  • A ‘Savings Account’ is also a deposit account, but it is generally used for storing day-to-day funds, making deposits, and paying bills. The difference between a ‘Payroll Account’ and a ‘Savings Account’ is that customers can receive salary through the ‘Payroll Account’ to earn payroll rewards. ‘Payroll Account’ generally offer exclusive rewards to their account holders. The Standard Chartered Payroll Account rewards include Cash Rebate and miles.
