A digital bank has a minimum overhead cost and that is reflected in the way they provide service to their customers. Now, you have the liberty to open a zero balance savings account where the bank will not charge you any penalty if you maintain no balance in your account, and every rupee you save will earn interest.
Better features
A digital bank account is loaded with all the essential features, so you don’t have to worry about your regular financial requirements. Pay a friend or your local shop; everything is just a click away. You could also use your banking app for online shopping, investments, and multiple other features.

The moment you open a digital zero balance savings account, you get a free virtual debit card. This card is useful for online payments without the added fear of losing your physical card. Also, you don't have to pay any yearly debit card maintenance fees.
Safety and security
Digital banks are equipped to withstand attacks. They are agile and are constantly updating their security systems to make it impossible to hack user data. All your transactions and banking activities are encrypted. At the same time, you are getting quick services and a secure banking experience.
