Overdraft usually means that the bank paid something out for you on your account that came in that you didnt have the full amount for and instead of the transaction bouncing they covered it and they charged you a small fee from your savings to pay for the action they took. Now a bank draft is nothing more then a piece of paper conveying monies. So an overdraft will cost you money but less then a bounce and a bank draft can be a check someone wrote to you for deposit.
