Credit union invests in full suite of digital
services to enhance consumer banking and expand commercial banking
functions to improve financial wellbeing
Digital banking provider Tyfone today announced Diamond Credit
Union (Diamond) has selected its nFinia® Digital Banking platform
for commercial and retail account holders. Diamond selected the
platform for its configurability and ability to meet the digital
needs of both members and small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs)
in its community.
Pottstown, Penn.-based, chartered community-Diamond has $1
billion in assets and serves 66,000 members across Berks,
Montgomery, Chester and Bucks counties. The credit union was a
long-time customer of Cubus Solutions, which Tyfone acquired in
2023.
“We are constantly seeking technology that can enable us to
remain competitive and enhance the financial health and wellness of
our community,” said Rick Patel, CEO at Diamond. “After a rigorous
interview process and considering our future technology plans, we
knew that Tyfone would be the right choice for our banking
platform. At the end of the day, financial services are homogenous;
it's what can you do differently for your members and small
businesses. We believe we will have a best-of-breed solution with
Tyfone.”
“A driving force for us in this decision was the importance of
relationships,” said Jim Daly, SVP of IT at Diamond. “Tyfone
delivers what they say they are going to deliver. They listened to
our needs, collaborated with us and ensured we felt comfortable
making this decision. We value that we have a true partnership with
Tyfone because we need great tools to move our organization
forward.”
nFinia is a configurable, API-driven commercial and retail
banking platform. Its open infrastructure allows Diamond to
integrate with third-party retail and business applications to
support members’ specific needs.
Diamond is also leveraging Tyfone’s Skip-A-Pay and Quick Pay
solutions. These two loan payment solutions provide members with
financial relief and added convenience, while also providing new
revenue streams for the credit union. Skip-a-Pay is a fully
automated, loan payment deferral solution that allows members to
control their loan payments. Quick Pay enables members to pay loans
through a variety of sources with or without logging in to the
credit union’s app. The credit union plans to join Tyfone’s FedNow
Instant Payment Xchange (IPX), an instant payments solution
enabling account holders to send and receive money 24/7/365. Tyfone
is the third largest originator on the FedNow network, which has
grown to more than 700 participants since launching last
summer.
“At Tyfone’s core is its dedication to improving financial
wellness through innovation, and it is rewarding to work with
credit unions like Diamond that are motivated towards the same
goals,” said Siva Narendra, CEO of Tyfone. “Partnering with Diamond
to deploy our nFinia platform, Quick Pay and Skip-A-Pay solutions
will help the credit union grow engagement and deposits, which is
paramount in today’s competitive market.”
