MENTOR,
Ohio, July 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The
Cardinal Credit Union, a member-owned, not-for-profit financial
cooperative serving the community through high-performance banking
products and services, today unveiled its new online banking
platform. Aimed at providing seamless access to the latest and best
financial technology for members, the platform offers multiple new
features including enhanced security and a holistic dashboard for
easy and convenient banking.
The digital platform features personalized financial
recommendations, a comprehensive snapshot of account activity, the
ability to transfer funds to internal and external accounts via
Zelle®, a real-time chat function with a live person, access to
real-time credit scores, and real-time payments/automatic transfers

Cardinal's banking transformation represents a significant
undertaking to fundamentally change its operations, technology and
member services to meet the evolving demands of its growing member
base. This year-long process involved redefining Cardinal's
business strategies and adopting innovative practices to improve
efficiency and deliver personalized member experiences.
"We have been focused for nearly a year on orchestrating and
planning our upgraded online digital banking platform for our
members," said Christine Blake, CEO,
Cardinal Credit Union. "We always strive to do the very best we can
in providing the latest financial products and services. This
initiative will enable our members to bank when, where and how they
want using the latest and most secure digital tools."
In launching the new site, Cardinal leveraged help from its
product partner network, including Lumin Digital and Velera. Other
contributors to the initiative included Zelle, Glia and Bits of
Stock. Each partner played a role in making the site's new
interactive capabilities a reality.
The new banking platform also is available via its iOS and
Android apps in their respective play stores.
As always, members can visit their local branch to conduct their
banking. Cardinal will continue to provide financial education to
adults in the community. Cardinal offers free monthly educational
workshops for home buying and quarterly financial wellness
sessions. Credit union members and non-members can meet at no
charge with certified financial counselors who can discuss
household budgeting, debt management, credit repair, and financial
problem solving.
Cardinal also offers integrated financial education programs to
five area high schools and Lakeland Community
College, where Cardinal operates several in-school branches.
It is here that students have a chance to learn more about positive
money management through a hands-on approach to finances.
