    Savings account is strictly for deposits. You want to write a check, you have to get a separate account, a checking account.

    A savings account has an interest rate associated with it — so if you have money in your savings account, the bank will actually pay you for having it there.
    A checking account doesn’t have this interest rate — its basically just an account that you have to keep some cash in to cover your debitcard/checks you write.
