The Warband Bank is a feature in the modern version of World of Warcraft that will allow you to deposit gold and items from any character on your account to withdraw on any other character, allowing you to move gold around between realms and factions if you choose.

For Classic WoW, the only way to move gold between realms or factions would be to change the realm or faction of the character with the gold.

This post appears to follow up on last week's trading policy change, which officially prohibited all gold swapping in WoW Classic.
