Nationwide is poised to shut its network of 150 agencies, most of which are based in estate agents.
The Nationwide agencies operate under the Nationwide, Cheshire, Derbyshire and Dunfermline brands and provide basic banking services.
Staff are not employed by Nationwide, with business owners paid a commission to run the services.
The move follows Lloyds’ decision to axe its 265 Halifax agencies, most of which were also based in estate agencies.
