzard]. Due to the many potential issues involved with this approach, it is highly recommended that guilds spend the gold on the official guild bank instead.
