Financial goals and requirements vary from person to person. To reflect these variations, there are different types of accounts. Here are a few of them.

You often receive a Maestro card (previously called an EC card) when you open an account. You can use the Maestro card to withdraw cash from ATMs or as a debit card to pay for purchases in shops. The PostFinance Card is also a handy debit card and can be used to withdraw cash at post office cash dispensers free of charge.

Banks offer a range of other account-related services to help manage your finances, such as direct debits, cheques, etc.
