E-BANKING

The technology has paced many steps. We can now transfer money online from one bank account to
another. In earlier days, cheques were used to transfer money and it took 2–3 days for the clearance. If
cheques spoiled, mutilated, and lost, then the transfer took more time as a fresh cheque was required
again. With e-banking, you can transfer funds easily from one account to another through a computer,
laptop, and even your smartphone.
