This will happen if you do not have access to YouTube, which hosts the videos found on the CU*Answers OnDemand site. To fix this problem, ask the IT person or network administrator at your credit union to enable access to YouTube. Another reason could be your browser. If you are having trouble with a particular video, try re-launching it using Internet Explorer rather than Chrome or other browser. The reason we are putting online course videos on YouTube now, instead of on our own server as  More...

You can use our Direct Login widget to place a Username field on your website to begin the login process. For the password and security questions, the member would then be directed to the OBC login page, as now. Use the link below for instructions on how to use our Direct Login widget to add the appropriate code to your website. OnlineBanking It's Me 247 Itsme247

Since your credit union's website can be the online banking login page, by putting either a budget or the direct login widget on the page, we suggest you place the TurboTax banner on your credit union's website. Since the OBC is a shared resource, we do not have the ability to add custom banners on the OBC. (Xtend does do custom Member Reach messages on the OBC page, but that would only allow for text, no images.) Likewise, because It's Me 247 online banking is a shared resource,   More...

These symbols print when the printer doesn't know what graphic or font to use for the logo, signature, or MICR line. There are a few possible causes: Is this a new printer? If this is a new printer, the first thing to consider is whether the other printers at the credit union use Check Secure devices. Check Secure devices are no longer sold and are not compatible with new printer hardware. To transition from Check Secure devices to the new software based check printing methods, contact CU  More...

Using CU*BASE to Comply with New Rules for Tracking Beneficial Ownership FinCEN has issued new rules under the Bank Secrecy Act that require financial institutions to identify and verify the identity of the beneficial owners of all legal entity members (corporations, etc.). Under the final rule, credit unions are required to have written procedures to identify and verify beneficial owners of legal entity members who open new accounts on or after May 11, 2018. In addition to identifying and coll  More...

Well, it's a little of both, actually. If you activate something that’s optional in CU*BASE but there is not a corresponding link to that from somewhere in your master navigation, then members won’t be able to get to it. As an example, take the overdraft services feature, where members can change their Reg E opt in/out choice online. If you do not have a link to this in online banking from either the mega menu, on a clickable ad, or on a widget bar, then even if you activate i  More...

There is nothing CU*Answers can do to stop financial aggregation services like Mint from accessing our online banking products. Although we have set up many direct integration tools over the years (see the related links), members can also provide their credentials to whomever they choose and the process is entirely in the hands of that third party to maintain the connectivity. Hint: Members who choose to do this will need to remember that whenever they change their online banking password, they&  More...

The Secondary Names (SECNAMES) file stores instructions that link a membership account to another member or non-member record. The file stores links to joint owner names and beneficiary names for all non-IRA account types. (IRA beneficiaries are stored in a completely different file because they are linked to an IRA Plan Type, not specific individual sub-accounts.) The file also stores a third type referred to as miscellaneous owner which can be used for any purpose you wish. The most co  More...

The NSF Statistics Dashboard (Tool #557) will track this information for you automatically. It is separated into the NSF category and the Courtesy Pay Category. Credit unions are using this dashboard to help predict averages of NSF/Courtesy Pay fee income and also to track how many members may be using the service. You can click on any of the origins (listed in blue text) and you can drill further to members who had more than X transactions in a specific month. There are a lot of graphical oppor  More...

The previous tools used for uploading and downloading to and from CU*BASE will be retired when your credit union recieves the 20.07 CU*BASE software release. For online and Site-Four credit unions, that date is Sunday, July 12. Self-processing credit unions will receive the release the following Sunday, July 19. To replace the two tools, a new tool was introduced in November 2018, Tool #1375 Data Transfers (Upload or Download) . Following the release, this tool will be the default data transfer  More...

You can Query the PCALTCFG file for information on e-Alerts and e-Notices. This file will show you all members who have signed up for these items, including an column indicating whether the member signed up to receive the alert via email or text message. In the alert type field, the types codes are as follows: AC = ACH transaction AB = Account Balance LN = Loan Payment Due NP = e-Notice

Since the system will be unable to respond with a balance, it will also be unable to log the text message against the member's account number, which means it cannot be included when fees are tallied. So although the member may still be charged by their mobile phone provider for text messages they send, they will not be charged the usual text message fees by the credit union via CU*BASE (nor with the credit union be charged for that item).

To take advantage of the CU*Answers online imaging solution, there are a few required pieces of hardware. Each branch will each need an Gweep upload appliance to transfer the electronic images to the secure database. Additionally, scanners are needed to capture photo IDs (and supporting documents for loans), and signature pads are needed at each workstation where receipts are signed. Thermal printers are required for the system. These hardware devices are described in more detail below: Gweep U  More...

Below are some commonly asked questions about MFA. Below the questions are some fuller feature documentation resources. After my credit union activates multi-factor authentication for It’s Me 247 , do my members using the “jump” feature (to access a second membership without entering credentials) need to use MFA during this jump? Can you send a one-time passcode for multi-factor authentication (MFA) for BizLink 247 via text message? My credit union has activated multi-factor au  More...

The following applies only to credit unions that have activated the Text-To-Speech (TTS) engine for CU*Talk Audio Response. You can use Tool #506 Member Rate Maintenance to control product rates read to members in CU*Talk Audio Response. But keep in mind that because you are using Text-To-Speech, changes made here directly affect the credit union website and It's Me 247 online banking as well. Once in the menu option, select shares or certificates. From the next rate menu, you will see a   More...

This will snip the text and copy it to your clipboard. Place your mouse in the application and paste it there. The paste feature is accessed different way  More...

When members authenticate for MFA, they use a one-time passcode, which also gives them the opportunity to register their device. The next time they log in on a registered device, they may not be required to use a one-time passcode. Situations where a one-time passcode WOULD be needed include the following: Your configuration for MFA in Tool #569 Online/Mobile/Text Banking VMS Config requires a one-time passcode be sent for authentication each time the member logs in. Your credit union has set  More...

Verify that check viewing is turned on for the CU. You can check by making sure there is a code in the Check Image ID field in Online Banking Configuration (Tool #5456). If the Check Image ID field is blank, either the correct value was somehow removed and needs to be replaced, the CU’s request for online banking check images is not yet completed (check the Pending Check Image Projects on the Check Image Info portal page), or this CU has never signed up for online banking check images (  More...

This functionality is not supported since international numbers cannot receive the code needed for MFA reset. During MFA authentication at login, the system presents all the phone numbers associated with the membership. While this list may include international numbers, it is up to the member to pick a number that can receive an MFA code via text message. NOTE: Cell phone number authentication via MFA at login is only supported for It’s Me 247 . Phone numbers are not recorded on the system  More...

As announced in the communication linked to below, credit unions will start incurring costs for text messages for MFA in the April 2025 invoice.

It is accessed via Tool #569 , then Online Banking Password and Settings . MFA settings are configured on the second screen.) Try one or more of these three strategies on that screen: Choose a longer inter  More...

Yes! Here's a list of just a few of them: Stuff members will love: Favorite accounts - Which accounts they want to see front and center when they log in.
