CELEBRATING THE DIGITAL BANKING REVOLUTION
Do you remember a time when you needed to go to the bank just about every week to cash your paycheck and to withdraw money?
With the advent of digital banking, the world has changed, and for all of us, it has gotten so much more convenient! The money that is ours is virtually always available, and it has never been easier for you to get things done! Don’t believe us? Look at some of these changes.
Digital Point of Sale Machines
Instead of simply sticking with cash and checks, vendors large and small can now take their wares on the road while meeting credit card demands. Devices like the Square turn your smartphone into a single-step card-taker, and this can change the way you do business.
Banking Apps
Do you want to check your balance? Do you want to make sure that your money is exactly where it needs to be? That is what a banking app is for. Suddenly, everything you can do at the bank is available to you except for getting out actual money!
Quick Account Transfers
There was a time when it could take as long as twenty four hours to make changes to your account. That could make things a little dicey if you had rent to pay and you needed to get your money from one account to another. At the time, it was easy to get annoyed because, after all, that was all your money! Now you can move money from one account to another without a single bit of trouble and with a bare second’s worth of delay!
Better Business Opportunities
For a long time, the only people who could do business were those who were willing to go through exhaustive processes with banks. Now, instead you can simply set up a merchant account with a service like Paypal and be ready to go. Services like this allow people to pay you with no risk whatsoever to yourself, and they make a huge difference for small business owners everywhere.
Instant Payment
If you are a freelancer or if you simply sell goods or services through the mail, you may remember how long you might go between paychecks. Things could get lost in the mail or people would tell you that they were. With instant pay services available everywhere, you can see the money in your account in a very short amount of time!
Invest Yourself!
With the advent of the digital banking revolution, you have also been placed in control of your own investing. Through the use of direct investing, you can invest your money through a digital interface, making all of your own decisions and deciding on what you are going to do with your cash.
Digital banking equals independence, so figure out what you might not have been doing and join in!
