  • 5. I am interested in using the 1Click Offers feature that allows me to make loan offers to members in online banking. When are unaccepted offers purged? Updated Public

    Preview
    No, the 1Click Offers feature does not specifically support MLA requirements. MLA grants a number of protections for active duty service people and imposes specific requirements on the credit union in granting credit.

The act requires that a unique APR be calculated incorporating things such as fees and credit life or disability. The MAPR   More...
  • 9. Is there a way for me to preview my 1Click Offer prior to sending it to my membership? Public
    Preview
    Before you run your batch flood to your membership, it is important to run a test offer. This is done in a similar manner as defining your offer, but instead of running the offer for a batch of members, make the Query for just a single employee account or a group of employees.

    Preview
    IMPORTANT NOTE: When It’s Me 247 was updated in 2021, the “See” option shown on here was made unavailable.

Both extend beyond online banking to consider a financial institution’s role and responsibility in protecting member private data via all access channels, from the teller line to a back office employee answering   More...
  • 13. Why does CU*Answers charge a monthly fee for running service charge programs we configure ourselves in CBX? Public
    Preview
    There are two primary reasons we charge this fee: Our belief that we should do our best to keep our fees down when credit unions do not earn. This is why, for example, It's Me 247 mobile web is offered free to our credit unions. It's also behind our constant pressure to reduce fees where CUs have no basis or belief they can charge for a defensive, relationship service. Charging for these services in this manner fund other areas where the direct expenses cannot easily be identified wi  More...

  • 23. Will we know if a bill is be paid by ACH or check in "It's Me 247" bill pay (Fiserv)? If so, how? How will stop payments be handled? Public

Once a payment begins processing, you will be able to view the payment method in the history. If the   More...
