The more often it is compounded the better. So daily is the best, next is weekly, monthly etc. The greater the number of compounding periods, the better it is for your bottom line.

Difference between compounded daily or monthly?

Compound interest is interest that is paid on both the original principal balance and interest earned. For example, a $100 savings account with a 5% rate of interest compounded annually would have a balance of $105 at the end of year one. At the end of year two the account would earn interest income on the entire account balance of $105 and the interest payment would amount to $5.25 at which point the saver would have an account balance of $110.25. The extra 25 cents of income in year two represents interest on the previous year's interest. Savings can be compounded on different dates including annual, monthly, daily, or continuously. The compounding date represents the date that the savings account balance is updated. The difference between daily or monthly compounding does not result in materially different account balances at the end of the compounding period. For example, a $10,000 savings account compounded at 5% monthly would be worth $44,677 at the end of 30 years compared to an account balance of $44,812 when compounded daily.

What is better for the consumer simple interest or compounded daily?

I'm thinking of bonds when answering this question. The more frequent the compounding the better it will be for the lender. The less frequent the compounding the better it will be for the borrower. Lets use this example: Interest = 10% Principle = $1000 Compounding A = Annually Compounding B = Quarterly Time period = 2 years A) At the end of the first year $100 in interest would have been made making the balance $1100. At the end of the second year $110 would be earned because of compounding and the balance would be $1210. B) At the end of the first year $103.81 in interest would have been earned with a ending balance of $1103.81. At the end of the second year the interest earned would be $114.59 and the ending balance would be $1218.40. What I showed here is that if you are the one receiving the interest you would prefer daily compounding. When you're paying out interest you would prefer simple interest.
