Bank provides an island bank to enable island members to share money.
Created and maintained by tastybento.
Useful links
Introduction#
Each island has a bank account. Players can deposit or withdraw money from their regular economy accounts into the island account where it is pooled. The island owner can decide which rank of team member can access the account via the settings menu. There is a baltop command that players can use to see which island has the most, or least money.
Features#
- Save or spend money as an island team
- Compete to have the highest balance in the game
- See a full history of transactions on the account
Requirements#
Bank requires an economy to be installed on the server that uses Vault. Ideally, the economy should be multi-world aware otherwise money may end up being shared between worlds and game modes.
Commands#

Changelog#
What's new in v1.10.0 — Breaking changes (Java 21, BentoBox 3.14.0, MiniMessage)
Released: 2026-06-16
A modernisation release. Bank now targets Java 21, Paper 1.21.11 and BentoBox 3.14.0, and its entire locale set has been migrated to BentoBox's MiniMessage colour format.
- 🔡 New placeholder
%Bank_[gamemode]_latest_transaction%— shows a user's most recent island bank transaction, rendered as[Username] [TxType] $[Amount](e.g.tastybento Deposited $500.0). Fully localised. - 🔡 Complete language coverage — Bank now matches the full BentoBox locale set (23 languages).
- 🔡 🔺 MiniMessage locale format. All locale files were converted from legacy
&/§colour codes to MiniMessage. Any customised Bank language files must be re-expressed in MiniMessage syntax — back them up, delete the old files to let them regenerate, then redo your edits. - 🔺 Platform modernization. Build upgraded to Java 21 / Paper 1.21.11 / BentoBox 3.14.0;
plugin.ymlapi-versionbumped to 1.21; test suite migrated to JUnit 5 + MockBukkit. - 🐛 Hardened bank transaction-history parsing against malformed entries and localised the latest-transaction placeholder fallback text.
🔺 Updating: Update BentoBox to 3.14.0 and ensure the server runs Java 21 before installing this version. Back up any customised locale files first.
What's new in v1.9.1
Released: 2026-03-28
- Top island name placeholders.
%Bank_[gamemode]_top_island_<number>%now exposes the island name (not just the owner name) for each leaderboard position. Island names are cached alongside owner names and balances. - ⚙️ Interest compounding documentation and config comments corrected — the
compound-periods-per-yearcalculation had an off-by-one that caused slightly incorrect compound interest. Update your config comments by replacing the old jar.
Translations#
Help us keep translations accurate
Most BentoBox and addon translations are now generated with the help of AI, so the bulk of the work is already done — but AI is not perfect. What we really need from the community is error reports and corrections.
