CU*Answers released a beta-test version of the 16.05 release of its CU*BASE core processing software to four of its online clients, including Element FCU in Charleston, WV; FOCUS CU in Wauwatosa, WI; Glacier Hills CU in West Bend, WI; and MidUSA CU in Middletown, OH. The release includes more than 30 development projects that added new and enhanced features to be used by tellers and MSRs, accountants and back office staff, call center operators, lenders and marketers.

As part of its CollabREBATE program, CU*Answers will award all beta-test sites a rebate of up to $3,000 off their monthly invoice for active participation in beta-testing, which involves attending training via web conference and completing at least two progress report checklists during the 6-week beta period. The 16.05 release will go live to all clients during May and June.
