Most if not all banking is done online, including paying bills, you can either setup a recurring payment or a one time payment depending on your needs and transferring monies between savings accounts and checking accounts.

Some banks offer free checking, no monthly fees and some banks even offer a yield that is a higher then a traditional checking account, you can currently get a 6.10% annual percentage yield with Community Bank of Pleasant Hill  as long as you meet certain monthly transactional criteria.
