Automated transfers encourage regular saving, while digital systems ensure accurate and timely interest calculations. Reduced operational costs also allow banks to structure competitive savings account interest rates in line with market conditions.
Digital tools such as a savings account interest rate calculator further helps customers understand potential returns based on balances and tenure, improving financial planning and decision making.
