    There are many banks that allow their users to open a FD account through their banking app. However, as their interest rates on FD differ, you should choose the bank in which you would like to open an account carefully and install their banking app. The banking app can be found on ‘google play’ or app store’ on your device, however, you should ensure to install the official banking app as there are many other similar apps available.

    • Create a new ID or log in with your existing ID

The option to create a new ID would be displayed on the app while logging in. Fill in all the details correctly and create a new ID to log in to the bank’s account.

    • Select the ‘open FD account’ option

Choose an account according to your preference and financial planning carefully and then proceed.

    • Provide the necessary details

    You would be redirected and a form would be displayed, you must fill all the necessary details in the form. These details include principal amount, tenure, nominee, etc. The information should be entered correctly and checked to avoid facing any inconveniences while opening your FD account.

    • Confirm the details and make payment via netbanking

    Once all the details are entered, you must re-check the details before opening your FD account with the bank. In case any changes are required, you can make the changes before opening your FD account. After your FD account is opened, you must make your first payment via net banking.

    You could even opt to open a savings account with the bank, however, most banks offer only 3.50% p.a. interest on savings accounts which is much lower than what FD accounts offer. However, savings accounts provide you with liquidity which FD accounts do not provide. Hence, you should think carefully about which account you would like to open before opening the account.

  • You can use your net banking app for these functions

    The bank is the place you deposit your money for safekeeping. Before net banking services were introduced in the early aughts, you had no option but to go to the bank physically to carry out even the smallest of transactions. However, recent technological advancements, have made it possible for you not to go to the bank physically. That is possible through the bank’s net banking app. A wide range of functions like bank account opening online has become quicker and easier thanks to E-banking services.

    Very easy to use, you can find a net banking app on a play store. The only things you need to use the app is a smartphone and an internet connection. These banking apps can be used for a wide range of purposes. However, if you don’t know what you can use net banking for, listed below are a few of them:

    1)Opening an account:

    This is one of the things that many people don’t know about. While they may use a net banking app for other purposes, they still may not be aware that it is possible to open a savings account on the app. After deciding to open the account online, please ensure that the banking app is there on your smartphone. If it isn’t, don’t worry, you can install the app through the play store. After installing, open the app, click on the account opening application form. On the form, please provide personal information like name, age, home address and phone number. After that, you need to upload a soft copy of your documents to the app. Once, that’s done, the bank will check the details on the form against that on the documents. If the information checks out, your application will be accepted.

    2)Make payments:

    While everyone will use a net banking app for paying for expensive things, people are unaware that they can use the app for paying for something that isn’t expensive too. For instance, you are in a general store shopping for groceries. On reaching the cash counter, you find out that the entire bill is just ₹80. You don’t have ₹80 in cash. So instead of giving the retailer ₹500 and waiting to get change in return, you can take out the phone, open the app and scan the QR code. After scanning the QR code, please add the amount and your UPI pin. Once pin and amount are added, your bill is paid.

    3)Get account statements:

    Before internet banking, to get an account statement, you had to update the passbook. This process took time. However, acquiring account statements on the net banking app is pretty simple. All you need to do is open the UPI app, click on the option to acquire the statement. On the landing page, you will also have the option of modifying the date range you want the statement for. For instance, if you want an account statement that lists out your expenditure for the tenure of five months, you need to select the said date range.

    Other than the three above, there are several other functions you can use a net banking app for. Hopefully, you enjoyed reading this article and hopefully, you found it helpful.
