A transactional account (North America: checking account or chequing account, United Kingdom and some other countries: current account or cheque account) is a deposit account held at a bank or other financial institution, for the purpose of securely and quickly providing frequent access to funds on demand, through a variety of different channels. Because money is available on demand these accounts are also referred to as demand accounts or demand deposit accounts.

Transactional accounts are meant neither for the purpose of earning interest nor for the purpose of savings, but for convenience of the business or personal client; hence they tend not to bear interest. Instead, a customer can deposit or withdraw any amount of money any number of times, subject to availability of funds.

How would I set up a checking account for a club or fraternity?
Q. I was appointed treasurer of my fraternity for next year, and I need to figure out how I would go about setting up a checking account. What kind of checking account would I be able to set up, and what would I need to do so? Thanks.

A. Visit a local bank branch and discuss your needs with a personal banker. S/He will be happy to help you find an account that best suits your needs. If your organization is non-profit, make sure you get a checking account with no fees. Also, you'll probably want to make sure that you and another person are listed on the account and checks require two signatures (keeps fingers out of the pot).

How to use my credit card instead of my checking account to send money via Paypal?
Q. I have a Paypal account and I want to buy stuff on Ebay using credit card rather than my checking account. It seems that Paypal's default payment method is my checking account, but I want the to use my credit card instead. How can I choose?

A. First make sure the credit card you wish to use is added to your paypal accout. If you only have a bank account in your paypal you can add a credit card by going to My Account, then to your profile, then under Financial Information you will be able to add a credit card. When you are paying for an auction, right before you check out and press the "pay" button, you can edit your payment details (there should be a link on the checkout page) and from there you can choose which card you wish to use. Hope that helps!
