Cultural Tip

In Brazil, banks often differentiate between ‘conta corrente’ (checking), ‘conta poupança’ (savings) and newer ‘conta digital’ or ‘conta salário’. When speaking to a bank representative, a slightly more formal tone (using ‘senhor’/‘senhora’) is common, but ‘você’ is perfectly acceptable in most customer‑service settings.
