Generally a personal checking account which earns intrest will credit the acct. Monthly
savings account
Money that is paid for the use of money is called interest. When you keep your money in a bank savings account, the bank credits your account with interest.
The minimum balance that must be paid to avoid accruing interest on the account is the amount specified by the bank or financial institution.
The only real difference is that the interest on a savings account is money paid to you by the bank (usually paid quarterly by many banks). On the other hand, on a loan is money you pay the bank for borrowing their money. The reason the bank pays you interest on a savings account is because the bank will actually use the money you give them in your savings to pay others loans. So in basic terms, they are "borrowing" your money, so they pay you interest for doing so.
The money you deposit into your account is an obligation for the bank to be paid to you anytime you want. The bank would lend this money to its other customers and earn an interest income from it.
