Interest Checking Account vs. Savings Accounts

Posted by Sha'Kreshia Terrell in BankingFebruary 21, 20231 min read
Are you ready to make some real money moves?

An interest checking account and savings are both deposit accounts that earn interest. But they're not created equal. Savings accounts typically offer higher interest rates. However, you won't have access to your money as quickly with a savings account as you would with an interest checking account. On the other hand, an interest checking account will allow you more flexibility and access to your money when you need it.
