CU*Answers, the 100% credit union-owned cooperative CUSO, recently announced that it had expanded the number of supported carriers for the It’s Me 247 Mobile Text service. This is good news for credit unions with members in outlying areas as the number of supported carriers has reached thirty‑four, broadening the service’s reach!

The CUSO’s text banking product is part of its wide variety of self-service products available to credit unions on the core processing platform, CU*BASE^®. Other self-service products include It’s Me 247 Online Banking, mobile web and app, EasyPay bill payment, and more. A CU*Answers spokesperson added that an exciting, new look for online banking will be released in January 2013, and that interested credit unions can see a preview on their website.
