Introduction
A checking account is a deposit account held at a financial institution that allows withdrawals and deposits. They are also called as demand accounts and can be accessed using checks, automated teller machines and electronic debits.
Checking accounts can include business accounts, student accounts and joint accounts, along with many other types of accounts that offer similar features. The checking account application has been created so as to enable customers to apply for a checking account by providing minimal personal details. As an applicant, you are also provided with the option to customize the debit card associated with the account.
The application tracker has been built so as to enable tracking of the application once it is submitted. The application tracker also enables the applicant to retrieve and complete an application that has been saved.

In the debit card preferences sub section, you can customize your debit card linked to the checking account, by defining the name to be embossed on the card, the card design etc.
- Account Funding: This section enables you to select the option through which you will fund the initial deposit on your account and to specify details of funding including amount to be funded and subsequent account or card details from which the amount is to be debited.
- Review and Submit: This section displays the summary of the application. You can verify details submitted as part of the application and can modify details in any of the section information if required.
