A savings account is a deposit account that is designed for saving cash. It can help you achieve short, medium and long-term goals like a vacation, school expenses or an emergency fund. A savings account is more appropriate for savings goals as you typically earn interest when you deposit money for an extended period of time. TD has Personal Savings Accounts and tools to help you grow your savings and reach your goals faster.

A chequing account is the most basic transactional account you can have. It’s considered an account you can use every day. When you need to buy gas, grab groceries, or make a bill payment, people generally use their chequing account.

A savings account can help you achieve short and long term saving goals. Instead of being used for day-to-day transactions savings accounts may be more appropriate for saving goals since these accounts earn interest.
