Sweep-in Account

byPaytm Editorial TeamLast Updated: December 12, 2025

Meaning

A Sweep-in Account links your savings or current account with a fixed deposit to offer better interest and flexibility.

Definition

It automatically transfers extra funds from your account into a fixed deposit and reverses the transfer when your balance drops below a set limit.

How It Works

Extra money “sweeps” into FD, and if your account needs funds, the bank “sweeps out” the required amount.

Benefits

  • Higher interest earnings
  • Flexible withdrawals
  • Helps maintain minimum balance
