Switching to Chase

Checking accounts are held through a financial institution, like a bank or credit union, and are a place to deposit money, make transfers, write checks, withdraw cash, pay bills, and take care of other day-to-day banking transactions. In most cases, they earn little to no interest.

Savings accounts are ideal for depositing and saving money. These accounts typically earn interest that may help the account grow. Most savings accounts have either withdrawal limits, usually up to six per month, or associated fees when making a withdrawal, which can encourage you to save. Contact your financial institution for more information.

There are a number of differences between checking and savings accounts, as well as pros and cons to each, and understanding these features can help you determine which type of account is right for you.

Checking vs. savings account features

Before opening an account, it’s important to understand the key features, benefits and downsides to both checking and savings accounts.

Checking account features

The primary benefit of checking accounts is the ability to store money you intend on spending, either through debit card transactions, checks, or cash withdrawals. However, the downside is they typically don’t pay interest.

Typical checking account features include:

Debit card
Paper checks
Direct deposit
Overdraft protection
Access to ATMs
Online and mobile banking services, including bill pay, transfers, account alerts and mobile check deposit

A great benefit to having a checking account is that you can use it for paying bills or day-to-day purchases. You have access to your funds through a debit card or checks. Sometimes, you may even get a checking bonus for opening a new checking account with qualifying activities.

Potential downsides to most types of checking accounts can include:

Usually does not earn interest
Monthly service fees
Overdraft fees
Out-of-network ATM fees
Foreign transaction fees

Features and benefits of a savings account

On the other hand, the primary benefit to savings accounts is that you can use them to save money, and they have savings account interest rates to help your money grow. You can pull from a savings account for emergencies or large purchases.

Typical features of traditional savings accounts include:

Earned interest
Access to branches
Direct deposit
Online and mobile banking services, such as transfers, account alerts and mobile check deposit

Primary benefits for having a savings account include building an emergency fund and saving for a large purchase, like education, a vacation, vehicle or down payment for a house. Sometimes, you may even get a bonus for opening a new account, which can give you a great start on saving.

Potential downsides to savings accounts can include:

Limits on the amount and frequency you withdraw from the account
Monthly service fees
Savings withdrawal limit fees

Contact your bank or credit union for more information on fees and limitations.

Checking account vs. savings account types

Traditional checking account

Why you should have both a checking and savings account

While you can have a checking and savings account separately — because each serves a different purpose — they can both be helpful for long term financial health and reaching your financial goals.

A great benefit of having both a checking and savings account, specifically with the same bank or financial institution, is that you can often manage both accounts through online banking and mobile apps, and transfer funds between accounts.

Can you transfer any amount from savings to checking?

Yes, you can transfer money from savings to checking. However, according to Regulation D, you may only make six 'convenient' transfers per month. This includes any transfers that are pre-authorized, automatic, or initiated by telephone, computer or fax.

Why is there a limit on transfers from savings to checking?

Why does this six transfer limit exist? It exists because your account is considered a “savings deposit” and they're subject to different rules. Why those rules exist has to do with the reserve requirements, or how much the bank needs to keep around in their vaults, on different accounts.

How much money can I take out of my savings account at once chase?

Chase ATM Withdrawal Limit If you have a basic Chase debit card, you can withdraw up to $3000 per day at your in-branch Chase ATM. For Chase ATMs outside of your branch, you can withdraw up to $1000 per day. Non-Chase ATMs allow you to withdraw up to $500 per day.

How much can I transfer per day chase?

There are some other important details to know before wiring money with Chase. The total wire transfer limit is $250,000 per business day and the wire cut-off time is 4pm EST. So be sure you get your request in before this cut-off time, otherwise Chase will only process it the next business day.
