Finding the Best Money Apps for CouplesChances are if you’re listening to this podcast you do a lot of your banking and finances digitally.
In a survey by Federal Reserve Bank, they found that 71% of bank customers regularly use online banking and 43% use mobile.
For us, the convenience is hard to beat. I can do pretty much everything I need from home or my phone, including depositing checks, scheduling payments, and transfers.
I believe the last time I had to step into a branch was for the notary a few years ago.
The other side of living in a world with digital banking is that we have to be savvy about securing our finances and data.
Data breaches, phishing, and more sophisticated scammers happen and are out there, so how do you take advantage of the new apps and options out there?
There’s a lot to cover so today I’m happy to have two experts on.

In this episode we’ll get into:
