A salary account is specifically intended for employees to receive their payroll deposits. It often has benefits like zero MAB and additional perks. In contrast, a regular savings account is a general-purpose account that may require a minimum balance and may not offer the same benefits as a salary account.

If regular salary credits stop, the salary account may automatically convert to a regular savings account after a certain period, subject to the bank's terms and conditions, which may include the imposition of a Monthly Average Balance (MAB).

Salary accounts often come with unique benefits such as zero minimum balance requirements, free cheque books and debit cards, lower interest rates on loans, special offers, and waivers on various banking fees and charges. Benefits may vary depending on the bank and the type of salary account.

Advantages of having a salary account

Salary accounts streamline the process of receiving your monthly pay. They often come with no minimum balance requirements and offer special features like zero transaction fees, higher ATM withdrawal limits, and preferential rates on loans and other financial products. They can also include additional perks like free cheque books and online banking services.

Salary accounts generally offer interest rates similar to regular savings accounts. The interest is calculated on the daily balance and credited at regular intervals, ensuring that your money grows steadily. These accounts strike a balance between accessibility and savings growth.

Do utilize the additional services and offers linked to your Salary account. Regularly monitor your account to track your finances effectively. Don't overlook the opportunity to link your account with other financial products for consolidated benefits. Be mindful of the account's status if you change jobs.
