CU*BASE does not perform any automated card reissues for any credit union or vendor. With the exception of two platforms*, all plastic card reissues are done for the credit union by their vendor. The normal process is the vendor sends the CU a couple of reports once monthly (usually 6 weeks out from expiration of card). One is a reissue report, the other a non-reissue report. The CU reviews and makes changes to the vendor system prior to their cutoff date for ordering the reissues. All cards   More...

Message Types are utilized by CU*BASE to determine what action is to be taken for this transaction. The original message type is the incoming message received by CU*BASE from your vendor.

No. ATM transactions are not included in the debit card round-up toolkit. It is either signature-based debit card transactions or POS (pin-based) transactions.

The consequences of accidentally NOT ordering a card, while inconvenient, are slightly less than the consequences of ordering a card unintentionally. That’s especially true in cases where ordering a card automatically shuts down an existing card, like when there is a second person with that card that suddenly can’t use theirs. (Depends on the vendor setup.) There are situations where CUs use the card reorder feature to change PINs only, or update expiration dates, or something else a  More...

No. This law actually pertains to merchant card programs where the merchant is collecting payments for services and goods sold. Since we do not run merchant programs on our platform, this reporting requirement does not apply to us.

The process can vary a bit according to the vendor, but here's a discussion about how it works for credit unions on the CO-OP network, as an example. In most cases, debit card authorizations create a Misc. Secured Shares record on the member's account to hold the funds. When the actual transaction comes in, this record is automatically deleted. (There are exceptions to this rule, such as gas purchases.) A little history: In the past, debit card authorizations would add a hold to an ind  More...

Yes. You can pull a credit report for any service using the online credit bureau process. Using Tool #53 Process Member Applications, use action code CR to pull the report without creating a loan request and application. We can then create Member Services denial notices for debit cards, checking accounts, ATM cards, etc.

In many cases, the reason an opted-out member receives the non-return fee is because this transaction is a recurring payment. Recurring transactions are not covered by the Reg. E Opt In/Out requirements. You can identify this by the * after the DBT/WDR trans description on the member's transaction history. Recurring transactions are posted and fee'd even if the member is Opted Out.

Changing the member's name via Tool #15 Update Membership Information does not automatically change the member's name in the PLASTICS file.

Before selecting Add/Update, make sure you only select Order Card, and deselect the Order PIN and   More...

Yes. Since the program is for SD application type only and is not posted immediately on a per transaction bases, both Online and Batch ATM/Debit Card processing is supported. The Debit Card Round Up program is at at End-of-Day (EOD) and will look at the transaction file for Origin type 13 (PIN) and 16 (SIG).

The short answer is that transactions are sometimes getting denied because of a combination of secured funds and a backup of pending items that are waiting to be posted. When an authorization comes in, CU*BASE reviews the account and approves the transaction based on the member’s available balance. To avoid approving something we shouldn’t, CU*BASE always calculates the available balance minus any transactions that are currently in the queue, waiting to be posted. Unfortunately, if t  More...

The core system will not block a transaction when a member is traveling. That is done on the vendor's side. You will want to put in a travel notification for this member's debit card or credit card directly with your card vendor.

The MSG TYPE values describe types of 'authorizations' and 'transactions' processed through the CO-OP network. Authorizations: (100 110 120 130) For PIN Authorizations there is no hold on the member's funds. However, Signature Authorizations place a hold, CU*BASE shows this as a debit authorization comment in OTB processing. In either case this transaction is not posted to the members account. This is just a POS (point of sale) authorization for the merchant. It could be e  More...

The fields are related to Process Codes, in that they are derived from the code attached to the message received from the plastics processor (vendor, or switch).

In some cases, the general upload file that is received by CU*Answers on a daily basis only contains accounts where a member has had a change to their account. Contact your OTB vendor to see if you can request a full file to be sent so that all card information would be sent in the upload file to CU*Answers. (In some cases if your CU is already being charged for the upload it is possible there would be no change in price to have the full file sent over.)
