Mahalo Banking, a CUSO that provides online and mobile banking solutions for credit unions, today announced that Harrisonburg, Va.-based Park View Federal Credit Union (‘Park View’ – $350M in assets) is live on its enhanced thoughtful banking platform. The Mahalo platform enables the credit union to offer several new money management tools to modernize its member experience and enable more self-service options.

Serving 13,000 members globally, Park View is leveraging the Mahalo digital banking platform to provide features that streamline member processes for managing and moving money. Among the capabilities being implemented are real-time remote deposits with the ability to add custom memos, ACH origination through the core that creates a seamless money transfer experience and direct deposit allocations that enable members to easily schedule payments and transfers.

“In searching for a new digital banking provider, we wanted an innovative partner that could grow with us over the next decade and would integrate well with our core solution, Corelation Keystone,” said Tanya Holland, Director of Digital Operations with Park View. “It was essential that our partner could keep pace with rapidly evolving technology and deliver new features and functionality in a timely manner. We want to empower member self-service through our digital banking platform to mirror our branch services, and working with Mahalo enables us to do so seamlessly by acting as a strong extension of our core. ”

In addition, the credit union is offering real-time text and email alerts to better communicate important updates to members. To serve its philanthropic mission, Park View has also implemented a donation tool that enables members to make charitable contributions through the platform that are directly distributed to local nonprofits within the membership base.

Holland said, “Throughout the entire process, Mahalo has kept us abreast of all the implementation nuances, which is paramount to a successful product launch. We discovered that our teams are culturally aligned and have established a truly collaborative partnership. Their hands-on approach has led them to meet and exceed all of our deliverable deadlines, as well as achieve an excellent implementation.”
