What is a Checking Account?
A checking account is a safe place to keep your spending money so that you don’t always have to carry cash with you.  Instead of paying with cash, you can write checks or use a debit card to spend the money that is kept in your checking account.
Benefits of Checking Accounts
There are three main reasons why you should consider opening a checking account:
- Safety and convenience – you don’t have to carry cash and checkbooks can be replaced if they are lost or stolen – cash cannot be replaced.
- Save time – you don’t have to go to the bank to withdraw money if you get an ATM or debit card.
- Budget your money – when you write a check, you create a written record of your payment in a check register. Writing down what you spend your money on can help you plan for the future.
