Explanation
ฝาก means “to leave or entrust something,” and เงิน means “money.” Together, ฝากเงิน describes placing money in someone else's care. It most often refers to depositing money into a bank account. ฝากเงินเข้าบัญชี explicitly means “deposit money into an account.” It can also describe leaving cash with a person for safekeeping. The pattern ฝากเงินไว้กับ + person makes this meaning clear. The reversed form เงินฝาก is a noun meaning “a deposit” or “deposited funds.”
Usage
It is commonly used when depositing cash at a bank counter or ATM. It can also be used when leaving money with a family member or another trusted person for safekeeping.
Caution
Do not confuse ฝากเงิน with โอนเงิน “transfer money,” จ่ายเงิน “pay,” or ถอนเงิน “withdraw money.” ฝากเงิน specifically involves placing money into an account or leaving it in someone's care.
