on or in account

hi, should we say the money is on his account or in his account ?

in account

Hi there,

The correct preposition is "in". You put money in or into your account.
You may deposit (=put in) or withdraw (=take out) money from your account.

"On his account" means because he wanted to. For example: Please don't go there on my account.

On account

As I found in oxford dictionary, on account means if you by sth or pay on account, you pay nothing or only a small amount immediately and the rest later
