How it's used
While 存入 is understood in banking contexts, it sounds more formal and written than the everyday spoken term 入錢. Most Hong Kongers prefer using the verb 入 followed by the location or account, such as 入落戶口, when speaking casually. Use 存入 primarily for written communication like bank statements or formal instructions.
Examples
Please help me deposit the money into the account.
How much money did you deposit today?

Common mistake
Avoid using 存入 in casual conversation as it can sound overly stiff or like a direct translation from written Chinese. Stick to 入錢 for daily banking tasks.
