The 5 benefits of online banking

Ask anyone what comes to mind when they think of things that make their lives easier, and they’re likely to say cell phones, household appliances, or cars. Yet one of the biggest boosts to easy living in recent years has been the arrival of online banking. Just think of it. No more lines. No dealing with the post office and stamps. And no more chasing down branch managers just to find out the balance of your account.

Because your financial security, convenience, and peace of mind are top priorities for Discover^®, we strive to provide you with the highest level of online banking services.

Online banking customers enjoy instant access from their computer or mobile device to a full range of services, allowing you to:

• Check balances on accounts and view records of your transactions
• Pay bills automatically each month with easy-to-set-up auto payment
• Transfer funds between accounts
• Download or print statements for your tax or personal records
• Access your account 24/7

Online banks such as Discover offer many different types of accounts, including Certificates of Deposit (CDs), Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), Money Market Account and an Online Savings Account. These accounts often offer higher rates than brick-and-mortar banks. That’s because they have low overhead expenses and can pass their savings along to customers in the form of better rates. But while other banks may offer these accounts, Discover has just the right mix for you, with the returns and liquidity you demand for each unique financial goal.
