Savings accounts pay interest on your money. There are two types: money market account (German: Tagesgeld) and fixed-term deposit account (German: Festgeld).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Which type of saving account is right for me?
- Money market deposit accounts (German: Tagesgeld) are accounts where you add an withdraw money all the time.
- But: their interest rate keeps changing all the time, too.
- Fixed-term or fixed deposits (German: Festgeld) have a fixed interest rate – but you cannot get your money for the period that you did set it up for.
- Benefit: The interest rates are usually higher than on a Tagesgeld.
