checking accounts

A checking account is a type of bank account that allows you to deposit money, make withdrawals, and write checks or use a debit card for purchases. It's designed for everyday transactions, providing easy access to your funds. You can deposit your wages, pay bills, and transfer money to and from other accounts. Checking accounts typically don’t earn much interest, but they offer convenience and safety for managing your money. Many accounts also come with online banking features, making it simple to monitor your balance and transactions.
