The Bag slots or Inventory^[1] are located above the Micro menu which contains a backpack and 4 slots for bag items. The default backpack is a 16-slot container, and it can thus hold sixteen items – one in each slot. New bags you acquire can be smaller containers, or bigger than your backpack.

Some people considered the key ring button part of this area, but it has since been removed.

Your inventory in the game. All items not equipped on your character are stored here. One backpack is automatically provided for you. To fill the other four slots, you must purchase, find, or make additional bags.^[2]

While the bar has five slots only four are changeable, the slot at the right-most end contains the backpack, which cannot be removed or replaced. Attempting to remove a bag from its slot with items will result in the message 'Can't put non-empty bags in other bags.'

Be at least friendly with the guild who has the Guild Vault Voucher (7th Slot) unlocked by having 6 tabs purchased (a total cost of 9350 gold) Have at least 10k gold for Guild Vault Voucher (7th Slot) or 20k gold for Guild Vault Voucher (8th Slot) (varies depending on current guild rep). As Artemis commented above, the Guild Vault Voucher (8th Slot) is a reward for completing the Stay Classy Guild achievement. I'm not sure about the Guild level requirements, 5 or 10, but you do need to have Honoured Rep with your Guild.

Bank slots

Main article: Bank

Each character can purchase up to seven bag slots in the bank. The cost of the bag slots in the bank increases with each extra slot purchased, starting at 10, then increasing to 1, then 10, then 25 for the rest, for a total of 111 10 for all seven slots.

Empty bag slots that do not have a bag equipped cannot hold items (other than bags).

Guild Bank Tabs Wow

A bank is a building with several teller NPCs that allow a character to access a private storage area that is accessible from any bank branch. Branches appear in major cities and some towns, and allow a character to store items not currently in use. However, the term 'bank' is usually used to refer to the storage space itself, rather than the physical structure.

All of the banks share the same vault; the neutral banks are equivalent to the faction banks. If you place items in one bank, you will be able to access them in another. (Canonically, this is accomplished through the use of Automated Teleportation Modules; ATM's for short.) However, players are not able to use the banks of opposing factions, because they cannot talk to the tellers.

Bank space

Initially a character's bank account (vault storage space) contains 28 item storage slots at no cost. An additional seven bag slots for more space are purchasable. These provide no additional item storage slots, but allow placement of a bag that has item storage capacity. The bags can be changed out and it is common practice to progressively place larger bags. The cost of the bag slots increases with each extra slot purchased starting at 10, (then increasing to 1, 10, 25, 25, 25, 25, for a total of 111 10 for all slots (not including the bags that go into them).

Players can craft using materials currently stored in the bank, from anywhere in the world, without needing to retrieve the items first.

Unlike a real bank, you cannot store currency within the bank, only items.

Reagent Bank

Main article: Reagent Bank

The Reagent Bank is a 98-slot bank tab which stores only crafting reagents. The Reagent Bank can be unlocked for 100. The Reagent Bank is designed to be a convenient and generous way of storing reagents.

Portable banks

Portable banks can be carried with players as items or abilities, giving access to the bank anywhere in the game. They reduce a player's need to travel to a bank, but, due to their long cooldowns (often an hour or more), they do not completely remove it.

Known portable banks:

• [Jeeves] (bank only accessible by engineers)
• [Argent Squire]/[Argent Gruntling] (when upgraded with an [Argent Pony Bridle])
• [Pack Hobgoblin] (goblin racial ability)
• [Mobile Banking] (will access your guild bank)
• [Sassy Imp] (one of his random service)
