With the emergence of online banks, digital wallets and money management apps, some people may think they can ditch their checking account and just use these new tech tools for their transactional needs.
But Erik is here to tell you that even though a checking account may be a traditional way to track your money, it’s also a tool that works in conjunction with many digital options. While it’s a great place to deposit checks, store your money and pay bills, a checking account can do so much more. Click the video above to get Erik’s take on it.
Erik also has a lot to say about what he considers to be the greatest advantage of a checking account—especially one through a financial institution. Let’s just say it’s all about relationship!
