Description
Banking is a mechanic wherein the player banks the rings they have collected during gameplay, storing them for later use in order to uy various goodies in the game. If the player does not bank their rings, if they are hit, they will lose all the rings they've gained. After banking rings, the player will naturally be ringless, leaving them vulnerable.

Sonic Dash
In Sonic Dash, the player can bank their rings when they are launched off of any spring, regardless of where it leads. Each time the player banks their rings, their ring count is multiplied in an increasing number, starting with a times 1 multiplier.

Sonic Runners
In Sonic Runners, rings are banked by running past checkpoints, which exist all throughout the games' stages. after fighting Eggman, there will always be a checkpoint.

When running with the RC Tornado 2, the player will get extra rings alongside the rings they've collected when they bank their rings.
