Reply to comment by 152centimetres in ELI5: Why are contactless payment methods faster than inserting the chip? by jimmysofat6864

Interesting, I have never experienced that. Here in the UK a debit card is associated with a single account, and savings accounts don’t have cards (typically).

In the US checking accounts and savings accounts are usually tied together and use a singular debit card. You can open just a savings account though.
