The CU*BASE A2A toolkit does not use micro deposits. Your credit union must configure the third-party FI information in CU*BASE prior to the member having access to initiate A2A transactions, so you are responsible for performing the appropriate validations on the ownership of the account prior to any transfers being initiated. Since we do not use micro deposits, this rule change does not apply to the A2A Transfers feature available via CU*BASE and our online/mobile banking products. micro  More...

We've created a neighborhood for each time zone serviced by the CU*Answers iSeries. When you sign onto CU*BASE, the system knows where your credit union is from and you (and your session) live in a subsystem dedicated to that time zone. (A subsystem is an IBM term; these are used for many different functions on the IBM, from online banking to processing eAlerts, and now for handling time zones for end- and beginning-of day processing.) Then when we start nightly processing for the Cent  More...

When a new member joins your credit union through MOP, they can fund their account with a plastic from another FI. Magic-Wrighter uses this information to debit the member via the plastics rails, then credits the member in CU*BASE via ACH. Therefore, because no ACH debit transaction is being originated, we do not believe there is any need to opt into the Magic-Wrighter Web Debit Validation service if you offer funding via your MOP site. As far as the CU*BASE A2A toolkit in partnership with Mag  More...

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...

If you want to give a member default check holds based on their relationship with the credit union, you'll need to set up Electronic Deposit Hold groups (Tool #355 Electronic Deposit Hold Configuration with the appropriate # of days, then use the Member in Good Standing system (Tool #499 Member In Good Standing Configuration ) to assign the hold groups according to Tiered Service Level. Then, in the Teller Check Holds configuration feature (Tool #849 Teller Check Holds Configuration ),   More...

In a case where the credit union decided that member account numbers had been seriously compromised and wanted to do a conversion of account numbers assigning each member a new account number, CU*Answers would have to bid the process as a custom conversion. There are no current standing processes related to assigning new account numbers to 100% of a credit union's CU*BASE membership. While the conversion of the “go-forward” new member account numbers would be relatively simple,  More...

The most common reason why a member might have a hold group that's different from what would normally be associated with their Tiered Service Level is because of delinquency. During daily delinquency monitoring the system sets the Electronic Deposit Hold Group to a certain code when members go delinquent, according to your credit union's settings in both the Member in Good Standing feature as well as your Delinquency Aging Levels configuration. If the system considers a loan to be deli  More...
