TNB CARD SERVICES PROVIDES 1ST
COMMUNITY FCU INTEGRATED, SINGLE-SOURCE DEBIT
PROCESSING SOLUTION
DALLAS - January 30, 2006 - 1st Community Federal
Credit Union of San Angelo, Texas, now offers its
members access to their funds from more than 1.6
million ATM and retail locations. The credit union
has converted its PIN and signature debit card
processing to a single source solution offered by
TNB Card Services.
TNB's debit solution will allow 1st Community
Federal Credit Union to integrate PIN and signature
into one platform and save time, improve efficiency,
enjoy greater flexibility, and reduce the burden of
back-office tasks involved with debit and ATM
transactions. In addition, the product will help
reduce fraud, secure higher transaction approval
rates, and provide market-leading reliability and
uptime with PC-based point-and-click management
tools and provides 1st Community gateways to all
major ATM networks.
"Integrating our debit services is important
to streamlining our processes and improving
productivity," said George Sweet, executive
vice president of 1st Community Federal Credit
Union. "We look forward to the cost savings and
reduction of work in the back office associated with
multiple platforms. By combining the processing into
a single solution, we can better serve our members
and give them the same level of debit services at a
lower cost."
1st Community Federal Credit Union was originally
chartered in 1953 to serve only civilian employees
at Goodfellow Air Force Base. With six branches, it
now serves more than 25,000 members from 16 counties
in central and western Texas, and has $136 million
in assets.
1st Community has been a TNB client for more than
25 years and Sweet said there was no reason to do
business with another processor. Still, the credit
union did due diligence and evaluated other
processors before deciding to stay with TNB.
"TNB treats our members as if they are their
own. Customer service is important to us and TNB has
always delivered a high level of customer
satisfaction to us. The fact that we can now
integrate our debit card processing into one
platform was just another good reason to keep
working with TNB."
